I'm a Michigan kid, so I've been a Tom Brady fan since his Wolverines days. My NFL team has been the Raiders since the early 70s, so watching him kick my team's ass over the years was always bittersweet. He's a minority owner of my team now, so those days are over.

It was nice to see the Patriots honor him yesterday. It was definitely well-

I stopped caring about pro sports. But…you’re old enough to have been a fan of something since the 70’s?

PS my husband is a born and raised buckeye soooo I am by default, in a Thee OSU house.

My Casey is from Cincy and his college team is Ohio State. There are a lot of Ohio transplants in Minnesota.

I would probably be living in Minnesota if it wasn't for the winters. I love the Twin Cities!

U.P. Michigan can't be any better???
Winters are brutal... and unfortunately the Twin Cities aren't as wholesome as it used to be.

If you haven't, it's hilarious. Dated, but still hilarious.

I'm not a football fan, but Casey is so college and NFL is on all the time. He's from Cincinnati so a Bengals fan, even though they crap out every year (just like the Vikings).

My husband used to watch football, but he quit and started watching soccer. I started liking soccer when my kids played when they were young, but I really only like the women's teams.

I played soccer when I was younger too. Love that sport! When I lived in Green Bay, I was a board member of the local league. I ran their website, put their tournaments together, coached. I miss it!

I was a jets fan many years ago. You know it’s hard being a NY fan of any sport. Now I mainly watch hockey. Let’s go rangers ! Lol

[iamkipalan]

I like hockey too. I've just never been fully vested in any teams/seasons other than Raiders football though. I'll watch the championships of all, but the seasons? Nope.
