As long as I have been on this earth and conscious of the sport I was watching, so maybe 22 years.

I love pro sports, but the only pro team I'm really, really intensely a fan of is the Minnesota Timberwolves.

I know that seems hilarious, but I am not at all joking.

I've been a fan since the team's inception. A close family friend played one season for them where he mostly warmed the bench, or...definitely warmed the bench, and then later became involved with the team. I was very young, so most of my first exposure to the NBA was through the Wolves.

My fanhood haunts me to this day.

Rickey Dudley played football. Well, professionally he did. And it wasn't for the Cavaliers.

Detroit Tigers since 1970
Detroit Red Wings since 1985
Detroit Pistons since 1989
I can't have a favorite football team. It would screw up my fantasy draft!

Detroit Tigers, Detroit Red Wings and The Ohio State Buckeyes.

I suppose in football I will root for the Lions and I like watching the Browns, but they are both so bad that it doesn't matter.

Well most of the teams I follow are locally, due to me being born where I was born. I follow them, but don't live and die and brag about them.

MLB - Cincinnati Reds - Was a youngster when the Big Red Machine was hot
NFL - Cincinnati Bengals - They are close to "home".
NBA - Boston Celtics...The exception to the rule. I played for the Celtics in 'Little Pro" B-Ball when I was in 4th grade living in Tennessee.
