I went to Troy University and the University of Alabama, and I'm now a booster for CSU-Pueblo. First and foremost, I consider myself a Bama fan.

To me, attending a school being an intrinsic necessity for fandom is fascist and classist as hell. I'm ashamed it even comes up in relation to CFB. Fact is, any big time program makes more off merchandize and ticket sales to fans who didn't attend than ones that did. So, while a certain segment wants to stick their nose in the air, they're still benefitting from the support of the less than blue-bloods they act like snobs about.

And if you disagree with me, I'll drop my balls in your mouth and you can gargle out your retort.

Roll Tide!

Below your avatar you can show the logos of your 3 favorite teams. Why show 3 different colleges? It's kinda lame. I fully expect it from Team SEC. My loyalty at this level is 100% for Ohio State and no other.

I have 3 kids that have gone to 3 different schools. I follow all of the teams. Especially when it comes to basketball, we are clearly a house divided, as you can see. :doh:

The daughter and SiL are UGA grads. I weary of them sending me sympathy cards after the Dawgs defeat the Vols in any sport. I hope they grow out of it before their own kids attend somewhere other than their alma mater.

Another good question is why do people root for Colleges that they have zero connection too?
Well - at least you didn't end that sentence with a preposition, but it wasn't for lack of trying.

I do, however, find it ironic that a person can question others affiliations to colleges by constructing a sentence posing that question that would seem to indicate having never passed a college-level English course.

You need an apostrophe here, it's plural possessive.
