I was born in Baltimore but grew up in Brooklyn and North Jersey. In the late 50s when I was old enough to follow sports I wanted to have my own teams and not just follow along with my father and his Yankees and fb Giants. I made the easy choices...my 'hometown' teams, the Orioles and Colts. Been a devoted Orioles fan ever since even though I moved to Houston in the late 60s. When the Colts bailed I couldn't bring myself to root for any other team until the Texans were born.
The only team I 'shared' with my father was our mutual 'first love', the NY Rangers.
