NCAA - Oregon State

[rcrook]

MLB- Tampa Bay Rays
NHL- Los Angeles Kings
NFL- Houston Texans
NBA - Portland Blazers

[Ben09]

I'd follow them. Houston Oilers---->Tennessee Titans

[Mibabalou]

[Flags of Dawn]

2 picks for the Bengals. Interesting.

MLB - Minnesota Twins
NFL - Baltimore Ravens

NFL - Miami Dolphins
NBA - San Antonio Spurs
NCAA - Florida State Seminoles

[schenksta]

I'd follow them. Houston Oilers---->Tennessee Titans

Haha just because they move doesn't mean they cease to exist

[schenksta]

My only real team that i follow is the Yankees, so if for some crazy reason they folded, I guess i'd have to follow the Mets

[Neo Cassady]

MLB: currently Yankees, would be Dodgers
NFL: currently Browns, would be Jets
MLS: currently Crew, would be Red Bulls
NHL: currently Devils, would be Red Wings
NCAA FB/BB: currently Ohio State, would be too hard to choose, probably Purdue
NCAA hockey: currently Miami, would be Minnesota

[xbrokendownx]

devils woo! i assume that has something to do with andy greene going to Miami OH haha

[The Summer Ends]

i can't really just "choose" a new team. the teams i follow and love now are the result of years of following and loving.

[Flags of Dawn]

MLB: Chicago Cubs, LA Angels, Milwaukee Brewers
NFL: Denver Broncos, Baltimore Ravens, Arizona Cardinals
NBA: Chicago Bulls
NHL: Calgary Flames

gtfo.

[Cameronisonfire]

NFL: San Diego Chargers
NBA: Denver Nuggets
MLB: Baltimore Orioles

[Sventhegreat]

i can't really just "choose" a new team. the teams i follow and love now are the result of years of following and loving.

Then GTFO

[wroteurname]

[Flags of Dawn]

Its a BALL....and a GLOVE!

[Drew Beringer]

hahahahah, best reason yet.

[bernie16wb]

Can I switch from the Indians to the Indians from Major League?

[Flags of Dawn]

......

[xbrokendownx]

why so much love for the Brewers? lol



haha you knew i like a lot of the brewers players...i was rooting for them last year

[xbrokendownx]

Can I switch from the Indians to the Indians from Major League?



absolutely not

[Justin_stacy]

I'm pretty big on having a locational connection to the teams I follow, so if KC (Chiefs, Royals, Wizards) and Kansas (T-bones, Jayhawks, Wildcats) were to lose their teams I might just quit caring entirely. I know for sure that if the Royals folded or left town, MLB would be dead to me....without a salary cap its just barely a sport worth paying attention to anyways.

[Tyler Vagyler]

NCAA: currently UNC, would be Notre Dame
NFL: currently Panthers, would be Broncos
NHL: currently Hurricanes, would be Blackhawks
NBA: currently Bobcats, would be Denver Thuggets
MLB: currently Braves, would be Cubs
SOC: currently Man U, would be Real Madrid

[THE_SICKEST]

Philadelphia Eagles!

[I'm DC]

The way things are looking around here, maybe my teams should stop existing. When it happens.
MLB Now Royals- Then Twins
NFL Now Chiefs- Then Cowboys or The Bills ( I kinda cheated, Cowboys are my second favorite team.
NCAA Now Kansas Jayhawks Then Oregon Ducks
NHL Now Stars- Penguins

[bNz719]

NFL: currently Panthers, would be Falcons
NBA: currently Lakers, would be Boston
MLB: currently Angels, would be Yankees

[rcrook]

NFL: currently Panthers, would be Falcons
NBA: currently Lakers, would be Boston

there is zero way you can be a lakers fan and then root for the celtics and ditto with angels ----------> yankees

[MIKEY_HORROR]

Bengals to Saints
Bulls to Celtics
Cubs to Dodgers
Blackhawks to Penguins

[HometownHero]

NBA: Currently Blazers, would be Suns
NFL: Currently Seahawks, would be Titans
MLB: Currently Mariners, would be A's

[Oddpac87]

I hate my rivals too much to switch to them, hmm. Let's see.

