    Default Who does your sports fandom lie with?

    Just make a nifty little list.

    NFL - Dallas Cowboys
    NCAA(all sports) - Florida Gators
    MLB - New York Yankees
    NHL - New Jersey Devils
    NBA - Dallas Mavericks
    MLS - FC Dallas
    Premier League/lower leagues - Manchester United, Rochdale
    NASCAR - Jeff Gordon
    Golf - Tiger Woods
    Tennis - Andy Roddick/Maria Sharapova
    Poker - Daniel Negreanu

    If I think of more sports I haven't posted a team for, I'll post them.

    So, what are your teams? Why do you like them?

    EPL/FL: Pretty much a neutral, but I look for Swindon's result down in league 1.
    Guinness Prem (rugby union): Gloucester and England
    Cricket: Somerset and England
    MLB: St Louis Cardinals

    they're the team sports I follow and watch. Individual sports...

    Snooker: Everyone likes Ronnie's result, but I used to like Paul Hunter a lot (RIP)
    F1: Kubica and Raikkonen

    I really have no problem with Jeff Gordon. I don't really like him, but at the same time I don't understand why so many people hate him so much.

    Here's a list I found:

    Why do I hate Jeff Gordon ?

    Lets see the list is soo big........can I get 10 + items listed ?

    1) First off... I'm a Dale Jr. Fan.... have been & will always be..he's my BABY!

    2) Jeff is not NASCAR ROYALTY!

    3) Jeff is ugly and un-attractive

    4) Jeff can't talk and is Un-polite..

    5) Jeff doesn't seem to represent NASCAR the way he should meaning..when he wins he complains and when he loses he complains.. Just take a win for what it is and thank your fans and crew. Geesh how hard is that ?

    6) Jeff is the annoying equivalent of Tom Cruise. People thought Tom was gay even if he played "Cole Trickle" in the Movie Days of Thunder.. and then married Katie Holmes and had a kid. Jeff married again and will have an Ugly kid too.

    7) Jeff's Dupont car sux. The colors of that car are blinding and GAY! What are you an activist for gay pride parades ?

    8) Jeff is just not Dale Jr. You don't see a sea of Dupont multicolored attire at NASCAR races...instead you see a sea of Budweiser and #8 Red.

    9) I don't want to see him win anything... he's not worth it ?
    Between Gordon & Stewart I chose Stewart..
    Between Gordon & Jr I chose JR. Anyone but Gordon, really.

    10) I hate Jeff for his "*********". He thinks he's all that.. News flash. U're NOT all that..go ahead and keep convincing yourself though..you go right ahead..

    11) He may have won a few races this year but I think those were LUCKY wins..not earned wins..

    12) Last but not least...He's never earned the title of MOST POPULAR /MOST WELL KNOWN DRIVER..that Title has always been Dale Jr's
    This was written about a year ago...before Jr. became Gordon's teammate...by the way.

    Pretty much most people were Dale Earnhardt Sr./Jr. fans. They're pissed because Gordon's won four championships and over 80 races...blah blah blah. It's jealousy. They're pissed that Gordon is surpassing Earnhardt.

    They seem to skim over the fact that their hero Dale Earnhardt Sr. said that Jeff Gordon was going to be the next big thing. They say he bitches all the time. False. He only bitches when someone puts him in the wall or something...which he has a right to do. That person said that he bitches when he wins...show me that. I haven't seen it.

    All in all, I think it's because of what Jeff Foxworthy says. He says NASCAR fans hate Jeff Gordon because he uses annunciation. He knows the English language.
    I hear the voices inside my head. They counsel me. They understand. They talk to me.

    I played baseball in high school, and still can't stand to watch it. It's the most boring sport ever unless you're partaking.

    I think my love of baseball may stem from my hate of the Yankees.

    Jesus Christ Tidus you are biggest fucking fairweather fan in the world.

    NFL - Atlanta Falcons, to a lesser extent the Patriots
    NCAA(all sports) - Georgia
    MLB - Atlanta Braves, to a lesser extent the Red Sox
    NHL - Atlanta Thrashers, to a lesser extent the Hartford Whalers
    NBA - Atlanta Hawks
    MLS - This is not a sport
    Premier League/lower leagues - This is not a sport
    NASCAR - NASCAR died with Dale Earnhardt, but I liked Alan Kulwicki and Davey Allison before their untimely deaths.
    Golf - John Daly, Tiger Woods, Anthony Kim, anyone who's beating fat fag Phil or that Gaytor faggot Chris DiMarco

    The reason people don't like Jeff Gordon is because he has always been a prettyboy faggot in a sport where seniority earned you the right to have an opinion. Everyone knows Gordon is a good driver, but he was such a whiny bitch in his mustache days. It's the same reason a lot of people disliked Rusty Wallace when he first started (as he got older, he got better about it) and DW when he was finishing his career. Gordon has always been one of the drivers who was quick to wreck if it got him ahead and quicker to whine if it happened to him. Compare him to Earnhardt who was even more reckless when he was younger... except he never bitched when someone repaid the favor.

    Tony Stewart was much the same way, but his ongoing feud with NASCAR has endeared him to the fans because NASCAR has shifted from a family to a business; all of these drivers are prettyboy faggots who have too much money and endorsements dictating their every move. Carl Edwards backflip? Fuck you. Give me a polish victory lap.

    I used to support them...but that died when Alan Shearer retired.

    I've always been a Man U fan though.
