It's interesting the # that are positively oriented, vs the ones that are negatively oriented. And the random ones? I think those are the best--because there's definitely some reasoning behind them.

There's a comic who talks about the time that his math class was separated into two teams, and he was on "Team 2." The first team had a cool name like "Fire Eagles" or something, and he was on "Team 2," which they got as a name because the teacher said "What shall we call you, Team 2?" and they said "Yeah, go with that."<br /><br />I thought by the rules of caring about sports teams that if a team ever left your area you were to never ever care about them again. Where you live/are born is supposed to determine your team-rooting interest, almost irrevocably, the ONE exception being a team that moves away, which you are then required to hate forever after. Perhaps the Raiders are an exception because they moved there, then back? Or because LA doesn't really care about sports, at all? <br /><br />All I know is I live in Wisconsin and people think it's sacrilegious that I don't like the Packers, which isn't ENTIRELY true. I like Clay Matthews and the Coach, but can't stand Aaron Rodgers and hence I root against the team while The Anointed One is on it. Plus Packer fans are the absolute worst people in the world. I hope EVERY Packer game ends in another Worst Call Ever, if only because the sheer number of cheese-and-anger-induced heart attacks will thin out their numbers a bit.<br /><br />WOW, this got dark.
