Yeah, I know...

Dad is from Cleveland, and his cousin sells BMWs to players, so the Tribe was a slam dunk since I was like six. I'm from Texas, so Mavs LDO. Mom is from STL, there were no Browns when I got into football, and I grew up hating the Jerry Jones and his Cowboys drug ring...the Rams were really the only natural choice for me. And now I'm at Purdue.

BTW, I hate you people who root for different colleges in different sports. Rooting for Texas basketball and Michigan football is retarded...pick one school.

Totally agree with Kos. One college only. That's like me being a PSU football fan and an Ohio State basketball fan.

I had a guy on my hockey team who cheered for the Wolverines in basketball, Michigan State for football, and Michigan Tech for hockey. It would kinda make sense if he was from Michigan, but the dude was from Mississauga Ontario.

Just as an aside, imo college sports allow you a one-time transfer of loyalty from your childhood rooting interest to your alma mater. (ie if you grow up in Pittsburgh rooting for Pitt and then go to Penn State, you may transfer loyalties to Penn state).

There are very few other times when a transfer of loyalty is allowed.

Agreed?

You can root for whoever you want for whatever reason you want. That said...

NFL: New Orleans Saints
MLB: Atlanta Braves
NBA: Dallas Mavericks
NCAA: LSU

NFL and MLB haven't changed since I was born. I didn't care about the NBA until recently.

Also, being a fan of multiple colleges is perfectly okay in my book. I grew up a huge Kansas sports fan because my dad went there and was a fan. I've always liked the Badgers and now I go to Wisconsin. I can't support both teams? Sorry, that doesn't work for me.

I do agree with only rooting for one pro team, though.
