I'm a Colts fan here. I've been one since the early '80s (1984?) when they moved here. Many, many bad seasons leading up to their current success. It makes it more worthwhile IMO. I'm hoping they repeat & I think they've got a decent shot. Those Pats have made some nice moves though... It'll be fun to see.
I'm also big into Fantasy Football. My family & friends have been in this super competitive league for the last 7? years. It's always great fun & the smack talk is non-stop. I've got the 4th pick in the first round this year. If Larry Johnson or Stephen Jackson don't fall to me there, then I'll probably take a bit of a stretch & draft J. Addai. It's a little more fun to have a guy on your squad that's also on your favorite team. Since Rhodes is gone I think Addai will have a monster year.
So, who do you guys root for?

I hate to admit it...I really do. But, Im a lifelong Redskins fan.
I guess because it was the closest team to me growing up and they were always on tv. And I guess because my dad loved them when I was a kid and we used to spend every Sunday together watching the games on tv. Those were great times.
Its been a long time since they have been anything. The glory years long gone. Im not too sure Gibbs is going to get the job done this time like he did before. But I do think they will be a little bit better this year than last. Last year, they sucked bigtime. And the defense all but disappeared after being a strength in 2005. I expect this year they'll win a couple more games and possibly be in the running for a wildcard but probably will fall short. Im predicting 7-9 to 9-7 range.

Miami Dolphins fan here since '72. Here's a pencil and airbrush piece I did about 15 years ago, taken from an old Sports Illustrated cover...I met Csonka & Griese afterwords and got them both to sign it....  Lately though it has been hard to stay a fan.. After the Shula Era we haven't been able to get anything going. ......I hated Jimmy Johnson,didn't like Dave Wanstandt,I was excited when Ricky Williams came in,then,we all know what happend...then I was excited with Saban coaching,then he ditches us.....who knows what the future holds. |

Time out for a second...
I love your pencil work Joey. Wish I had a gallery of your drawings here.
In my opinion, you were gifted with a set of pencils.
And about the Dolphins....no one knows worse than me...You aint a fan unless...
You stick with your team.
P.S. My oldest son loves the Dolphins.

Yeah, my loyalty has yet to pay off seeing as to I wasn't alive in 1969
