Discussion»Statements»Rosie's Corner» Which knocks your socks off faster? Your side "winning" or the other side "losing"? Do you take more pleasure in the positive or negative?
Generally the positive - except where the Port Adelaide (Power) football club is concerned, the MIGHTY Adelaide Crows' crosstown rivals. Schadenfreude kicks in when it comes to those gazebos. There are two teams I root for - the MIGHTY Crows and whoever is playing against the shower.
I think it's great to be invested in a sports team Sbf! Years ago when my "kid" was a teenager he and his friends rooted for the Los Angeles Lakers. My son was born in Massachusetts but that didn't matter to him. I, on the other hand, was a huge fan of Larry Bird so I rooted for the Boston Celtics . An epic rivalry. I was happy/devastated depending upon who won! But ya know what? Larry Bird and Magic Johnson respected each other and never badmouthed each other. I always admired that. Now I don't follow sports (well except for tennis and golf but they are really individual sports, not team unless you're talking about something like Fed cup.) Thank you for your reply! :)
