Would or could you still root for a team after they've moved out of your city? There's no way I could do it.

I'd be so angry that I'd likely actively root against them for the rest of my life. I hear people saying they'll still root for the Chargers or the Raiders after they move but I don't understand how someone can do that. They abandoned you and left you despite all your support and loyalty.
Shit, I root against the Giants and Dodgers and they moved out decades before I was even born.

They'll always be the KC Kings to me, but LA can have the Rams. -- nm - Baron Zero C Jan 13, 07:27

- Right?!? I have issues with teams that move and that I don't root for. I can't imagine the anger if it was a team I liked. - Krusty Jan 13, 06:42

- They'd be dead to me and I'd have no football team to root for anymore. -- nm - Krusty Jan 13, 06:35 2
  - They left your city years ago! -- nm - ty97, Queen of the Skies Jan 13, 06:37 1
    - Meh. I can't get too worked up about it but I'd much prefer them to play at New Shea or their own place in one of the boroughs. - Krusty Jan 13, 06:39
