Sports teams we like

List the sports you like, and your favourite teams from each sport, and maybe even why you support them. Could be cool, and could also lead to some healthy banter on days when our teams play each other :-D

I'll start:

Football (soccer): West Ham United (because my dad supports them and grew up in East London.

Rugby Union: London Wasps (gotta support the London team).

Rugby League: Leeds Rhinos (when I started enjoying Rugby League, they were playing very attractive rugby)

Cricket: Surrey (based on the fact I live in Surrey)

Football (American): Dallas Cowboys (they had a good team when I started watching it).

Baseball, Basketball and Ice Hockey I enjoy watching but have never felt the need to support a team as such.

Let's hear yours!

College Football - Iowa Hawkeyes (as an Iowan, it's the thing to do!)
College Basketball - Iowa Hawkeyes

Pro Football - Washington Redskins and Chicago Bears (Redskins because that's my hubby's team and Bears because it's my Dad's)

I heard this joke once and thought it was funny.
You know what NASCAR stands for?




Non Athletic Sport Centered Around Rednecks. HAHA

I love Nascar. My bestfriends Grandad used to race Nascar. Back in the old days with Marty Robbins. He actually had Dale Earnhardt Drive his car before he made the big time.

[The Texan]

NFL: I don't really have a favorite team. Well, I do, but they're not doing so hot anymore. San Francisco 49ers.

NHL: I just like the aggression of hockey, don't really have a favorite team.

MLB: Don't really have a favorite team, but I do like the Red Sox.

Basketball: San Antonio Spurs.

 

[carolinasteve]

pro sports are as follows:
FOOTBALL: I used to like th e49ers, but I more enjoyed watching Montana and Young and Rice connect for exciting plays. NOw I am a converted(thank you dear) and concerned Carolina Panthers fan.
BASKETBALL: I don't enjoy NBA at all, not since Larry Byrd, Magic Johnson, and Micheal Jordan-pre 1st retirement.
BASEBALL: Not a real fan of baseball, but I will watch the Boston Redsocks, but I honestly don't know why I have liked them since Mo Vaughn and John Valentin played.
HOCKEY: Don't understand all of the rules
SOCCER: Used to play, but don't like to watch it

college:
UNC all the way. I do pay more attention to the basketball team than the football team, but then again, who doesn't?

 

[ChildOfGod]

Football~Atlanta Falcons......yeah I know we got issues right now but I still have to stick by them!

Baseball~ I guess the Alanta Braves....but dont really watch it much. As for college baseball I go with Texas A&M......My nephew will be playing for them this year!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't wait.......he's awsome!!!!!

NASCAR~ Dale Sr. untill he past and now I pull for Dale Jr.

I dont really care much for anything else....basketball, hockey, ect.....

 

[Staples1973]

i only really like fitba (football or soccer) my fav team is celtic

 

[el Pollo]

College: University of Arizona Wildcats
MLB: Arizona Diamondbacks
NBA: Phoenix Suns
NFL: San Francisco 49ers
NHL: Not a huge fan, but I might as well support the Carolina Hurricanes
NASCAR Sprint: Junior # 88 Chevy
NASCAR Nationwide: David Ragan #6 Ford

Why? Tucson, Az is my hometown. That explains most. I'm a 49ers fan because my mom was born in San Francisco ( my nana immigrated there from Canada in the 20s), Hurricanes because I didn't really have much interest in hockey until I moved to NC. Junior because when he has the right hardware, he's a spectacular driver. Ragan because the company I work for sponsors his team.
