Taking off on FB's post about local teams. It has something to do with rivalries (maybe more intense in college than pros) but not always.

There are a lot of teams I don't like, but I will always root against:

Michigan (even if it meant *gasp* pulling for ND a few weeks ago)

and

Texas A&M

Atlanta Braves.

I've gotten over my disgust with the Pirates of the early 90's when they were good and beating the Mets.

Philly, Dallas, and Chicago. It was tough in this week's PSU game because I am a lifetime PSU fan but I'm planning on going to UW for my PhD so I've learned to love the Badgers too. Sad

Oh, and Michigan State.....but only when they play PSU, it's an old rivalry between my former boss and I. All in fun, of course, I really have nothing against them. Wink

Now see, being a Steelers fan I don't have any animosity toward The Browns and I always look forward to the Turnpike Series.

Your anti-Modell vibe, well, totally understandable!!
