I guess it's a matter of convenience to be a fan of the team down the street, same with the Preds. If I lived in east or west Tennessee I might feel differently but it's been almost 15 years now so I feel I have become a true fan of the team.
only reason you chose them is that they were close by? Not really different than anyone else's reasons for picking an NFL team.

Because everyone from Tennessee must root for the Titans?

I agree that anyone can pull for who they want. I don't expect my reason to be any better or worse that anyone else. I'm just saying why I became a fan and wondered if it would be different for someone had they lived in Nashville and been around them or if that makes no difference. I wasn't really a fan of any team when they arrived so that probably helped, in my case, to jump on the Titans bandwagon.

I don't agree with people that feel that way either but I also don't see anything wrong with being a Titans fan just because the team has only been here 15 years and I wasn't an Oilers fan first.

Good to see so many admit it, especially nbaker...

I think a lot of the frustration with colts fans in Tennessee, Colts are in the titans division... which they owned us over the years. For a long while Vols had tons of players in the NFL... but of course they only follow the most successful (in the nfl). It wouldn't be such a big deal if they weren't in the same division, i just hope to god he gets out of the AFC-south.

I would love to see the cluster-**** if he came to Tennessee, i doubt it will happen but it would be hilarious.

the bama fans referenced became fans when the team was good. If you started following the Colts when PM went there it's pretty much the opposite

WORST EXCUSE EVER.

98- 3-13
99- 13-3
00- 10-6
01- 6-10
02- 10-6

last year they didnt win 12+ games

in 98, 95% of "peyton/colt" fans may have watched 1 or 2 games caught the rest on espn. three season 10+ wins in the first 5 years.... yeah real tough...

maybe you "colts" fans think thats tough.... but trust me thats pretty good.