NFL: Now, Steelers, would switch to Giants.
MLS: Now, Red Bulls, would switch to Crew??
MLB: Now, Mets, would switch to Red Sox.
NHL: Now, Penguins, would switch to Devils.
NBA: Now, Nets, would switch to...umm...I honestly don't know. Hate the Knicks, Sixers, Celtics. Maybe the Cavs.

[sleepyseanzzz]

MLB: Yankees>>>>The Amazing Mets
NFL: Colts>>>>>>Giants or Dolphins
NBA: Nets>>>>>>Bulls (I'm actually thinking of going back to my childhood team after the playoff appearance they had last year) or Knicks if they get Lebron or Iverson aka a reason to watch the Knicks
NHL: Devils>>>>> Rangers

[xbrokendownx]

haha 2 votes for the Dolphins huzzah!

and Iverson would not be a reason to watch the knicks. thats a disaster waiting to happen and it wont happen

also how the fuck can you go from being a devils fan to a rangers fan?

[VoiceoffCamera]

MLB: currently Brewers, would be Mariners
NFL: currently Packers, would be Titans
NBA: currently Knicks, would be Hawks
NHL: currently Devils, would be Capitals

MLB: Colorado Rockies
NFL: Baltimore Ravens

[FondestMemory]

If the steelers ever went away, id seriously never watch the nfl again.

Im more of a fan of my teams than i am of their sport. If i lost any of them, id be fine losing all interest in the sport as well.

[we are cured]

MLB: currently mets, to dodgers
NHL: currently rangers, to columbus blue jackets
NFL: currently jets, to whoever i enjoyed watching play at that moment (right now it would be cincinnati)

[poppa Q]

MLB: Cardinals ---> Rays/Twins
NBA: Bulls/Jazz ---> Celtics/Thunder
NFL: never really had a favorite team, just followed the league. I'm contemplating taking a rooting interest in the Ravens.
NHL: Blackhawks ---> Blues
CBB: Illini ---> Heels
CFB: Illini ---> the underdog

[Neo Cassady]

devils woo! i assume that has something to do with andy greene going to Miami OH haha

I grew up in Jersey, so I've been a fan my whole life, but when I moved to Ohio I started following the Blue Jackets more. Greene playing for NJ has definitely revived my interest, though.

[abcdefghijake]

My only real team that i follow is the Yankees, so if for some crazy reason they folded, I guess i'd have to follow the Mets

LOL that would suck.

[LastPlaceRocks]

NCAA hockey: currently Miami, would be Minnesota
Woo-hoo!

I'd probably just go back to the method of following the sport and not the team [worked for the NHL after the North Stars left] with the exception of NCAA Hockey - that sport would just be dead to me.

[Scott Weber]

This thread should be named "Ask a Seattle Sonics fan"

[Scott Weber]

That being said....


MLB: Tampa Bay Rays
NFL: New Orleans Saints
NBA: Portland Trailblazers/OKC Thunder

[StuGrimson]

MLB: If the Jays disappeard I wouldnt cheer for anybody

Every season I wish we would play some WCHA teams, and with the exception of mid-season tourneys (and our new arena's opening game vs. Denver), we never do.

[LastPlaceRocks]

Didn't you just play St. Cloud State? But yeah, that's one of the problems of only having three or four non-conference opponents [depending on the Alaska exemption].

[Neo Cassady]

Ah, good catch. That completely slipped my mind (and I even went to Oxford for that Saturday!). And as much as I love conference matchups, it'd be nice to see some more diversity in the schedule...although maybe that's just that I want excuses to travel to Minnesota/Colorado/etc.

[sleepyseanzzz]

haha 2 votes for the Dolphins huzzah!

and Iverson would not be a reason to watch the knicks. thats a disaster waiting to happen and it wont happen

also how the fuck can you go from being a devils fan to a rangers fan?

im not a big basketball fan but i just saw on espn yesterday how they are saying the knicks should get iverson and give the fans at least one reason to go to a game. as for the devils to rangers im not a hockey fan at all....but id rather keep all my favorite teams in the new york/new jersey area besides my football team (and no im not a frontrunner, i was raised a colts fan by colts fans who lived in baltimore when unitas played and when they moved up to my hometown and the colts moved to indy they stuck with the team.)

