Of these teams I'd take the 49ers. It's a matter of nostalgia, they were dominant in the 80s when I was a kid. I guess because of that the NFL just feels right to me when the 49ers are doing well, it just feels like the world makes sense.

Where's the Browns at??

Slingin Sammy 33 · 01-16-2009, 11:45 PM

I'd go Raiders, but the caveat is Al Davis can't be the owner. If not, I'll go with the Chiefs

I'll never change my allegiance. I'm Burgundy and Gold for Life! However, in the spirit of this thread, if I ever lost my mind and stopped cheering for the Skins it would be because I stopped watching football altogether. Seriously what would be the point in going on as a football fan if I didn't cheer for the Skins? I cannot and will not offer an answer because that suggests it's a realistic thought for me.

Now I'm going to weep softly in the corner, with beer in hand, for each of you who actually answered this question.

HAIL TO THE REDSKINS AND TO HELL WITH THE OTHER 31!!

I get that it's the off season and that we have to jump start discussions but lately I'm disturbed by the line of questions around here. Whose jersey would you wear, who would you root for? What's next? If your penis had to be cutoff how would you dispose of it? If you had to be molested as a child who would prefer to be molested by?

I smoke Burgundy and Gold and I go on spiritual quests with Redskins.

I'd have to go w/ KC Cheifs. Their fan base is as strong as any in the NFL so I always respected that.

If I would never consider being a bandwagon chaser for elite teams, why would I ever consider a shit team? Of the choices, SF would be most attractive with their championship legacy, but I will die a Skins fan even if the Danny never delivers a Super Bowl.

Paintrain · 01-17-2009, 09:55 AM

It would be tough, but I'd probably go with KC. I hate every other AFC West team already anyways so it would be a natural transition.

KLHJ2 · 01-17-2009, 10:47 AM

I went with the Rams because they have the most realistic shot at a turnaround IMO.

My step father used to get all riled up and say that the NFL was fixed, but it seemed to only be fixed when his team was losing.

Makes me wonder if my Dad was your stepfather.

He's that way with college sports too.

I love people who say that stuff. Now if a story brook that one or two Ref's where getting paid on the side to throw a game that I might believe, but to think that they have 100's of people agreeing to throw games and no one steps forward to break the story is just crazy. The money a person would get for spilling the beans would be unreal and news sources would just throw them the bank to bring down the largest sport in the US.

So wonderful to see that I've inspired such a lively discussion. Obviously right now my second favorite team is the Ravens though of the options listed I would pick the Chiefs. Cool uniforms, great tradition, indian name, usually competitive.
