Message: [QUOTE="SoCalCanine, post: 5051581, member: 803"] I have never understood these types of fans who CHOOSE to be fans of teams. That is not how I became a fan of any of the teams I root for. I have been BORN into my Fandom. I have always rooted for UConn, the Red Sox, the NY Giants and the Celtics cause my Dad rooted for those teams. Growing up in Fairfield in the 60s, when all my friends were Yankee fans, and the Sox sucked and the Yankees were great, I tried many times to not be a Sox fan! But for me, that's not how it works. I am stuck with my fandom for life. I cannot relate to folks who switch their allegiances like I change my shoes. [/QUOTE]
