Every year I promise myself I'm going to go all in and follow the Reds with the same awful obsession I have with UK, I just never can make it past like, June 1. Maybe I'll stick with it this year.

I'll be a big fan of whichever NBA team lands Devin Booker.

If I didn't hate everything about the nfl (other than the actual players and games) I'd probably be a bengals fan, although I find myself rooting for Randall Cobb more than anything.

Nba- lakers. Father was a lakers fan. Grew up watching Reilly and show time win ships.

Baseball- dodgers. I grew up in el paso tx. We had a dodgers aa farm team

Nhl- blackhawks. While living in chicago from 2009-2012 I jumped ob the bandwagon and got into hockey a bit.

NCAA- Kentucky, of course.

NFL- Pull for the Bengals but the Patriots are my backup team, as long as Brady and Belichick are there.

NBA-Don't really watch much NBA ball, but I used to follow the Celtics some when Havlichek and Russell were there in the old days and I liked to watch Bird, although my brother said he was over rated. LOL...

MLB- I'd like to see the Reds win something, but I never watch MLB.

Hockey-


Soccer-


NASCAR- 18. Yeah, I know he's an a$$hole.

MLB - Brewers and Red Sox, there were no local teams growing up in SouthCentral KY back in the 70's, and I became a fan of those 2 because of Robin Yount and Jim Rice

NFL - Steelers, again no local team and all I knew as a 6-7 year old was the Steelers weren't the Cowboys

NHL - Hurricanes, local team 10 min from my house

College sports - other than obviously UK, I try to also pull for WKU (undergrad degree)

College: UK: also I like Georgia, Ohio St, and Zona when they are not playing Kentucky
NBA: Any team that has a UK player on it.
MLB: St Louis
NFL: Packers and Titans when they don't play GB.


I detest UL, Duke, UConn, Vandy, Arkansas, Tennessee, Celtics, and Georgetown. My day is always better when these teams lose.

Just the nfl. The way the league has brainwashed most of America into picking THEIR TEAM!! and thinking you have to wear some xxl jersey to the local Buffalo Wild Wings and cheer on your fantasy team! It's just really sterile and corporate feeling. I love college football

1. Ky Football

1a. MLB: Reds Listen to or watch almost every game

2. College Football all teams...no matter who is playing, when they are playing, etc....especially love all the bowl games.

3. NFL: Bungles if they are decent

4. ky bball but only if they have a really good shot (final four) at winning the nc.

Wouldn't attend an nba game if they gave me tickets on the bench, a hotel room, free flight, free meals

No hockey

No women's sports

NCAA - Kentucky

MLB - Cincinnati Reds

NBA - No real team. Grew up a Bulls fan with Jordan during their run. Right now the only team I will watch is the Warriors - that is a fun team to watch.

NFL - Atlanta Falcons. Was a big Deion Sanders fan and then just stayed with them once he left.

NASCAR - Matt Kenseth

Soccer - Team USA. Will probably hit up some Louisville City FC games this summer.

All UK sports

NFL: Bears
MLB: Cubs
NBA: Bulls
NHL: Blackhawks
Premier League: Everton (this is my favorite club in my favorite sport, but my love for UK is still above it)
MLS: Still working on it. The Fire didn't exist until years after I'd left Illinois, so it's been difficult to pick one.
The US National Soccer Team

I don't follow NASCAR closely enough to have a favorite driver.

MLB - BRAVES

Seeing all the Reds fans I now understand why so many were arguing with me a couple years ago when I said Chipper is a sure-fire 1st ballot HOF'er.
