Poll question: NFC or AFC? (Not just this year...)
I mean, what conference did you watch and favor over the other? I'm an old NFC fan - Skins, 49ers, etc from back in the day. I hated the Dolphins and Raiders, etc. The first AFC team I rooted for in the Super Bowl was the Bills. I never watched NBC games - always watched CBS.

Which side do/did you fall on?

1. Eagle fan from the Snead days
When games were played at Franklin Field and the championship game was somebody's home game. Halftime shows were a high school band. The Colts and Steelers and Browns used to be in the "old" "NFL"

3. NFC
I grew up with the Giants of LT and Phil Simms. The NFC East in those days was amazing. The Giants, Skins and Eagles were all very good.

5. I only cheer for the Eagles.
I'll cheer for the AFC in the Super Bowl most of the time because they are playing someone who beat us along the line. I don't believe in that bullshit about cheering for the team who beat you to "take it for the conference". Fuck that.

As far as watching though, I watch all the games thanks to Sunday Ticket and TIVO so I don't favor any conference in that sense.

Except for the Cowboys.

8. NFC
I'm a Saints homer but screw it, I'll pull for our archrivals if they're in the playoffs. NFC!
