Who is your Favorite?

[Bluemound Freak]

I know that when you gamble you don't have a favorite, you pull for the best line! But I'm curious on who you guys really like, all gambling aside! Who is your favorite college team? Who is your Favorite Pro Team? Are you Alumni? Why is this your favorite Team do you live there?


College: Auburn Tigers ( Alumni 98 )

Pro: Philladelphia Eagles ( Donovan McNabb is my all time favorite QB, well he is now! I have pulled for these boys for about as long as I can remember and now it looks as if it might pay off, SB Champs maybe?)

I know a couple of the answers so far: Jack (Ravens) Hellah
(Toledo) Dawgball ( Georgia Tech ) but what about the rest of ya?

Favorite College team

Grew up in Austin (not a UT alum though) and always watched them on tv as a kid. Didn't really take a major interest in their athletics program until maybe the late 80's when a close friend of mine used to get us both in to all of the games for free. That's all it took and I've been hooked (pun intended) ever since.


Favorite Pro team

Since I'm not a huge fan of the NFL anymore like I used to be, the Cards have to be my overall favorite pro team. It's sort of like a family tradition. My grandfather was a fan of theirs when he was a kid, then my dad, and of course I was hooked ever since I could shit green. Nothing more enjoyable to me than watching Ozzy, Willie McGhee, and Vince Coleman play together in the 80's. That was when everything was simple....no free agency and enormous player salaries. I sincerely miss those days.

You got that right! G Tech is my favorite team to kick the shit out of!!!!:moon:

You can add Tennessee to that list as well. Now that Spurrier is gone, we may be able to do something there, too.

Update: UGA football 4th in the country in recruiting right now.

Quick story about ryson.......

First of all imagine a shorter version of Wally Szczerbiak with a deep, raspy voice and all geeked up like he was on speed. Throw into the mix about 10 Bud Lights and him going to watch his favorite team (Giants) in Enron Field and you have your typical loud obnoxious fan that drove everyone around us nuts!

I didn't mind though, nor did our other friends who were with us...in fact, we thought it was fuhking hilarious. His favorite player, Barry Bonds, is right next to us off the left field line. So, throughout the entire game, all anyone could hear was this loud white dude chanting "Barry! Barry!". Needless to say, the Stros were getting beat up pretty good and the place was kind of quiet so it was impossible not to hear him. Jose Lima was the starter for the Stros that night and he got on him pretty good also. I'll never forget, he kept yelling "Casa Ole' hey!" which, if anyone here is from Houston, would know that he owns a popular restaurant with that being his motto.

We had people telling him to shut the hell up, others throwing peanuts (almost had to scrap over that), even my ears were ringing a little. The crowd had the last laugh though and there only chance to even the score with the heckler. In between innings, they have this guy that walks around with a basketball goal on top of his shoulders and another girl who throws fans a miniature basketball in order to take a shot at the goal (mainly for the kids) to kind of bring some excitement to the crowd and get everyone pumped up. Well, I don't know how he managed to get the ball but he was about 5 feet from the goal and put up an airball and the crowd just went nuts! Here was his chance to shine and put a nail in the coffin on a complete kick ass night and he wiffs it.

Being the good sport that he is though, he kindly turned to the crowd and bowed and everyone started clapping. I think he actually won the crowd over and it definitely helped his chances of getting out of their safely.

Thanks for the entertainment Rod! We absolutely have to do it again!

Felonius, i need to get a hold of that UT logo so i can use it as my avatar, guess i have to wait until you hit 500 posts.

favorite college team- of course the eyes of TEXAS are upon you! UT, my dad ran track there so needles to say, i grew up a huge Horns fan and now I go to law school here so I still pull for the Horns very much.

Dallas Stars for hockey, after graduating college, I lived in Dallas for a year and got the chacne to attend about 10 games the year the Stars won the Stanly Cup(a buddy of mine and myself even drove up to Dallas from Austin one day and scalped Stanley Cup tickets to game #1, by the way the tickets were about 120 each, we got them 2 minutes before the ouck dropped at 40 a pop, goes to show how retarded people in Dallas still don't get up for hockey..) Fell in love with the game watching it live, nothing like it, those players have some ungodly skill, #1 tough guy sport..

played baseball in college but i find it difficult(as i'm sure a lot of others do) to root for some of my favorite teams now(texas rangers) as players change so much. I just dont get as enthralled as I used to, rooting for uniforms isnt quite the same nowadays(unless i was some gay fashion designer)
