Rank your Top5 sports team you root for

A friend asked me this over the weekend and I thought it would be easy... not so much:

 

1. Panthers
----------------
2a. Hornets
2b. Tarheel basketball
----------------
4. Baltimore Orioles
5. Tarheel football

 

My 1st was a no brainer obviously but 2nd fav team was actually really tough. I had to envision a huge loss and a huge win and my reactions to both to make a decision. In the end, I would be far more upset at the Heels losing a big game in the tourney but not so devastated if the Hornets lost a big series in the playoffs.. [so edge to the Heels, right?] But at the same time if the Hornets won a big matchup in the playoffs, simply to advance to the 2nd round or Conference Finals- I would be way happier than if the Heels got to the Final Four.

I think it has a lot to do with expectations - I expect the Heels to always be good and expect the Hornets always to collapse, but it was still fun to go back and forth with my friend [NC State fan] on who he thought his Top5 were.

1: Panthers

No need for explanation really. Obvious choice.

2: Hornets

Again. Lived here all my life so far. No brainer

3: Tarheels FB/BB

Tarheels fan all my life. Will stick true even though we have cheated

4: Tottenham Soccer? Football? Whatever you want to call it.

Started watching the BPL in 2010. Was hooked onto this team as well as my oldest brother. Who still cheers for the London team to this day. By far my favorite team in Soccer

5: UConn BB

I watched Uconn's Big East run in 2010. Was stuck on immediately. Have been a big fan ever since. I was so happy when the Hornets picked Kemba. Looks like they have made the correct decision.

Panthers are the only sports team I root for at any level in any sport and the NFL is the only sport/sports league I actively follow at all, though I do passively follow Royals baseball as well... definitely got caught up in the World Series runs the past 2 years.

    • Lol I watch Locked On Hornets every now and then. Those guys don't know basketball. They were screaming take Scoot over Miller and we see how that turned out.     I just watch them for the laughs at this point.
    • Remember folks anointing Bryce after the Texans game last year?  I do. Whew boy, that aged about as well as milk in the Sahara.   Undoubtedly he's playing better, but I have yet to see the level of play to say I want him as our franchise QB going forward for the next 10 years.
    • Just because we made a bad trade and selected the wrong QB does not mean we should double triple and quadruple down on a QB who is currently for this season 35th in passing yards 36th in touchdowns 39th in yards per attempt 40th in yards per game 39th in completion % and 42nd in passer rating. In this league you need not only a really good QB but it pays dividends to have a good backup plan in place. Why would you or anyone else be against us having a real legitimate insurance policy this go around instead of a washed up Andy Dalton and an afterthought like Jack Plummer? It sounds to me like some of you are only invested in catering to one player because you want to salvage the trade instead of doing what is best for the whole team long term. Bryce Young does not carry that level of sway. That's all there is to it.
