Chicago Bears. I grew up a Bear fan and they are hardwired into me. The Bears are like a religion to me. I missed only 2 games on tv, in the past 25 years. My nephew got married on a Sunday and I blew off the wedding. Teed people off, screw em. He ended getting divorced anyway, he was 19 or 20, why waste my time. And who gets married on a Sunday during football season?
The Bears have a rich tradition, oldest team along with Green Bay. History of tough players, championships, great defenses. Most players in the hall of fame.
Da Bears!

I root for the team of my home town. Unfortunately, my home metropolitian do not have a football team. The metropolitian area with the most people in the USA have no football team.

Denver Broncos. Because I grew up there. Since then I've moved away to Arizona so I adapted AZ as my NFC team. But the reason I liked these teams in the first place is location. It's about representing the area in which you live.

The Raaaaaaaaaidderzzzzzzz... Heh
I grew up in the South Bay, and my entire extended family have been 49er fans since the team was founded. My parents grew up attending games at Kesar Stadium.
So what's my problem? I've always been the *Black* sheep in the family anyway, and I just refused to go with the flow, and fell in love with the big bad Raiders.
When I was 6 and my brother 3, my dad took us to the store to buy us NFL uniforms. On the endcap were mannequins, one with a 49er uniform, the other with a Raider. My dad pointed to the 9er one and said, "Here's what I'm gonna buy you today."
I pointed to the Raider one and said, "No, I want that one."
Dad, now very pale, said, "No, we' like the 49ers."
"No," I answered, "*I* like the Raiders."
I got my uniform :)

I'm a proud member of the official NFL 12th man club... the Seattle Seahawks!
I've always liked them as long as I can remember, though can't explain why. I go back to the Jim Zorn, Curt Warner (the RB, not the QB), and Steve Largent days.. No bandwagon fan here.

My family is devoted to the Packers. Dad here is a fanatic. Mom (me) thinks Brett will see me in the stands, and sweep me off my feet. All of us just love the heart of a team who has the history of Lombardi, fans who brave -10 degree weather to watch a game, cheese hats, and an unshakeable belief that they are the greatest team ever.
Plus...........in Los Angeles......who else is there?

deffinitly the Pittsburgh Steelers. i have loved the steelers since i was 5, and the rest of my family loves the brown so it kinda sucks.... i have read so much about the steelers in the 70's. i mean think of how great that would have been to be a huge steelers fan in the 70's? no body would be complaining about "oh, they didnt get the touchdown so they shouldnt have won" or "the refs blew the game thats unfair".
GO STEELERS
