I follow other sports and over my lifetime:
The Pistons have won - 3 championships.
The Penguins have won - 5 Stanley Cups.
The Dodgers have won - 2 World Series.
UCLA Bruins basketball has won 1 Championship.
Miami Hurricanes have won 5 Championships.
Plus, I have a lot of stuff going on in my life. I seriously doubt that IF the Bengals win the Super Bowl that it will be the best day of my life. Just because a team was mismanaged for far so long that they finally overcome themselves to win...doesn't make it any sweeter.
The Bengals are the only team i really care about.
I cannot root for teams that are highly favored. I liked the Pistons when they had Billups, Rasheed Wallace, Prince, Ben etc.
But have given up on the NBA, always been a Portland Trailblazer fan since Drexler and the good old days.
Went to a Jazz playoff game and liked them when they had Derron Williams. The NBA has went to shit though IMHO.
Wanted to be a pro Basketball player when i was a kid too, loved the game and was pretty damn good at it, sucks.
Can never root for a Pittsburgh team, ever, especially one that wears the piss yellow and black.
Or an LA or New York team. I like the Flyers i guess in NHL, Reds or Rangers in the MLB, Michigan Wolverines in college.
Never liked Ohio State to be honest lol
