Seriously question, and try to be honest: Do you think you are bias towards teams from Cincinnati, or do you consider yourself to be completely objective?

If you're an employed sports writer...you eventually will lose your interest in being a true crazed fan of any team. Honestly, first because you have to find that line between objectivity and being a fan at first.
Then, the longer you do it, you find out what most of these guys are like, you see alot of the bs that goes on, you find out stuff about teams, players, that you wish you didn't know and you just lose interest in being a fan and just do your job.
Seriously...you HAVE to be objective and I could draw that line. Not being able to not only effects your work, but your reputation. I never had a problem separating objectivity from homerdom.
MANY sportswriters can't...and they suffer for it eventually.

Follow up question: If this is the case, can you truly ever be a fan of any team?
