Hey, I'll chime in for a fun thread

MLB: don't really like baseball...only games I've been to are Tigers and to a few Brewers games so if i cheer it's for them....even though I live in Philly (shhh)

NFL: Packers (my mom is from WI) and cheboygan is almost WI (hehehe)

NHL: Red Wings

NBA: Pistons

NCAA:
Basketball: Michigan, MSU, Marquette
Football: Michigan (MSU when they are playing OSU or Penn State)
Hockey: Michigan, WMU (alma mater)

I really only like watching NCAA sports on tv.....unless it is an important game for professional sports

[Wingnatic]

MLB: Tigers

NFL: Lions

NBA: none

NCAA: Meechigan !

Long time broadcaster/P.A. announcer Budd Lynch celebrates 60 years with the Red Wings tonight .

Ya know, Yaz, when we lived in AZ briefly earlier this year, my dh, who normally is a baseball nut, just could not get into the D-backs at all. I couldn't even get him to go to a home game. I guess it didn't help that they were pretty bad this year, but mostly, he just couldn't get into rooting for a recently formed (relatively speaking) expansion team. After being a lifelong Tigers fan, he just didn't want to even try to be a D-backs fan. None of us are into the NFL in a big way, so the whole Cardinals thing was kind of off of our radar, even though we lived in north Glendale and were only a hop, skip and a jump from the stadium.

I guess I'm a true HOMER.

MLB- Tigers have and always will be the only team I can follow.

NBA- Don't care much for B-ball but hope the Pistons do well.

NFL- Been a Steelers fan since I was a kid, but do pull for the Lions to turn it around. Can't say I'm a huge Lions fan because they are rarely on the tube anymore. LOL

NHL- Sorry but Wings fan since I was a very young. My buddy and me would fight over who was going to be Dale Mccourt playing hockey in his back yard.

NCAA- Grew up in a Michigan house. Remember watching games with my dad. He was a big Michigan fan unless they were playing Notre Dame. The he just hoped for a good game but secretly pulled for the Irish.

MLB: TIGERS! (Second-favorite team is whoever is playing the Yankees.)

NBA: I do not like the NBA's style of basketball, but in theory I root for the Pistons.

NHL: Not much of a hockey fan, but in theory I root for the Red Wings.

NFL: LIONS!

NCAA: Michigan State. Also root for all the other Michigan schools. In hoops, I also like Duke. In football, I find myself pulling for South Carolina recently.

Despite living in (near) South Bend, I hate the Irish with a passion. I couldn't stand them when I moved here, and now I hate them as much as I hate Ohio State. My favorite NCAA teams: Michigan, and whoever's playing Notre Dame.

NFL: Lions - by default.,
NHL: RED WINGS!!!, 2nd choice; Montreal Canadians
NBA: Pistons, but not really a big basketball fan.
NCAA: U of M, but MSU is growing on me. Just wish at least one of them was good at football.
Others: Shock. R.I.P; EMU - They totally suck but it's my alma mater.

Go Hurons!

You can get an idea of how old I am from that statement.

I graduated from Eastern too.....

My wife has lived in The Valley for 20 years.....so, she's been following them for their entire existence. I have "sorta" become a Diamondbacks fan by default.....i.e., cuz that's what's on TV.

The Tigers were in town last year for a weekend series; that was great. Our seats were right behind home plate and we had a wonderful time. Pretty cool ballpark.

Not very old. If I remember right they only changed to the Eagles in 91 or 92.

Yes, Chase Field is gorgeous! I went to a game with my son when his favorite player, Albert Pujols, was in town with the Cardinals. What a cool venue! When they opened the roof right before the (evening)game began, it was amazing!

Phoenix has some wonderful sports venues, don't they?
