I've always been really amused by the Cardinals/Cubs thing. In my area of Illinois (which is very southern), everyone roots for the Cardinals because...well. No one really likes the Cubs around here! For...reasons. I had a chemistry teacher in high school who was from Chicago and was a hardcore Cubs fan. We used to buy him little presents with the Cardinals logo to make him mad.
I don't really do the sport thing, though, so I don't really pick sides.
