A study by the New York Times indicates that boys aged 8-12 are very impressionable by sports teams' successes. What's your story?
I grew up in a family of Green Bay Packers fans, within the borders of America's Dairyland. It's not like I really had much of a choice but to become a Packers fan. Still, if I'm being honest with myself, it was the team's mid-1990's run, including the victory in Super Bowl XXXI, that solidified my fandom as a lifelong endeavor.
It seems I'm not alone.
In an article that went live on Friday morning, the New York Times published the results of a study of sports fans' affiliations relative to their age, as reported by aggregated data from Facebook.
