This question was inspired by this r/nfl post. Curious to see if any of our fans share any of the same unhealthy obsessions.

    Not currently, but when I first became a fan when I was a kid, I immediately latched onto Brian Westbrook, and I wrote “BW36” on my hand every day before school for good luck. This lasted for months (I’m guessing this was throughout the season in 2003).

    Just a 10-year-old girl in Nebraska repping her favorite player on the team she had just randomly decided was her favorite less than a year prior.

    Over 20 years in, and I’m still head over heels in love with this football team from a city I’ve never been to, and on Monday night, I am finally seeing them in person for the first time.
