Total and complete bullcrap !!!

I grew up watching football with my oldest brother. Da aints & the Dolphins. My bro didn't really like that I liked Miami. I was one of the biggest aints fans for a long time -like you better not bad mouth my boys! So many years of having the lead over everybody and then lose,having George Roger's lead the league in rushing offense and can't get it done. Bobby Hebert and Eric Martin picking teams apart with the short passing game moving the ball at will- but can't get it done. I lost so much $$$ on em over the years,they're the reason I have stomach & heart problems today. So ,many years ago I realized da aints would never be worth a damn and dropped their pitiful asses. Hell, Tulane used to have more banners hanging in the rafters than da aints. So, yea I CANT STAND EM !

Yeah, was a Thrashers fan, but largely pull for the Preds now.

When I give a shite at all, anyhow.

Yep, was a Bucks fan, but outside of 2000 they were mostly horrendous for most of my life. I moved out of state in 2009 and just stopped watching them. Part of it was they were never on national TV, the other was years of garbage play. I didn't have a favorite team until I moved to New Orleans in 2013 and got into watching the Pelicans with AD and Jrue. 8 years later and I still follow the Pels.

I was too young to care about the oilers. Growing up my favorite NFL team was whoever I like to play with on blitz.

Was a huge randy moss and Tampa guy.

I am very apathetic Texans fan now. Stayed loyal to the rest of my Houston teams

Yeah I was a fan of the Yankees when I was younger because Bernie Williams was my favorite player and lots of Cajuns fans are fans of the Yankees due to Ron Guidry. I realized their fans were douche bags


You think Yankees fans are douche bags?

Yes, only because there wasn’t a local NBA team prior to the Hornets moving to NOLA.

I was a Shaq fan from LSU to Orlando to the Lake Show, tapering off around the Heat years which roughly coincided with NOLA getting a team.

Absolutely, grew up a Laker fan and stayed one for nearly 30 years, but I didn't like the way it ended with Shaq and didn't particularly like Kobe or the Zen Master, so I just didn't like them anymore.

Grew up wearing an Emmitt Smith jersey. Became a Saints fan since 2002.

No but I like some players and will follow the team they’re with a little while they are there and root for them. My team always stays the same though.

I liked the Rockets and Mavericks before the Thunder showed up to OKC.

Thunder will forever be my team now though.

After what they did to Jerry Richardson I am seriously considering it.

I switched my EPL teams but I dont really think that counts. I started off as a Chelsea fan after watching them go on a miracle run to win the Champions League back in 2012. Came to understand that all they do is buy talent and dont really develop much homegrown talent combined with their owner being Putins personal banker it turned me off of them. I switched to Tottenham because much like my pro teams in Atlanta, they never win it all and when they come close to doing that they lose in the most heartbreaking fashion. Seemed appropriate

I was a Sixers fan growing up and faded out after Barkley left. I ended up being a Spurs fan, due to Robinson, then swapped to the Hornets/Pelicans when they moved to Louisiana.

Been a Redskins fan my whole life. Kind of on the fence now, but they were really fun last year and look to be on the cusp. Would hate to swap now and they go on some epic run..
