Tell me about your team. 

Post#1 » by Lithium » Fri Jun 26, 2009 5:05 am

Hi.

All of my life I have been a basketball fan, and only recently have found I enjoy football as well. The problem is I really don't know much about the game, the teams, or the players.

What team do you support?

What draws you to that team?

What sets your team apart from others?

Thanks :)

I've been raised a Giants fan, which is odd because my dad grew up in south Jersey, a home to many more Iggles fans than Big Blue. Regardless of that, my dad has always loved the team because of their class and tradition. Plus, they're always a great defensive team, and have never had a very long stretch of horrible seasons since the 70s.

I'll probably be a Giants fan til the day I die. Or am killed by a Cowboys/Iggles fan.

Packers. My bought me a packers jacket (she just bought it cuz greens my fav colour and had no idea the giant g on the back meant anything) when I was like 10 and then everyone that saw wearing it assumed I liked the packers and told me stuff like packers suck and all that. It wasn't until a few years after when I started watching the nfl and just loved the packers. That jacket was one of the main reasons why I am a packers fan. And I am really loyal to my teams so I stuck with them for the past like 7-8 years.

My team has the most passionate and loyal fans in the game. The only thing we haven't done is win a Super Bowl. We've been to the NFC Championship 5 times in 8 years but haven't gotten the job done..yet. But McNabb will lead us to a ring soon.

I am a lifelong Redskins fan who has lost complete interest in football thanks to the arse clown Vinny Cerrato.

Grew up in greater Cleveland rooting for the Lions because everyone else rooted for the Browns or Steelers and I had to be different. It really helped the cause when Chris Spielman, my all-time favorite player, became a Lion.

We have finally hit bottom after several flirtations with bottoming out. This year will be very improved but still lucky to win more than 4 games.

Since I've been working in the industry I really don't root with the passion for or against anyone anymore. I root more for individual players that I know and like, against some of them too. It still warms my heart when the Ethnic Slurs are lousy though--that goes back to my burning hatred of Joe Theisman.
It's not whether you win or lose, it's how good you look playing the game

What team do you support? Pittsburgh Steelers

What draws you to that team? hard hits, and hard nosed football. football being played the right way its supposed to be played

What sets your team apart from others? defense and toughness

born in pittsburgh bleed the black and gold and have IMO the best run organization in the NFL bar none. best ownership steady great head coachs everything you need from the top to make it work on the field.

Thanks :)
