I know this is going to seem all over the map.. but hopefully I've explained myself well. I have a reason for my fandom being all over the map.

1. Gamecock Athletics (my alma mater, my mothers alma mater, in order of preference)
- Gamecock Football
- Gamecock Women's Basketball
- Gamecock Baseball
- Gamecock Men's Basketball
2. Los Angeles Sports (half of my family (dad's side) is from the West Coast, spent summers in Cali growing up)
- Lakers
- Dodgers
3. Washington Redskins (my place of birth, I'll always feel connected to DC sports because of that)
4. UCLA Bruin Athletics (my father's alma mater)
- Bruin Men's Basketball
- Bruin Football
5. Arsenal FC (I remember freshman year in college everybody was on the ManU bandwagon and I didn't wanna follow the bandwagon.. at the time I was "dating" a foreign student from London that was an Arsenal fan, so I started watching more UEFA football, all of the big leagues mostly. I thought Chelsea was too pretentious for my personality so I decided to become an Arsenal fan).
6. Washington Nationals (hometown connection)
7. Miami Hurricanes Football (I'm a child of the 90's and they were all the rage in college football back then, kinda like how everybody liked Emmitt Smith but hated the Cowboys or Michael Jordan but despised the Bulls... Miami was the "Alabama" of the day)
8. Michigan Men's Basketball (see above, I'm a 90's baby.. the Fab Five, that is all)

**Now that LA has NFL football back (LA Rams) and is getting a new MLS club (LAFC) I'm looking forward to becoming a fan of both.

Other WBB teams I'm fond of and would probably root for in cases where it doesn't hurt SC... Maryland (I was a huge Alyssa Thomas fan), Stanford (I've always been fond of and respected the Ogwumike sisters, they whooped on SC pretty good a few times during their careers) and Baylor (Sims and Griner introduced me to the sport, watching them got me hooked on WBB).

M-m-m-m-m. Funny, but I don't see any UConn in there. Personally I am deeply hurt.

Haha.. well I hang out on the Boneyard a lot as a visiting fan so I figured it was implied that I'm fond of the Connecticut Huskies WBB. Even if it is just a "wee" bit.

I guess you can tell I'm from Maryland, more specifically the western "mountain Maryland" region but currently residing in a northern suburb of Baltimore.

I was always told (#1 of your posting above) those that lived there had a left leg longer than the other---Every time I drive to Franklin or Greenbriar---I understand why that is said.

I under the Feds are going to take your mascots FAR Arm away. ???? A lot of the ND's Alum should be visiting your home area--Fiona Crystal is made there--.

Most of our "associates" here on the WBB BY forum root for, and are fans of, UConn WBB. Some are not, but you are welcome guests and therefore you can play also. So here is what you have to fess up to: Besides Geno's team (if applicable), whom specifically do you follow/watch/root for -- in order!

Okay, okay, I'll go first.

1) UConn WBB
1) N. Y. Mets
3) WNBA (not a team per se, but all of our former UConn women) (hate that Seattle is 3 times zones away)
4) Notre Dame ...football, that is (been following them since I was kid) (Rudy is one of my favorite movies)
5) NCAA women's softball (last 4/5 years, just the finals though. I'm addicted, it's women on the diamond at the highest level - even get Holly Rowe for some games)

Anyone else?

1. Women's Hoops- Irish
2. Baseball -Seattle Mariners
3. Football pro Seattle Seahawks
4. Football College -Miami Hurricanes and Washington Huskies ( The Real Huskies )
5. Pro Basketball- OKC Thunder Former Seattle Sonics
6. College Basketball Men's - Big Blue Nation ( Kentucky) and Notre Dame
7. Softball - N.D-. and Washington Huskies
8. Volleyball N.D. - and Washington Huskies
9. College Baseball -N.D. and Miami Hurricanes.
10. WNBA -Seattle Storm
11. NASCAR- Ryan Newman ( Went to same high school )

Edy's brand of ice cream has a partial milk base, and I eat a lot of it without gaining weight like other desserts cause. It tastes
no different from regular brands. I especially enjoy 2 off beat flavors, French silk and Espresso.
