Anyone else have sports rivalries going on at home? The only sport we really get into is NFL football. I am Cowboys. & Peyton Manning. & Anybody playing the Steelers or the Redskins DH is Vikings. & anybody playing Redskins. & anybody playing Green Bay. & anybody playing Steelers. DD is Ravens. & anybody playing Redskins. & anybody playing Steelers. DS is Steelers. & anybody playing Ravens. The kids are still young enough that the fighting does not get too bad, but it definitely has its moments.  |

No, we don't walk away. But when we're holding on to something precious, we run.

Not really. The kids (2 and 3.5) are getting resigned to Sundays being football days on the living room tv. And we're trying to indoctrinate them into being Packer fans... But I'm sorry you have to live with a Vikings fan...  There are a bunch of other teams I cheer for - anyone playing Chicago, Dallas, Denver and New England for sure. I used to root for the underdog Lions but now that they're decent to good and challenging my Packers I have to rethink that... |

I am a Raiders fan. No one would be allowed to live under my roof if they didn't like the Raiders  Could be why I live alone  |

Skol Vikings!! Obviously I am a Vikings fan (feel free to pity me now) and Mr. Sroo is a Bears fan. Why yes, we live in the middle of Packer land  Oh Sroo. I'm sorry you lave to live with a Bears fan... And DH and I can take you both in to be reprogrammed to cheer for a. the Packers or b. any team that's not in the NFC North...  |

I went to WVU, my stepbrother went to Marshall. Our parents divorced when I was in my junior year. No longer needed that house divided license plate.
I'm for the Cowboys and whoever is playing the Steelers in the NFL.

hmm.....most of my family is wired correctly, but there is one rivalry that has resulted in pillow fights - I am a Bruins fan. my father roots for anyone and everyone BUT the B's. I still love him, notwithstanding his (lack of) taste in hockey teams. |

hubby - Dallas Cowboy fan (ashamed of Romo)
me - bitter Oiler fan reluctant Houston Texan fan
kiddo - Bengals fan (where did I go wrong?)
Nascar
hubby - Kevin Harvick
me - Dale Jr
kiddo - Carl Edwards (again, where did I go wrong?)
they watch baseball & some basketball.... I'm just not into those