[xbrokendownx]

i dont think donnie walsh is stupid enough to sign iverson

[LastPlaceRocks]

I agree because it makes the Pairwise so unbalanced where basically the one conference that dominates the few non-conference games ends up getting five teams into the tourney. Plus you have teams like Minnesota and Wisconsin who only have one open weekend a year due to the College Hockey Showcase and their holiday tournaments and for the most part it's hard to get those caliber teams to travel for non-conference games [besides the Michigan/Michigan State showcase weekend, the U have traveled for a non-conference game something like twice in the past six years - once for Ohio State and once for BU opening up their new arena]. The best solution would be to have more games [as with only 34-36 games per season and most conferences having to schedule for twelve teams] but with the economy, few teams using hockey as a revenue sport and the fact that college hockey has the longest season already that won't happen.

Probably the best solution to getting out in WCHA country is traveling to one of the regionals or Frozen Fours; the Western one is almost always some combination of Denver, Minneapolis, St. Paul [neighboring cities but two different sites] or Madison.

[acfrue]

MLB: Cubs ---> Diamondbacks
NHL: Red Wings ---> Capitals or maybe the Oilers
NCAA: Notre Dame ---> uhhhhhhh, Western Michigan Univ. I guess.
NFL: Packers ---> Colts

[capnhook54]

NFL Now Chiefs- Then Cowboys or The Bills ( I kinda cheated, Cowboys are my second favorite team.


Man, you never want to be a Bills fan. Unless you like your heartbroken every week.


NBA: Currently Nets ---> 76ers
NFL: Currently Bills ----> Eagles
MLB: Currently Red Sox ----> Phillies
NCAA: Currently Kansas ---- > Nothing
NHL: Currently Sabres -----> Flyers

Good ol PA college having it's influence!

I'm saving my personal days this year for Detroit in April, but hopefully over the next few years I can use them for a trip out west.

[LastPlaceRocks]

This thread should be named "Ask a Seattle Sonics fan"
Or a LA Raiders/Rams fan, Hartford Whalers fan, Winnipeg Jets fan, Quebec Nordiques fan, Vancouver Grizzlies fan, Montreal Expos fan and a Charlotte Hornets fan, Houston Oilers fan, Minnesota North Stars fan and Cleveland Browns fan on a lower level.

[Scott Weber]

Or a LA Raiders/Rams fan, Hartford Whalers fan, Winnipeg Jets fan, Quebec Nordiques fan, Vancouver Grizzlies fan, Montreal Expos fan and a Charlotte Hornets fan, Houston Oilers fan, Minnesota North Stars fan and Cleveland Browns fan on a lower level.
Right...was just thinking recently...

[LastPlaceRocks]

So was I - those are all in the last fifteen years and fans of those teams have also been through the hypothetical.

[Scott Weber]

Alllllllrighty then.

[mattmatumbo]

I hate my rivals too much to switch to them, hmm. Let's see.

NFL: Now, Steelers, would switch to Giants.

NHL: currently Devils, would be Red Wings
NCAA FB/BB: currently Ohio State, would be too hard to choose, probably Purdue
NCAA hockey: currently Miami, would be Minnesota

Haha, Oddpac, you should just switch to Crew anyways, NeoCassady you could switch to Philly in like 4 months.

NFL: Currently Broncos, would switch to... The Cardinals.
NBA: Currently the Jazz, would stop watching basketball, or just go to UofU games
MLS: Currently Real Salt Lake, would switch to Chivas USA or the dreaded Crapids
MLB: Currently Rockies, would switch to... the Phillys or maybe Diamondbacks.

[sjb2k1]

[wuduprod]

NHL: Sabres ---> after i got done crying like a little girl a year later, Rangers

NFL: Bills ---> Giants

MLB: Yankees ---> Mets

NBA: Cavs ---> Knicks

[xbrokendownx]

someone would willingly root for the knicks?

[LastPlaceRocks]

Alllllllrighty then.
Yeah, I hope Seattle gets another NBA team in the near future [which is a good possibility given the number of franchises in trouble] because losing one of your sports teams is an experience I wouldn't wish upon anyone.

someone would willingly root for the knicks?
LBJ 2010!

well, if they got Lebron, yea obviously

[williek311]

[DCD08]

i would just stop watching sports altogether.

and i would spend my whole sunday sleeping. or drinking. or both.

