I don't just have one. I have 4. my first was The Mets. I love all the guys and it was great to see them win in 1986. I also love The Dodgers.Tommy Lasorta is my man and when I started rooting for them ,Fernando Valenzuela was their pitcher.i loved him too. And then Mike Piazza was a Dodger too. Yummy.And lately, ever since 2003, I have become a Red Sox fan,my 1st and only American League team.Why? Simple. any team that hates the Yeankees as much as I do, I have to root for.And it was great timing because Kirk Schilling was a Red Sox and they were to Finally win the World Series.And last but not least, The Washington Nationals.They sre the local team and they may not be that good but they do have heart.What is your favorite team? And Yankees fans, I will not hold your choice against you. I am just curious.

I'm a fan of the Cleveland Indians. I finally got a chance to watch baseball around 1998 since where I lived all I had was the Braves on and I didn't really root for them at all. I have to stay loyal to my team. It's an Ohio thing. As far as the Reds, I really don't follow them but I think they could do better if there was better effort put into the team.

I hope you can accept this from a Red Sox fan but I am sorry about The Indians.Isn't Dusty Baker the new manager of the Reds? How do you think he'll do?

The Rockies are proof of that. A different star is born each game they play.

I believe you're right. I think he might do ok but I'm not sure about a post-season birth. I think the NL Central will probably be one of the most competitive divisions in the National League, bar none. If the Reds can get team chemistry, then they might have a chance of doing well but only time will tell. You don't have to have the best players in baseball, they just have to be able to play well as a team.

Baltimore Orioles. Why? Because if ya noticed, they are doing much better than ever, even though they never even made it to the Playoffs. They could have, should have, and truly are real good!

I'm a Cleveland native, so I love my Indians. I was born and raised in Cleveland so I love my Cleveland teams.

I'm trying to be un-bias because I enjoy umpiring so much, but I like rooting for the New York Yankees and the Arizona Diamondbacks. I was always a Yankee fan even though my family are Red Sox fans. I've been rooting for the D-backs ever since they came into the league. I've got family in Arizona who I visit every year and I just fell in love with the D-backs and their ballpark.

I love the guy but spelling isn't my strong suit.Okay, I have to ask, when the D-Backs and the Yankees played in the Series, whom did you want to see win the most? Or was it a tie?And how are you dealing with your very happy Red Sox fan family members?
