JQK Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 Something i've noticed on these boards is that most people have a second favorite team. A team they'll root for if their own isn't doing well, or just a team they have an affinity for. List them here.NHL #1 - New Jersey DevilsNHL #2 - Boston BruinsNFL #1 - New York GiantsNFL #2 - New York JetsMLB #1 - New York YankeesMLB #2 - Washington NationalsNBA #1 - Boston CelticsNBA #2 - New York Knicks Stay Tuned Sports Podcast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roger Clemente Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 NHL #1: Mighty Ducks of AnaheimNHL #2: Ottawa Senators (reason)NHL #3: Toronto Maple LeafsMLB #1: Toronto Blue Jays (though I get less and less excited about them every year)MLB #2: There is no better time to say it (although it's probably likely I'll be ridiculed for it) I might as well officially declare it the Chicago White Sox. Since 1994, I've had a strange attraction to this team. My uncle bought me a pack of white socks with the SOX logo on them and I thought they were the coolest thing ever. And the Sox alternate jersey is one I've been itching to get for the past three years because it's such a damn nice jersey.NFL #1: Pittsburgh SteelersNFL #2: I can't really say for certain....probably the New Orleans Saints, even before the hurricane...then again, there's a part of me that I wouldn't mind seeing the Indianapolis Colts succeed for once.NBA #1: Hell if I know.NBA #2: That's an even tougher one.--Roger "Time?" Clemente, post #3800. Follow me on Twitter if you care: @Animal_Clans.My opinion may or may not be the same as yours. The choice is up to you.

Korkie Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 I don't have back-up favorites, but if my teams (philly teams) are not in the playoffs I will find someone to root for. Some examples of this:- This year's White Sox- Houston Rockets championship teams (Hakeem was my fav. player)- 2003-04 Calgary Flames- 2001 NE Patriots "The views expressed here are mine and do not reflect the official opinion of my employer or the organization through which the Internet was accessed."Dr. Kelso: My son is a big baseball fan. Not so much playing it, but more the designing and sewing of uniforms.Tyler: That's neat.Dr. Kelso: No, it's not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
