    I'm still laughin' at how Al Davis' half-dead ass gave Larry Brown all that money to sign him the next year and then he was out of the league in a couple of years. ? prolly still spendin' that Raider money. smh

    Always rooted for SDSU, Padres & Lakers.

    My mom was a die hard Charger Fan, dad die-hard raiders fan so I never had an official NFL team as a kid. I just liked certain players or coaches and would follow them wherever they went. I am a Charger fan officially...rootin for the hometeam. I still root for my favorite players' team but ? 'em if they're playin the Chargers.

    It's best to root for teams in certain cities in your state, but if you do root for another team in a different state just be a true fan and make sure you don't look like a bandwagon fan. You gotta stay consistent and follow them for years, then you will a true fan.

    Well i started liking the niners in 87...when i first saw them play (Montana+Rice) together that ? was like poetry in motion...i had never seen a offensive machine run so smooth like that...and they had Lott on D knocking ? heads off, so it was a perfect blend...i don't dislike the skins but them ? will have you pulling out your hair if you a fan lol

    I like rooting for the underdog...

    When L.A. had their dynasty in the early 2000s, I hated Kobe & Shaq. I thought Kobe was a ? ? always getting stole on by other players LOL. It didnt help that they trampled my beloved Sixers in a 4-1 Finals series after A.I. put up a marvelous performance in Game 1. However, after 2005, Kobe was Ja Rule status.

    Kobe had the ? trial, Shaq sonning him by winning with Miami, Smush & Kwame as teammates, most fans starting to gravitate towards Tmac/a young Lebron/Melo/Wade & getting embarrassed by PHX twice. I started ? with the ? because eventhough he was taking L's consistently, he was ballin like a real ? . I respected his realnigganess despite the ? he was goin through & i started following.

    Then Pau came & now the fun's over. I like rooting for the underdog. Now we the HNIC.

    My teams:
    Los Angeles Lakers
    Philadelphia Eagles (I Bleed Green bruh)
    Philadelphia Sixers (Not really my squad but, out of respect to my area)

    Pacers & Colts and nobody else since 94. I started out as a Bulls fan only cuz of MJ and WGN showed all their games but when MJ retired I flirted with the Hornets (my fam is in NC) and the Magic. Pacers swept the Magic in the playoffs and I haven't looked back! For college basketball & football I like Purdue.
