That said, I have not only watched Blazers' games with friends saying "As long as Brad Miller scores or gets the assist, it's okay for the Kings to score", but I have also cheered for Dwyane Wade at the United Center during a Bulls game. Granted, there were other people cheering for him, but I think probably all of them were related to him.

I'd love to hear reader's (I know somebody read this weblog) stories of desire for the demise of a home team (or adopted home team, former home team, etc.) in favor of fantasy players.
