Team nickname: Used to be "Luv ya Blue" back in the day, no heritage these days other than failure with Young/Johnson and the letting go of Fisher.
years as a fan: 38
team rivalry: Used to be Pittsburgh Steelers or the Curtain, now the COLTS of Indy.
your personal grudge match: Dallas "Pokes" Cowboys
last championship: None, fell a yard short against the Rams and a half to the Bills!

Having grown up in Houston and watching the Gamblers and Jim Kelly in the Astrodome, I have always been a Oiler fan and when I joined the Army in 1987, it was not until I was assigned to Fort Campbell, KY, living in Clarksville, Tennessee that Bud realized the team needed to move and follow it's number 1 fan. The initial years were good in the state with a temporary home and the first in Nashville where a Superbowl appearance laid in our midst, but things have gone downhill ever since. Still a fan, but don't have to like them. Losing to the POKES in week 2 was devastating....but I am still alive.

yrs as a fan: 25 years 1989
team rivalry: Giants, Eagles, Redskins, Cardinals, Packers, 49ers, Steelers....
your personal grudge match: Thanksgiving 1993 vs Miami. Leon Lett slides into the football, TD Miami.
last championship: 1995

I put the Cards as a rivalry from when they were in the East. I grew up in AZ and when the Cards moved there not as many Cowboys games were on. I also cannot stand their fans. Up until they went to the Super Bowl I did not know a single Cardinals fan, amazing how that works. Oh and Romo has not been the problem it has been our defense.

Well, SSG Private RallyPoint Member, many of these posts are now passé! It's down to:

1. Green Bay at Seattle
2. Indianapolis at New England

And it all happens today!

SSG Colette Simons, I can't really remember, because you never say anything about it, but who's your favorite team?!

The Pittsburgh Steelers. I would say the team rival is the Baltimore Ravens which I absolutely despise. I would like to see the Steelers vs. Cowboys in the Super Bowl again so the Steelers can get revenge for Super Bowl XXX that Neil O'Donnell (QB for Pittsburgh) gave to Dallas by throwing 2 interceptions to the same DB with no receivers in sight. Oddly enough O'Donnell left the Steelers after that with a big contact with the Jets. Last Super Bowl win was Super Bowl XLIII in 2009.

I grew up a Baltimore/Indianapolis Colts Fan. And since I live in Washington State I'm pretty foud of the Seahawks. But I have a total dislike of the Pittsburgh Steelers and New England Patriots. I wonder if New England will ever learn to play fair. The Colts would have played better without flat balls! And they would have been able to tackle better! LOL! Just kidding Pat fans!!! You really know how to win!!! LOL!

I was a Cowboys fan since I was a little yungun back in Dallas Texas. I never ever fell off of the wagon and still love em to this day! Its just something about being a fan with loyalty that makes hope spring eternal at the start of each season and again hoping for another and better outcome the following year. Go Cowboys!
