Favoring teams in international competition (e.g. olympics/world cup) make sense because there's actrually nationalism involved. (not that it's a good thing, but it is human psychology).

WTF are you talking about? Im from the bay area so I like bay area teams. I like raiders and A's. How is that any different than whet you were saying at the bottom? I like the teams that represent my area of the country. The fact that you dont understand that scares me.

Fav team: Dallas Cowboys. Lived across the street from the stadium, lived in the same complex as E. Smith for a while. Man I miss the glory days.

SB pick: Since this probably won't be the year the 'Boys pick up Super Bowl Ring #6, I'd have to say... anyone but the Pats, let's say Steelers (Big Ben has something to prove).

Go Pack!

Hopefully they can at least go > .500 with that ugly defense they are fielding.

When I go, I want my ashes sprinkled over wherever the Vikings are calling home.

Chiefs. Used to be a Raider fan, but I really appreciated how KC let Montana and Marcus Allen give their last horays when SF and LA kicked them to the curb. They let Legends go out like Legends, not scrubs.

Also, in Super Techmo I was unbeatable using the Chiefs. Half back pass to Rob Thomas was always good for a TD.
