How hard would it be for you to cheer against your team?


Lewis Scott seriously got the ultimate revenge on Mike and Jimmy by making them wear Jazz jerseys and root for him at the game. That is every die hard sports fans worst nightmare is to go to a game and wear a shirt of the team you hate and have to root for them.

So I want to take a poll here for all the die hard sports fans out there, if you were Mike or Jimmy, would you actually be able to do it? Just imagine your favorite sports team is in the championship game and you are told that you MUST root for the other team or you are going to prision.

So Patriots fans, you have to go to the AFC Championship game at Gillette Stadium where they are playing the Colts. And you have to wear a Peyton Manning jersey and cheer for the Colts to win otherwise you are going to jail. Could you actually do it?

Just substitute your favorite team and your most hated rival into that scenario and answer. :)

Well I'm from seattle but I cheer for my teams pretty hard, especially the Seahawks. But obviously if I were in the same situation of facing life in prison or rooting for the Yankees over the mariners I would. Hell, I would get Derek jeters face tattooed on my ass if I had to. I always wondered if he would have turned them in even if the jazz lost that game. They showed him how to be a team player, I mean what if lurch Patrick Ewings that lay in. Would that be their fault.?

Nope can't do it. I'm a Packers fan. Even if I tried to use the jinx excuse, I don't think I could manage. It's just wrong. And having kids that went against my team and said a member of the Vikings, Bears or Lions were their hero, that would be heartbreaking. Time to abandon the family right there.

The people you idolize wouldn't like you.
