1 Uconn men bb
2 Yankees (a very distant second)
3 NY Giants (almost not worth mentioning any more)
Uconn men is an around the year sport for me (BY etc.) Once a very rabid Yankee and NY Giant fan but ownership for those franchises has seemingly done the impossible by producing lackluster at best performances to disasters. That's OK. Uconn more than makes up for this
in ever increasing excellence and championship caliber performance.
I tried (really tried) to get back into the Giants this year but the last straw was the field goal kicker missing the ball and kicking the ground.

UConn football and basketball are far and away my main focus.
Pats and Bucs. I’m a lifelong Pats fan and love having Drake May—pumped to be back. When Brady went to Tampa Bay, I became a Bucs fan too. Then they got Baker Mayfield, who just happened to be my favorite player, so my Bucs fandom has continued. It also helps that my son and several of his friends grew up Bucs fans so we can watch together.
Whalers (that loss never leaves me)
Don’t really care about baseball anymore but get roped right back in when the Red Sox are in the playoffs.
Don’t care about any particular NBA team anymore. I just follow UConn alums. I enjoyed the Celtics when Ray was there. I was a Laker fan in the old days and I hated the C’s. Now I like watching old Celtics games and seeing Bird and Co out there. I also love when the Knicks are good.

Bills and UConn mbb are 1a and 1b. A CLEAR top 2. Bills are the only team I’m as/more passionate about and heartbroken about.
Atlanta Braves are close but probably solidly behind those 2. I root for FSU football as a 90s child, and my NBA team varies depending on who my favorite players are.
Larry Johnson/Zo days I was a Hornets kid. Iverson days I liked Philly. Always rooted for MJ’s Bulls. Then Ray Allen and Kemba days I was a Celtics fan. Today, I’m a Spurs fan.

The only other team that comes close to my UConn mbb fandom is Arsenal in the Premier League. Keeping my fingers crossed that I'm celebrating two titles next year 🤞
besides them I follow the Knicks, and a local school to me, Marist. They haven't really been good at all since I was a kid, tho. Shout out the legend Jared Jordan

I’m really only passionate about UConn in all sports especially BB, football, baseball and ice hockey.
I’m also very passionate about the Red Sox,
Since I now live in Florida, I follow Florida Panthers, Tampa Bay Bucs and Jags but not life or death like UConn and Sawx. I started following Bucs more closely when Brady joined and love watching Baker play.
Celtics are only followed during post season.
I used to be Patriot fan until Kraft used Hartford to get their new stadium. Karmanos broke my heart as well with the Whalers.

UConn men’s hoops first and foremost. UConn football. UConn women’s hoops for the big games. Pro sports it’s Yankees and LA Chargers. Celtics in post season. I get hooked into PGA on weekends whenever a tournament comes down to the final day too.