[LastPlaceRocks]

well, if they got Lebron, yea obviously
It's either that or the Nets are just as bad and will be moving soon enough to Brooklyn, Newark or points west. Can't be a fun time to be a basketball fan in the Tri-State area.

[xbrokendownx]

the Nets have a promotion for 75 cent tickets tomorrow night, like 10 rows from the floor

no i am not joking

[I'm DC]

Man, you never want to be a Bills fan. Unless you like your heartbroken every week.


NBA: Currently Nets ---> 76ers

That is sad, although there's a good half-dozen teams in the NBA who have some sort of ridiculous promotion to get the fans in [same goes with the NHL and MLB].

[CubbyNick42]

MLB: Cubs --> White Sox
NFL: Bears --> Patriots

I don't actually like rooting for the under-dog, I picked entirely on organizations i've never hated, I'm a Vikings fan, but never had anything bad to say against the Lions, and I would still want to hate the packers ;)

[iheartmusic043]

Holy shit! haha

I guess no one noticed my sarcasm. I hate Philadelphia and their sports teams, minus the Eagles.

[Chris M.]

MLB: Red Sox --> Probably wouldn't have a favourite team. Red Sox and Blue Jays games are the only ones I'm able to watch with regularity.
NHL: Bruins --> Penguins

NFL- probably the bengals or saints
NBA- Bobcats, Wizards, Blazers

:highfive:

NHL: San Jose Sharks
MLB: Philadelphia Phillies
NFL: Bengals or Texans
NBA: Toronto Raptors/OKC Thunder

[pand75]

Or a LA Raiders/Rams fan, Hartford Whalers fan, Winnipeg Jets fan, Quebec Nordiques fan, Vancouver Grizzlies fan, Montreal Expos fan and a Charlotte Hornets fan, Houston Oilers fan, Minnesota North Stars fan and Cleveland Browns fan on a lower level.
It still hurts.

[ESundy36]

I get no love for picking the Oil? I see how it is. Haha.

[pand75]

I get no love for picking the Oil? I see how it is. Haha.
haha I only realized that you and acfrue chose them after I quoted his from the first page.

[LastPlaceRocks]

Both.

Edit: Didn't they also used to have clear boards, I always thought that was awesome.
Not sure - the only place that I know for sure had the clear boards was the St. Paul Civic Center up until the Moose AHL team showed up [something to do with bad sightlines].

It still hurts.
I know.

[ESundy36]

haha I only realized that you and acfrue chose them after I quoted his from the first page.

It's cool, you're already well aware of my closet Oil fandom.

Not sure - the only place that I know for sure had the clear boards was the St. Paul Civic Center up until the Moose AHL team showed up [something to do with bad sightlines].

Maybe that is what I am thinking of.
Edit: According to wikipedia the clear boards were needed to improve sightlines.
The Civic Center was unique in North America in that the hockey dasher boards were made of clear acrylic glass[/URL] from the shelf all the way down to the ice. This was because the arena's seating configuration was round, and the closest seats between the blue lines were not flush against the boards. The clear boards made for better sightlines for most spectators seated between the blue lines, since the seating angles in the Civic Center were shallow.
The clear boards were replaced with standard white dashers boards when the Minnesota Moose (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acrylic_glass) of the International Hockey League[URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Hockey_League_%281945 -2001%29"] played there, as the team needed to be able to sell advertising on the boards. This wrecked the sightlines for what should have been the best seats, and this illustrated that Saint Paul needed a new arena with appropriately-designed seating.

[LastPlaceRocks]

It wouldn't be surprising if one of Lake Superior States' titles happened at the Civic Center - they had to have one last Frozen Four between 1989 and 1997.
EDIT: Yep, 1994.

[zizou1790]

Mlb, Current Pirates , New Cardinals
Ncaa, Pitt > Miami
Nhl, Pens > Blues

And in 1993 in Milwaukee they were beaten by the juggernaut that was the 1992-93 UMaine Black Bears. Haha.

[LastPlaceRocks]

I don't know what Paul Kariya's numbers were off-hand, but it was something crazy like averaging 2.5 PPG.
