Red Sox - life
Patriots - life
Bruins - life
Celtics - life
BU Hockey - life
Every other team I hate. Passionately.
I despise all college teams and college sports other than BU hockey. There's a soccer team here in NE playing for the championship next weekend and I know nothing about them nor care to. Thankfully, no WBNA in town. Don't watch NASCAR or any racing. Big golf fan, although Payne Stewart was the last golfer I would've claimed to be a "favorite". Now I just enjoy them all, except Mickleson. That Asian chick who plays pool is pretty hot.
San Diego Padres - 36 years
Los Angeles Lakers - 30 years
USC Trojans (football) - 30 years
Colorado Avalanche - 10 years

My Auctions
Hockey - North Stars up until that silver tounged devil sold us up the river and moved to Dallas. I mean come on Dallas? Now I cheer for the Wild but its not the same. Bad nickname and uniforms make it tough. Probably the Maple Leafs
Baseball - Twins but they are starting to bug me with their lack of signings and how they're the cute little small market team that can't compete with anyone. Boo-Hoo!!!!!!!
NBA - ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
Mariners since the mid 90s
Always a fan of sports, I always rooted for the underdogs (rooted for the Bengals against the 49ers in the super bowl). Got to where I started to want a team of my own to root for, and everyone rooted for the local teams, 49ers/Raiders and Giants/A's....I went a different route, and picked the teams that were the worst (underdog lover in me) and chose them to root for. Figured hey, it's as valid as any other reason, and been a fan ever since.
Never really got into hoops or hockey, just didn't have the appeal to me the other 2 did.
Red Sox (by far, the team with which I most live and die with)
Celtics
Steelers (not the Pats, believe it or not, though I certainly like to see them do well - my favorite team from childhood was the Steelers and it has stuck with me through until now)
Hockey - who cares?
All three basically ever since I began to play and follow sports.
Cubs - 40 years (Im 46)
Bears - 40 years
Bulls - 40 years
Anyone who plays the StL Cardinals, Green Bay Packers and Notre Dame
White Sox - life
Bulls - from mid 80's (when I first discovered basketball and when Jordan arrived) to present. Except 1998-2003 in protest of Jabba the Hut, a.k.a. Jerry Krause.
Baseball = Red Sox
Football = Pats
Basketball = Celtics (in the old days that is. I don't give a rat's ass about the NBA seeing what it's become)
Soccer = The NE Revolution is good team, but I just can't get into soccer so I'm really indifferent whether they win or not.
Detroit Red Wings - 25 years
Detroit Lions 30+ years
Detroit Tigers 30+ years
Detroit Pistons 20 years
Stingray
Minneapolis Lakers
San Francisco 49'ers back to when RC Owens was catching the Ally Opp
Oregon Ducks back to when they were in the Pac-8
Does that give you a idea of how long ?
NFL - NE Patriots - Since 1994
College Football - Notre Dame Fighting Irish - Since 1994
None for basketball or baseball.
Chris
Texas Rangers= life
Dallas Stars= since they started
FC Burn= since they started
basketball= any team from Texas. Not much of a fan.
NCAA: Penn State Football - the best!
NFL: Philadelphia Eagles - a close 2nd
MLB: Philadelphia Phillies - a close 3rd
NBA: Philadelphia 76ers - distant 4th
NHL: Philadelphia Flyers - very distant 5th
Favorite teams to hate in order:
NFL: Dallas Cowboys - by far...nothing else even close!
MLB: Altanta Braves, Los Angeles Dodgers
NBA: Los Angeles Lakers
NHL: None
College Football: None

The only teams I hate are Notre Dame, Michigan, Yankees and Cardinals. I hated the Pistons in the 80's and 90's but now I like them but am hardly a fan.
This gave me an idea but didn't want to hijack the thread so go here!
My Auctions
Yankees=24 years (liked the Phillies in '80 for obvious, follow the winning team, kid's reasons)
Sixers=24 years (the team with Dr. J, Mo Cheeks, Billy Cunningham as the coach got me hooked)
PSU Football=24 years (right around the time leading up to the Sugar Bowl victory over Herschel Walker and Georgia)

2. Twins from '77 to now.
3. North Stars from '79-'93. I still haven't truly enjoyed the NHL since they left.
4. Vikes from '77 to around '87. Really I'm kind of a bandwagon fan with them, I like it when the win but seldom watch anymore.
5. The Wild and the Timberwolves really haven't held my interested other then during their respective playoff runs a couple years ago.
Patriots, 29 years
Red Sox, 19 years
Hartford Whalers, 1986-1997
UConn Huskies (Men and Women's BB), 19 Years
I love hockey, but just can't cheer for the Bruins or Rangers after being a Whalers fan. I'll get over it some day. My kids play hockey so at least it is fun to cheer for them!!
Detroit Tigers~~~25 years
Detroit Pistons~~~21 years
Detroit Red Wings~~10 years (part timer)
Michigan State~~~20 years
BOSOX-LIFE

<< <i>whereever SHAQ plays! >>
I also root for the Bolts; I wish the Padres would get ownership that was less stingy (hello, expensive new ballpark and you start cutting the payroll!?
Yes, I collect shiny modern crap
All your Shaq are belong to me
Washington Senators and Chicago Cubs
Chicago Bears
Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.
Redwings
Pistons
Michigan
and any unranked team playing against a Top 10 team with the exception of Michigan. (Not that I've had any problem with that this year!
<< <i>Hmm.... tough one. Packers for life. Is there any other team? >>
To answer your question, no. Not in Green Bay.
