Holy Christ. Are you guys 12 years old?
Or are you one of these douchebags who like different cities in different sports?
"I'm a huge Detroit Red Wings fan."
Ever been to Detroit?
"Nope."
Have family in Detroit?
"Nope."
Know ANYONE in Detroit?
"Nope."
Uh, ok. So your a Pistons fan?
"Nope. Lakers."

The whole '2nd team' thing has always seemed wrong for some reason... on one hand, it is just entertainment, and it makes no difference to me what people do with their time and money. I'm certainly not the smarter one for wasting so much time and money on the Chiefs over the past decade, when I clearly should have become a Patriots fan the moment they beat the Rams in the Super Bowl. OTOH, whenever someone says "they're my 2nd team," I can't help but laugh at them a little.
I respect what other teams do and like watching other teams, and I'll pull for certain teams in the postseason, but there's no "2nd team"... outside of the obvious conflict of interest when they play each other ("oh, but I'm always a Chiefs fan first" derp), it's just... weird. I'd do without having a team all together before adopting a new one.
