who does that but you know tyler bray kindof reminds me of peyton.

I am a Peyton fan. Because of this, I am now a Broncos fan.

No

I will always and forever be a Vol fan but I will never bandwagon. Players will come and go in the NFL. What happens when that player retires? Im happy that Peyton has had a pretty solid career, but I am a Kansas City Chiefs fan and it is now my obligation to hope Peyton never wins another game in the NFL.

Luckily Eric Berry is on my NFL team so it takes the sting out of having to root against Peyton, one of my favorite players of any sport ever.

Same here. Doubt I'll even care for the NFL once Peyton retires.

I was a Balitmore Colt from 1964 until they left town in 1984.

I was never an Indianapolis fan so i won't be a Denver fan either.

I don't see how you're a "fake" fan if you're upfront about your loyalty to a player. I'll cheer for the Broncos because I want Peyton to win, not because I'm a Broncos fan. I cheer for the Chiefs because I want to see Berry succeed. The only team I hate with any passion in the NFL is the Pats. And it's not really the Pats I hate, it's Bellichik and Brady. I like to see Mayo make good plays, but I cannot cheer for the Pats.

I was a bronco fan last year because of the tebow experience. I will continue to be a bronco fan because of peyton. Hope he stays healthy.

I can't. My brother is a disgustingly rabid bronco fan.

I have no ties to the Titans. When I left TN, they were still the Houston oilers. So yes, now I am a Broncos fan.

[PimpVol]

No. Not a Denver fan.

I love football but do not feel the same way about any team. I cheer for all our NFL Vols. It is different with Peyton as I did become a Colts fan so now I am a Bronco fan. I never felt a strong tie to the Titans. I understand that can be considered as "bandwagon" esque. Since Denver has a few Vols playing for them my bond to them is that much stronger.

To my question. How many of you, that weren't Bronco fans, are now rooting for Denver? Some are probably going to be negative but am I the only one on VN that feels this way?

I'm not a professional sports fan of any team sport. they are just not very interesting to me. I might check box scores from time to time to just see how former Tennessee kids might be doing but do not go out of my way to follow any team.. could not tell you standings of any of the major leagues at any point..

tried one Titans game and was ready to leave by end of first quarter.. years ago when they had McNair playing.

[Wylo]

Not at all.

[tennezz]

NO!

I'm a Siants fan. I know that we are in trouble now; however, I will still buy season tickets unless they turn into the Aint's again, and I'm forced to wear a paper bag over my head. On the other hand, I've always cheered for Peyton Manning (No matter what team he plays for in the NFL). I really want him to be successful in Denver. If anyone deserves to be rich & famous, it is Peyton. If my son can grow up and be half the person that Manning is, I will be thrilled.
Also, I'm talking about as a person; not his money.
I can also say that he & UT should have a Heisman Trophy.
Charles Woodson is a great player, but him winning over Peyton Manning was a fix.
