I was born in Texas in 1985, and I've lived here every year but one. But for some reason, in 1990 I decided the San Francisco Giants were my favorite baseball team. I've now been to California once, to cover the most recent Holiday Bowl, and I've still never been close to San Francisco. Doesn't matter though, my one pro sports loyalty is still to the Giants. P.S. Will Clark is my hero. Geographically based loyalty is overrated.

I don't get that. I don't feel like i should be obligated to like/follow a team just because that's where Im from/was born/grew up.Grew up in DC. First NBA game i went to was at the age of 7 at the Garden - Lakers-Knicks. Went to another one the following year in LA. Instantly, those were the two teams i began to like, and I lived through them via newspaper box scores.
