Until Columbus got a NHL team I followed the Penguins and Red Wings. I'm a fan of the hometown teams through good times and bad.

Browns since 1982
Cavaliers since Kobe's trip to Eagle, Colorado
Reds since 1998
Jackets not sure when it spun. Probably when Roy retired.

MLB - The Cincinnati Reds. Have enjoyed the Reds since the Big Red Machine era (70's). Also enjoy the Cleveland Indians.
Minor League BB - The State College Spikes. Since its inaugural season in 2006!
NFL - The old Cleveland Browns since the early 1960's. The "new" Browns....well, they just flat out suck. They look like the Browns but the ain't my Brownies.
NBA - Could care less
MLS - Can't stand the favorite sport of the socialist Europeans! fuuuuuuuuuutebol lol
NHL - not a hockey fan
Bottom line: Not that much into pro sports these days. Too much $$$$$, too much greed, way too much over-the-top show boating, too many drugs, and too boring.
Baseball....................Detroit Tigers (cough, cough)
Football....................Detroit Lions (I know!) At least I'm not a Brown's fan!
Hockey.....................Detroit Red Wings (still capable but getting a little older...)
Basketball..................Detroit Pistons (without AI)

NFL - Cowboys since 1989, I grew up in a Browns family and root for them as well
MLB - Indians, Twins since the Kirby Puckett days... but the Indians are my #1
NBA - Cavaliers
NHL - Penguins since 1991-1992 season... yes, I jumped on this bandwagon when they won the championship... but I was a freshman in high school and they were fun to watch and the only NHL team close by. Winning certainly helped as well!!!

I started following baseball in the mid-90s when Cleveland was good and became an Indians fan and they are the only pro sports team I really care about.

NFL - Cincinnati Bengals - Since I was a kid
MLB - Cincinnati Reds - Since I was a kid
Live sort of close to Cincinnati and my family has always been fans of them.
NBA - Cleveland Cavs - 2008
Don't pay a whole lot of attention to the NBA I feel it's kinda boring but I'll root for the Cavs since they are an Ohio team. However if Cincinnati ever got an NBA team I would root for them.
