    If your all-time favorite player from your favorite team left, would you follow the player or stay with the team?

    This happened when I was a kid, when the Saints traded Danny Abramowicz to the 49ers.

    this.

    Example, if Brees left the Saints for team x, I would be interested in how he did but not necessarily watch all of his games. I would still watch all of the Saints games.

    Yup. I wouldn't give up a life-long following of a team because someone was traded or released. But I would always check in every once in a while and see how they were doing.

    I gave up on the Broncos when John Elway retired and they kicked Steve Atwater to the curb.

    As a kid, Larry Johnson was my favorite basketball player. He went from the Charlotte Hornets (which I was a fan of) to the New York Knicks. I switched teams to the Knicks.

    Even when the Hornets came to New Orleans, I still remained a loyal Knicks fan.

    Now, as an adult....I would absolutely stay with the team. My favorite teams are etched into stone and no player is going to change that.

    p.s. I hope CP3 goes to New York. :grin:

    p.p.s. If Brees pulled a LeBron on New Orleans, I would simply kill myself.

    That is all.
