I'm not sure I understand changing teams either. I didn't switch when the Titans came to town. Of course I'm also a Vanderbilt student and most of the Titans fans seemed to be the same people as the obnoxious UT fans. Add in that they had blacked out games because they couldn't fill Vanderbilt's stadium (~40k) in their first year in Nashville along with the fact that at certain games it seemed like opposing teams had more fans there (Steelers). Then the fact that they go to the super bowl the next year in a new stadium with a new logo kind of made me resent them AND their fans. For me to have much respect for them, they're going to have to have 3+ non-playoff seasons in a row and still be selling out the stadium. Probably only an SEC fan could understand my great joy at watching Spurrier beat Tennessee's pro team live in Nashville.
