But how? You just chose? Lol. I don’t understand.

Atlanta Falcons
Atlanta Braves
Atlanta United
Atlanta Hawks
Tennessee Vols

I don’t see how people can like teams from cities and places all over the country and have an affiliation ha

I picked all of my teams as an 8 year old in East TN. Mainly because they were the champs that year and I followed their best players. Stuck with them ever since:

Pittsburgh Pirates (Clemente and Stargell)
Dallas Cowboys (Staubach and Hill)
Los Angles Lakers ( Wilt C and West)
Boston Bruins (Hull and Espisito)

All were the 1971 World Champs, so yes, I was a band wagon jumper. 😁These were the days you relied on the daily newspaper and The Sporting News for your "internet".

i didn’t call all Braves fans Bandwagon fans…. There were just a lot around me when i was younger. i couldn’t stand the Braves bc they were from Georgia. I couldn’t like them bc i spent the entire fall hating the Georgia Bulldogs… i couldn’t cheer for their Pro Teams.

I literally NEVER thought of the Braves as "Georgias" team...me and literally everybody else I know thinks of them as the Souths team...especially back in the day.

And I never hated UGA like I do Bama and Florida...until di**face Kirby Smart took over.

One is a $10K expense, 2 week long, once-in-a-lifetime trip with amazing food and two months prep reading The Odyssey

The other is $50 in gas, explaining to your pastor why you missed church, and found listed in an "oddest roadside attractions near Nashville" Google search. But with a Cracker Barrel within eye shot

Coin flip decision or me

(Full disclosure: I have visited both. Sorry padre about sunday school)

Not wrong. We spent as much on our honeymoon as our wedding.

And worth every damn penny. Greece is the shiz

Mostly what you grew up on. My dad simply said when it comes to pro sports - find a team you respect and can enjoy, but UT js your only love...just no damn teams the Bammers, Dawgs, or Gators also root for.

Wisdom for all.

Too much logic for the traitors that want to ignore the reality of their treasonous ways 🤣

Are you kidding me????? I haven’t laughed so hard watching that in awhile. I may go watch again and then again Saturday morning. It takes the edge off leading up to the game.

It took you two months to read the Odyssey?

One of my faves. Sitting on my shelf as we speak.
