    I'm from California, and I was a Sox fan for a while , but maybe it was more because I was a Jack McDowell fan.

    I REALLY became a fan though, when they gave up a bunch of players to my Giants.

    If you had read my whole post, you would see that I'm really a Giants fan. What's wrong with following a team for a while if you like their players? I even have a White Sox shirt I used to wear for a while. It is possible to like more teams than one. My second favorite team is Anaheim, mostly because I lived down there for a while, but also because I was pulling for them in the '86 playoffs when they lost to Buckner's Red Sox. I also became a Marlins fan when they beat the Dodgers in their first game ever, and I was pulling for them when they won the World Series. I don't like them now because of what the owner did to them.

    You don't need a huge reason to start liking a team, but when that reason doesn't exist any more, what do you do then?

    Just as you will be laid to rest in your Cubbie Blue, I sport the Orange and Black at every Giants game I go to, and I like to use my Giants credit card when I go to Dodger stadium just to piss off the ticket people. I was born a Giants fan, and as long as I'm alive, I'll be a Giants fan. That doesn't mean though, that I can't like other teams along the way. To each his own I guess.

                    I'm sorry that you set such strict rules for yourself, not allowing yourself to cheer for anyone other than your team is your choice. It must be hard for you to watch any game not involving your teams, cause you'll want both teams to lose.

                    There are times though, when my favorite team is playing my 2nd favorite team, which happened this last World Series. When that happens, it's "Giants all the way."

                    My team is almost as cursed as yours though, not having won a Series since 1954, and not since they moved to SF. But I'll stick by them through thick and thin, and there are many times I suffered though (early '80's for example, when I was in high school... the only time they lost 100 games).

                    But you can keep deluding yourself into thinking that your type of fan is the best type, while I can just keep enjoying the great game of baseball.

                            I'm a sox fan because everybody in Chicago is a damn Cubs fan, plus most of the people I know live on the South Side and I work on the South Side. Today was the perfect day, Sox win, Cubs lose.
