I'm curious. I assume that most of the people in this forum and those that are collecting baseball cards are pretty big baseball fans. My questions are about your rooting intrests:

1) How many of you are fans (diehard, fair weather or otherwise) of one particular team?

2) How did you get to rooting for that team? Were you born into it (maybe your dad rooted for the team)? Did you move to a city with a team?

3) How many of you have a favorite player that is NOT on your team?

You from the quad cities? im from clinton so your prolly a cubbie fan like me. I guess in IA you have a host of teams someone can claim (i.e cards, brewers, north side and south side chicago) being that we dont have a team of our own. but one trip to wrigley as a kid was all i needed to win my allegiance. but ironically my favorite player growing up was jeff bagwell.
