Rank your Top5 sports team you root for

A friend asked me this over the weekend and I thought it would be easy... not so much:

 

1. Panthers
----------------
2a. Hornets
2b. Tarheel basketball
----------------
4. Baltimore Orioles
5. Tarheel football

 

My 1st was a no brainer obviously but 2nd fav team was actually really tough. I had to envision a huge loss and a huge win and my reactions to both to make a decision. In the end, I would be far more upset at the Heels losing a big game in the tourney but not so devastated if the Hornets lost a big series in the playoffs.. [so edge to the Heels, right?] But at the same time if the Hornets won a big matchup in the playoffs, simply to advance to the 2nd round or Conference Finals- I would be way happier than if the Heels got to the Final Four.

I think it has a lot to do with expectations - I expect the Heels to always be good and expect the Hornets always to collapse, but it was still fun to go back and forth with my friend [NC State fan] on who he thought his Top5 were.

1: Panthers

No need for explanation really. Obvious choice.

2: Hornets

Again. Lived here all my life so far. No brainer

3: Tarheels FB/BB

Tarheels fan all my life. Will stick true even though we have cheated

4: Tottenham Soccer? Football? Whatever you want to call it.

Started watching the BPL in 2010. Was hooked onto this team as well as my oldest brother. Who still cheers for the London team to this day. By far my favorite team in Soccer

5: UConn BB

I watched Uconn's Big East run in 2010. Was stuck on immediately. Have been a big fan ever since. I was so happy when the Hornets picked Kemba. Looks like they have made the correct decision.

Panthers are the only sports team I root for at any level in any sport and the NFL is the only sport/sports league I actively follow at all, though I do passively follow Royals baseball as well... definitely got caught up in the World Series runs the past 2 years.

    • Btw... only Mitch fugging Marner has a better +/- than Key 🔑!!! And, Mitchy needed 5 more games and almost 100 more shifts to get there.
    • I was honestly flabbergasted to see Rod send out Stanky and the boys to to matchup against their top line to start the game. The reason that line has been so effective is because they've been matched mostly against 2nd and 3rd lines all year. You've got last change. Use it to your advantage.
    • Nobody played well on defense last night. But, the vitriol towards Chatfield (and to a lesser extent, K'andre) is bigly misplaced. People (not just you) just refuse to accept how bad Slavin has been this season. And, I get it. Canes fans (and informed analysts) have spent nearly a decade trying to explain to casuals just how good Jaccccob is at hockey. 4Nations happened and the hockey watching public started to listen. National media even started floating the idea of creating a new award in his honor. Then this season, he gets hurt. It happens. NBD. But, when he finally came back, it wasn't the same. He'll get back to his old self in no time. Probably just some rust, it'll be fine. Only, it wasnt rust, and he's not fine. He's bad right now. It wasnt just last night. Although, that was absolutely the worst game of his NHL career. Slavin (-4) currently has the 3rd worst +/- of anyone left in the playoffs. We've  been begging the world to recognize Jaccob Slavin's greatness. And, by the time we finally got people to listen, he shits the bed! I blame Kash!
