122 teams, is everybody covered?

[dixiehack]

Seeing Moddy's comment on the now-locked Steelers thread got me thinking. Do we have every one of the North American Big 4 pro sports franchises represented by a fan here on SportsJournalists.com? I know instinctively we have most of them covered, but I'm curious whether we have someone with a rooting interest who could carry on a real conversation about the Clippers, Jaguars or Grizzlies, for example. Myself, I've got the Titans and Predators covered (not that I'm alone there). Check in and see what we've got.

Nothing too unique here.

Bears
Bulls
White Sox
Blackhawks (to a much lesser extent)
University of Missouri

I guess I'd cover the four Detroit teams, especially Tigers and Red Wings, then it starts to wane some with the Lions and Pistons.




Nice idea. We obviously have Toronto covered. I wonder if there are any Montreal Canadien fans.

I hate sports.

I hate sports.

But you like NASCAR

 

[imjustagirl]

I get paid to watch NASCAR and know something about it. That's all I'm saying.

You got into this **** for a reason, and I don't think it was to cozy up to male lab partners in college.

Pirates
Steelers
Penguins
Sun Devils

You don't think covering sports for years can turn you off sports in your free time?

Hell, I covered for years and years and am just now starting to become more of a fan again, albeit, only a couple teams.

Yes it can, but I think "tired" of sports can be a descriptor than "hate."

Astros
Thunder
Avalanche
Broncos

Packers
Brewers
Bucks
University of Wisconsin
University of Cincinnati

This isn't a thread about the 21st century version of the ABA?

If you rooted for Cleveland teams, you hate sports too.

[imjustagirl]

No, 93's right. Hatred would imply I care enough to rally up feelings.

If you offer me the Super Bowl or a rerun of Dance Your Ass Off, I'm taking DYAO. I just literally could not care less about 99.7 percent of sports.

I used to hate it. Then it got exhausting to hate something so stupid.

 

[John]

I have some players I like but there's not a team I root for anymore.

Having grown up in Athens I'm happy when the Dogs do well, but I don't really care. Same for my alma mater, Ole Miss.

I want Federer to win every match and I don't like seeing him lose, same goes for Isner whom I've known for a long time now, but that's as close as I come to caring about the outcome of any sporting event.

 

[Bamadog]

Working in this biz, I do want to deal with sports less and less on my free time. Watch a lot of movies with Ms. Bamadog.

I like reading, especially military history. Just read Michael Durant's book about the 160th Special Operations Air Regiment, better known as the Nightstalkers. They flew all of those tricked up Blackhawks from "Blackhawk Down." Brave men. One of the pilots lost his thumb in a mission and requested to return to flying status with no thumb on his right hand. Whoa!

But anyway, for me, it's:
Alabama Crimson Tide
New Orleans Saints

That is when I'm watching sports, which is less and less these days. I haven't watched an NBA game in its entirety and voluntarily in five years. I just don't get the same wonderment I did once upon a time about the sporting world.

 

[Petrie]

Giants, Warriors, Niners, Sharks. All quite casual...I don't really watch much of the Big 4 outside of work. Instead, it's motorsports (F1 and motocross) and soccer (namely Aston Villa).

On the college circuit, Gonzaga (alma mater) and Idaho (has football, GU doesn't). I've grown to like the latter's football program more than the former's premier program, mainly because I think Few has lost his fastball. And his curveball. And maybe his changeup.

 

[Blitz]

I can speak for the Saints, too.
Been following the franchise since 1971 and my wife and I are current season ticket holders.

 

[HanSenSE]

I hear all of you when it comes to getting away from the games on days off. Still, there are two teams I still make time to watch and/or listen to, the Giants and the 49ers. Depending on my work schedule and mood, I like to keep up with the Suns, Sharks and San Jose State.
