As I kid I was a huge Raiders fan. I watched every game, knew all the players, read Bo Jackson's and Kenny Stabler's biographies and talked my parents into taking me to a Raiders game one year for my birthday. My fervor for the Raiders and professional football has long ago died, but I guess if I'm going to cheer for any NFL team it would still be them.

I've been to one A's game. As I kid I heard my brothers talk about the Oakland A's and my parents talk about the Oakland temple. For a long time, I thought the A's were the Mormon team.

I've been to a couple of Jazz games and a couple of Grizzlies games. I always supported the home team.
