The staff in my grouphome when I was about 13 were all diehard Bucs fans and got me into it. Then the exciting early 00s defenses hooked me. I was a fan until a year or two after the Superbowl win over the Raiders.

I just kinda lost interest and fell away after that. With signing of Brady and exciting young core though of Godwin, Evans etc I decided this year I'm gonna follow again.

You use the word "fan" loosely, but I don't even think you can use it at all.

As for me, I'm from Wisconsin. If you don't root for Green Bay, you're from the northwestern corner of the state, your dad's a transplant, or you decided to be the **** kid who liked your father's agony. I became cognizant during Favre's groove, and fully caught the bug in 95 when I was 7.

At that point, I had the misfortune of being absolutely loyal to the home town teams, particularly the one in my favorite sport in basketball. Here I waited 24 years for a transcendent team to come along and the season is going to get canceled.

LOL worthy.

I find Wilson absolutely insufferable. Same with Watt (and he was at UW when I was), though not to the same degree.
