What?
I guess my fandom runs in degrees.

Huge cardinal fan and follow the team all year long.

Suns, D-backs, Yotes- I pay attention when they are in the playoffs. I don't follow drafts and training camps like I do the Cards but I like the teams and hope they do well. Maybe I just don't have the attention span to follow 162 game seasons or something.

Your poll doesnt have enough options and is completely flawed.

Word!

I grew up a LA Rams fan, then the Seahawks started up in '76 but I pretty much remained a Rams fan until I moved here.

Same goes for the Dodgers and Mariners. But I've been a Diamondbacks fan from their start. My baseball fandom was still scorched from the '94 strike when I got here, so I felt no loyalty to any baseball franchise.

In hockey, I still like the LA Kings...but I support the Coyotes more now...they brought a Cardinals-esque history of ineptitude from Winnipeg that they still haven't shaken off yet.

I'm still a Sonics fan. I still have my program I got from my first game back in '72. If they end up stiffing the city and moving to Oklahoma City, I'll be a Suns fan.

-Suns since 76.
-Cards since 88. Before that, I was a Steelers fan cause my neighbor was from PA, and that who he liked, now I root for the Donkeys too, due to my time there, and only post Elway.
-Dbacks, when I pay attention to Baseball ie: pennant time
-Yotes
- BEAR DOWN!

Longhorns because that's where I got my degree. 2005 BCS Champs
St.Louis Baseball Cards because of KMOX. 2006 World Series Champs
Spurs because, even tho I don't really like NBA, are just down the road in San Antonio. 2007 NBA Champions.
Arizona Cardinals because I don't have any better sense. 2008 SuperBowl Champs.

Absolutely love my hometown teams!! Love the Suns and also our soon to be world series champions! I watch the Yotes every now and then but since I don't know all the rules and stuff, I don't understand it. Sorry but I just can't watch any WNBA team.

GO D-BACKS!!! POST US A WIN FOR GAME ONE TONIGHT!!!

MESA! :thud:
Total homer. All AZ teams. I occasionally root for the Bills (born in Buffalo & my grandpa played for them WAY back)...but if they were ever to play the Cards...I'd pray that the Cards stomp them into the ground.

I'm new to backing the Cards...never really had one team I rooted for before, but as far as the rest of the AZ teams go--I could never root for any other teams.

Arizona Cardinals
St. Louis Cardinals
Grew up a NY Knicks fan, but I've grown to enjoy watching the Suns
Montreal Canadiens
Syracuse Orange

It all started because my Dad & I were diehard baseball Cardinal fans in the early 60's. When I started watching football in 1964, I realized there was a football Cardinal team also. I then convinced my Dad that we should root for BOTH St. Louis Cardinal teams. He still gives me grief that I talked him into that!!!! I stuck with the Cardinals when they moved to AZ, even though I was PISSED. I lived in MD then & wanted the Cards to move to Baltimore instead. If the Cardinals had changed their nickname & the uni's changed, then I probably would be a Colts fan today.

AZ all the way!

Rabid Cards/Suns fan - don't know if it's possible to love one more than the other. Was a big enough D-Backs fan back in 2001 to spend pretty much every dime I had to fly back to AZ for both weekends of the World Series to figure out someway to go to Games 1, 2, 6 and 7 of the World Series. Already attended the first big moment of the D-Backs new era, going to see Wrigley to see the sweep live in person. That being said, it's definitely my third favorite sport and a distant one at that, even though they probably gave me the greatest sports rush of my life (nothing can come close to Game 7 at this point).

Yotes - hockey still exists?

I was a Cardinals fan from afar, and didn't have any local loyalty. But, I ended up going to ASU, and became a Sun Devils fan. Since I never had a basketball, baseball, or hockey loyalty, it's been nice to come here. I'm definitely a Suns fan now, but as far as the Dbacks and Yotes go, I only really have a passing interest. I'm happy to hear that they've won, but I'll never actively root for them.
