Obviously UK is everyones favorite team, unless youre satan, but what other teams do your cheer for in any sport?
NBA: Nets
NFL:Lions
CFB/CBB: UK

I also loosely claim the Athletics in MLB, Red Wings in NHL and ManU in soccer.
 
NBA: Knicks
NFL: Jets
MLB: Cardinals
NHL: Blues
I have a deep hatred for all Boston and Chicago sports teams.
 
used to be staunch reds fan and then celtics fan after bird came onboard but now don't follow any pros. i've always been somewhat of a dayton fan since moving to ohigh last century. going to ud tuesday to watch ud/bama to get primed (they serve beer there thru halftime) for the basketball season which kicks off later that night, as you all know. gbb
 
NBA - teams with Kentucky kids
NFL - Miami Dolphins
MLB - Braves

Browns, Indians, and Ohio State

I love Ohio. Not as much as Kentucky but it has good memories for me.
 
College football: LSU, all SEC teams
NFL: NY Giants, mostly because of Odell Beckham

My other favorites are year-to-year.
NBA: in recent years I've liked Phoenix, Dallas, San Antonio, Cleveland, OKC, Golden State
 
Second NCAAF team: Clemson Tigers
NBA, just whichever Cats are playing
NHL: Detroit Red Wings
Cheering for UK BB is a full time job, so no seconds there
 
Bengals, Reds, and any NBA team that has a former UK player on it.

I remain loyal to UK football even though at this point I've came to accept the fact that the "Lucy yanking the ball out from under Charlie Brown (and then politely handing it over to the other team)" routine from them will never change. Don't really have a backup team for their inevitable crapping of the bed, but I do pull for the SEC teams in bowl games except for Tennessee and Florida.
 
As a WKU alum I'll keep up with the Toppers. Grew up a lifelong Bengals and Reds fan as well and I love USA Soccer. Don't really care about the NHL or the NBA.

My mid-major favorite..............My favorites were the all instate team
of McDaniels, Glover, Haskins ,and the Smith bros.
Was friends with Clem when he was coach. Provided transportation
for recruits in return for free tickets and admittance to the courtesy room.

I am the mom of a Belmont graduate and a Temple freshman, so I root for them. My dad was a UGA alum so I root for them unless they are playing UK. I have a friend whose son plays football for Virginia and a bunch of other kids who go there so I usually root for them.

At the pro level I am a huge fan of all the Boston teams. I've been a Celtics fan since I was a kid and then married a Boston guy. It's been a fun time since 2000. Can't believe my Patriots pulled out that win today over the Giants!!

I still have a soft spot for the Redskins and Wizards too after living in the DC area for 22 years.
 
Bengals
Reds
Celtics
Ohio State if not playing UK
Anyone playing Puke even in Tiddlywinks
 
Virginia Cavaliers, obviously UK is and will always be my no.1
I was born in Lexington, KY and went to school here. A lot of my family lives in KY and are huge wildcat fans. I pretty grew up though in VA and my dad's a big fan of them. He's a Virginia guy, so I pull for them for him.

Some of my fellowship friends are Michigan State and Ohio State fans and alums so I guess I root for them from time to time

I pull for the Redskins in NFL

49ers and I also have started to like the Patriots cause I feel like they get the same kind of petty hate UK basketball does.

Red Sox
Celtics and Kings. Root for UK guys obviously
Also a big Roger Federer fan
 
Living in the Cincinnati area for the past 50+ years, I am a fan of the Reds and Bengals. I kind of pull for the local Xavier because I absolutely hate the Bearcats. Of course UK will always be the top Cat.

I want to see the other state teams do well (besides UofL).

No favorite pro teams; just like to see Kentucky guys do well

Anyone that plays UofL, IU, UNC*, Duke, UCLA, Georgetown, Missouri

That's pretty much me from top to bottom. Except I grew up a baseball fan. I've kinda lost interest now but i don't hate it per se. I still follow the Reds. I didn't even watch the World Series.
