Rank your Top5 sports team you root for

[PantherJD]

Until about 6-7 years ago, I would have said:

1a. UNC basketball

1b. UNC football

3. Panthers

4. Hornets (Bobcats)

5. Braves

The first two would have been far above the rest.  Now, as I get further away from my college years and having had many seasons of living back in the Charlotte area and attending Panthers games, I would say:

1a. Panthers

1b. UNC basketball

1c. UNC football

4. Hornets

The top 3 are well above the fourth on the list, and it's not even worth it to add a fifth team anymore because it wouldn't be in the same stratosphere.

Panthers

Maryland Terrapins

Hornets

Hurricanes

Braves

[Kentucky Panther]

1. Kentucky Basketball

2. Carolina Panthers

3. Kentucky football

4. Lakers (big Kobe fan)

5. Detroit Pistons

 

Bottom two are only listed because I had to put five.  I'm not sure how much I'll love the Lakers once Kobe is gone and the Pistons have been garbage for the better part of the last 10 years.  Love me some NBA but I just can't get into it like I can college sports or Panthers football.

2. San Francisco Giants

so you chose which sport each school is best at and rolled with it haha. not hating, just never understood it. 

Wait what? How? 

 

Dodgers sucked when I was there, just went to a lot of games for free. And the same with SC, except they didn't stink. 

 

I'm born and raised in NC. I don't know if you from NC not but here it's either Unc or Duke. That's it. Nobody else matters, unless you old or went there.

The rooting for schools that you never attended or rooting for a separate school in football and basketball only happens in North Carolina from what I have learned. I have never seen it anywhere else I have been or from people I speak to.

i know a few people who grew up in Ohio who grew up Ohio State fans and went to Penn State. They now hate Ohio state. One of my clients grew up a huge Sooners fan and went to OK State. He doesn't follow Sooners football at all. It is one thing in sports I will never understand.

I'm just big on loyatly to one program. People talk a lot of poo to me on here because I root for Miami basketball and football. Miami basketball hasn't done poo in basketball but things have been looking up as of recent. Same goes for Miami football over the last decade. I still stand by them though rather than rooting for UCLA bball or USC football because I live in LA and because they're usually good.

Some people just can't handle rooting for both sports programs from a school because the majority of schools are only good at one or the other.

Well here college football really don't matter. It's panthers and Carolina or Duke. Everything else is 3rd tier.

Ummmm, you need to try driving through the trailer parks of the state of Alabama.

Recommendation: Don't exhibit any form of orange-and-blue while you do so.
