    I have lived in NJ all my life and my teams are the Yankees, NY Rangers, Knicks, NY Giants, and Rutgers Football. Ironically, not too many people from NJ care about the NJ professional teams (Devils and Nets).

    Re: Are your sports teams from your home state?

    Born in VA, raised in MD - and grew up a Braves fan - And a disciple of Dale Murphy as a little leaguer.

    Moved to STL in '83 and fell in love with Whiteyball. Willie McGee, Tom Herr, Ozzie and Terry Pendleton made me a switch hitter...

    err.

    No, Those guys made me want to bat both left handed and right handed during baseball games.

    Born and raised: Atlanta (fellow adolescent and now responsible adult Murphy disciple.)

    Favorite team all time: America's Team II - the Braves

    I lived in Nashville when the Predators and Titans arrived, so they're my favorite hockey and football teams.

    Grew up in Ontario, Canada...

    - Flyers in the 70s (Bernie was God!) and into the 80s
    - Sixers in the 80s
    - Steelers since the early 80s

    Really don't watch much NBA or NHL anymore - just NFL.

    Re: Are your sports teams from your home state?

    Born and raised in the Alameda, CA (right next to Oakland) so my teams are:

    Oakland A's
    Oakland Raiders
    Golden State Warriors
    Cal Golden Bears

    Although I do have a weak spot in my heart for Tarheels basketball. They were the first team I remember watching as a young kid and have loved them ever since.

    Re: Are your sports teams from your home state?

    Thanks! I was just curious how many stuck with their home town state teams.

    I get grief for not liking NY teams. I grew up around Viking, Laker, and Bruin fans and followed them early in my life. Stuck with them until adulthood.

    Otherwise, I guess I would like: New York Yankees/Mets; New York Knicks; New York Giants/Jets; and New York Rangers.

    I will always love and follow my college hometown sports: Syracuse
