It was actually Stewart (who landed on top of Labonte, his teammate) who rode around on his roof that race

Of course you're right. Memory's getting fuzzy

My diecast span a little more time than that, more like 97-03 but I really doubt they ever bring any money. None of them are in the box or anything

Yeah, my brothers and I actually used to play with 'em. Like make model tracks on the floor of the house with masking tape and shite Definitely didn't collect 'em to sell, but man we have some great memories.

Family got me started rooting for Tenn in 97 and we all know how that turned out. Had family connections to the Cardinals and that has turned out great, I now believe every fan should get to experience something like the 2011 season and i certainly never expect to again. And the Titans are well, the Titans

Everyone's got a cross to bear

Mom went to Michigan and Dad to A&M, so I grew up rooting for both (got a chance to see the Griese/Woodson Wolverines win it all the year after your Vols did). Been a fan of the Spurs since before Tim Duncan and the championships, too, so that's been a fun era to watch, but I know it's drawing quickly to a close. The turnaround from losing in the Finals in 2013 to winning it all against the same foe in 2014 is literally the greatest ride I have ever been on as a sports fan. They could never win another title in my lifetime and I'd be thankful I got to witness that.

Cowboys for the NFL--grew up watching Aikman/Smith/Irvin, but it's been a bit of a drag since then, obviously
