Why do you like that team? Posted on 10-26-2005

Why do you like your favorite teams? I'm a Alabama Crimson Tide fan because 1/2 of my family is on the Tide side, and the other half are the AU Tiger fans. I started liking Alabama after they went undefeated in 1992. These days, I know 3 of the guys that play for them (Darby, Robinson, and Vic Horn). UA was my top college choice all through high school. 7-0! Roll Tide! I'm a Tennessee Titans fan because some of my older relatives were big Earl Campbell (Houston Oilers) fans. I grew up liking Warren Moon because of their influence. Think of how happy we were when the moved about 100 miles north of our town (from Houston to Nashville) in the mid 90s! Plus, their first pick after moving to Nashville was Joey Kent from the Tennessee Vols. His folks are family friends, and he graduated from the same high school I went to, 10 years before I graduated from it. I'm a Laker fan (again) because of my older relatives. We were always laker fans. Even when they struggled through the 90's. Kobe's making it hard to be a Laker fan these days, tho. So why do ya'll like who you like?
