Post why your favorite team is your favorite team, Why you like them, How you came to like them, When you started liking them? I'll begin..

I started being a Patriots fan back on my 11th birthday when my oldest brother bought me a Drew Bledsoe jersey (#11, on my 11th Birthday!).

The reason I adopted the Pats as my favorite team is at the time, They haven't won a championship, and I wanted a fresh team.

I was a huge Bledsoe fan, I loved Ty Law, McGinest, Milloy, and I loved the uniforms.

I've been a Pats fan ever since, I still have my Bledsoe jersey, and i'll die a Patriots fan.

Your turn!

Umm i was born in Boston and have lived here my whole life. I started playing football when i was 6 or 7 years old and the Patriots were on tv every Sunday. And yes, I watched them every sunday after my own game was over.... even though they werent all that good (with the exception of the 96 super bowl run)

Grew up 15 minutes from Rich Stadium (now Ralph Wilson). Western New Yorkers are passionate about their football and hockey. It just doesn't go away, even though I've lived in Chicago now for 21 years. I became more of a fan over the years due to my dad (who continued to live in WNY and has since passed). Even though they haven't won a Superbowl, I'll always be a fan.

Grandparents lived in Marin County, and went to my first SF 49ers game and saw the Niners just crush Jerome Bettis and the St. Loius Rams!

Easy. Like any self respecting NFL fan, I grew up in the hometown (South Florida) of my favorite team (the Fins). I don't get how people can switch it up and just "pick" favorite teams to root for. Love 'em when they're 17-0, love 'em when they're 1-15...whaddaya gonna do? Hell, now that I live in Detroit, I bought Lions season tickets this year so I could root against the Pats and the Jets at Ford field. Yep...it's that bad...
