If you had to root for a team besides your own
Which would it be and why?
I Would likely go for Anaheim myself, Getz and Perry are two of my favrite players. I'm interested in Gertners and Spilchuks answer to this. Quote:

Probably the Senators seeing as they're the home town team and all.

The Pens have always been my favorite team since I was young enough to follow hockey. However, since Lemieux retired for the second time, it's been more or less a formality.
I like to cheer for every Canadian team along side the Pens now. Yes, even the Leafs (I was a huge Leaf's hater for 20 years). I'd like to see the Cup finally come home and hear Buttman boo'd at center ice. |

This is tough, because I can't imagine rooting for anybody else. When the Leafs don't make the playoffs I end up cheering against teams I hate. I ESPECIALLY don't want a Canadian team winning it.
If the Leafs didn't exist, probably Boston because I love fighting and hitting, even though Jack Edwards is a douche. Baseball, hmmmm wow, the Phillies because I love Roy Halladay Football, Arizona Cardinals and I have nothing to back this up, just have always liked them. Basketball is easy : Toronto Raptors. The only reason I'm not a fan is because I was a Jazz fan before the Raptors entered the league. EPL: Stoke. I love underdogs. Chelsea has really pissed me off this season though. |

Usually its whoever is facing the rival or team I hate but more when its done in the playoffs (ex. Mavs over Lakers or anyone vs Duke).
Cardinals in NFL (logo reminds me a lot of my first pet I cared the most for) Braves and Cubs in MLB (Braves due to TBS, Cubs due to being related as "Loveable Losers" with the Red Sox for years). A few others would be more of the specialness of the moment if they won (ex. Saints in NFL) or grew up watching at the time (ex. The Bulls due to Jordan) but wouldn't last long enough to become a 2nd team to cheer for. |

The Senz since they are the closest thing to a home team and as for MLB i'd have to go with the Boston Red Sox since they are part of the same division and have had several of my favorite players on their roster in the past and presently.

The Angels used to be my fav. AL team, but I've grown tired of Mike Scioscia and they way he goes about things.
Right now, I'm a pretty big fan of the Rays. I like the way they do business. They have that small market shit down. Not to mention, Evan Longoria is awesome. Skippord will like this; My NL team outside of the Padres is the Rockies. Love Tulo. Guy is amazing to watch. |

I put the teams I do root for in parentheses.
NHL: Kings (Bruins) NCAA Hockey: North Dakota (Northeastern) EPL: Everton (Tottenham) NFL: Chiefs (Patriots) MLB: Rockies (Red Sox) Could never root for a traditional rival or a divisional opponent, picking the Chiefs is even dodgy for me since they're in the AFC. I usually prefer a team with tradition but fans go a long way which explains the Rockies. And I hate glory hunters so even though this is purely hypothetical, I took that into consideration (couldn't pass up NoDak though). |

NHL: I like the St. Louis Blues for some reason... the Jets when they come back though
NFL: I used to also like the Bills/Giants but they can fuck off now. Maybe the Ravens? NBA: Raptors I guess... who cares? MLB: San Francisco Giants or Toronto Blue Jays ... even the Cubbies |

Penguins, because I was a big Lemieux fan when I was young. Maybe the Avs because of loyalty for Sakic. Sharks are another possibility. I like Marleau even though he was shit this year in the playoffs.
