Re: Undying fan loyalty? Why?

I don't know. It kind of sucks, but I don't think I could get nearly as excited as I did when the Cubs were in the playoffs a few years ago if I just switched to Cleveland or Oakland right now (I just like Frank Thomas in case the avatar is confusing anyone).
I don't have a problem with rooting for another team though. I think there's a difference between being a fan of a team and wanting a team to do well. I couldn't explain it though.

this is me. i decided a couple of years ago (ironically, around the same time the cubs made a few of their best trades ever) that it's more logical to root for a team that makes smart decisions than one who happened to be on tv when i was a kid. i want the A's to do well, but i still can't get emotionally invested watching one of their games. it's funny how that works.
