Why is your team(s) your team?

[Houston]

Basically why do you like your favorite team(s)? Is it because of your home town, did your father always watch them, is your favorite player on that team, do you like the style of football that they play? etc.....

I like The Texans because it's my home team, and because of that I can easily watch every one of their games without having to have some NFL TV package. They have alot of potential and should make the playoffs this year.

I started to like the Jaguars 2 seasons ago because of their style of play and the type of team they had.

I don't remember exactly why I started to like the Steelers I just do. I didn't bandwagon them either because I didn't like them back when they won the superbowl against he Seahawks.

Wait so you have 3 favorite football teams? And two are in the same division? And you're not a bandwagon fan because you used to not be a Steelers fan? Wouldn't that mean the exact opposite?

As for my teams, it's simple. The city I grew up in, the college I attended. Nothing more.

Those are the 3 main teams that I like and follow. Never said "these are my 3 favorite teams"

growing up in Michigan in the 80's the Lions the lions sucked and never could sell out their home games so I never saw them instead every week the Dallas Cowboys were on TV, so there you go

You suck HB.

And no. Im not in the mood to justify why i like the team i do.

Lololol @ ur favs. You fruit.

Simple question, why do you like the teams that you do.

If you don't feel like answering it then move along and don't post for all I care, nobody is making you, and I sure as hell don't care if you don't like the thread topic.

Saints- I lived in biloxi when I was younger and went to many home games with my dad. Don't have the heart to pick another favorite...

It must have been a slow football day, there's no other reason for houstonboy to post this shit.

I started to like the Chargers because of LT five years ago but after going to the past two Chargers at Bills games at Ralph Wilson I like the entire team.

Grew up in Indiana, been watching The Colts on television and watching my mother scream and bitch ever since the 1994 playoff loss to pittsburgh in the AFC championship game. I was 5 years old.

been watching since the Jim Harghbaugh, Marshall Faulk, and even the fat ass Tony Saragusa days. and there isn't another team in the NFL I give a shit about, didn't ever watch college football until this year.

I love Indianapolis, I love Indiana, its my home, I plan to move back to my home when I get out of school. That's why I love Indianapolis, because I love Indiana, I love everything about Indiana, from the shitty parts of Gary to the rich snobby parts of Carmel, to the flat corn fields in Southern Indy, I love it all. and the colts are just a part of that.

I bleed blue baby.

Grew up in Massachusetts. Tis all. Been rooting as long as I can remember.

Grew up in KC...whole family is die-hard...even the women.

Grew up 20 minutes from Detroit, still live there obviously. I did live in Illinois for a year and a half but I stayed true to my Michigan teams. The Illinois head football coach actually came to our elementary school because he was friends with a teacher, I wore my Charles Woodson jersey the day he came in defiance. He just laughed and told he was glad Woodson was gone.

That was completely off topic but whatever.

I will be Lions fan until I die, through all the dumb draft picks and questionable front office selections. One day, we'll accidentally win a Super Bowl.

Same User. I feel you 110%.

I live in Indiana, been here nearly my whole life, except for a short 2 year stay in Chicago. I've always loved sports, and watched the Colts every Sunday with my dad and grandfather.

Been through the hard times [Aaron Bailey] and the good times [Super Bowl] and I wouldn't give up any of the memories I have of the Colts for anything.

There's not a chance I could ever love another team as much as I love the Colts, and I bleed more than blue. I bleed Colts.

Hometown team. Thats it.

 

[red33]

Hometown team when they were in LA. All the cholos were raiders fans and all the tools were SF or GB fans so i picked the Rams. I always liked the LA underdog teams. My fav basketball team is the Clippers but ia dopt the LAkers in the postseason since well you its the clippers. ANd my fav baseball team before were the Angels but I dont care too much about baseball. I watch Angels and Dodgers really.

Also i like Patriots not cause they won 3 SBs but because I like how they stratagize, win SBs.
