Believe it or not this isn't directed at you in particular Bushie, though your comment reminded me of this issue I have...am I wrong to think it a violation for someone to like a team from a collegiate institution they didn't attend?

The most classic examples I can think of in my personal experience are a) Notre Dame fans, and  b) people who attended Penn State satellite campuses but love the main campus football team and do the whole "we are Penn State" schtick.  It's sort of related to, I didn't attend large relatively local public (or even only game in town private school) institution X but i like them anyway...which again, sorry Bushie, I also have a problem with.

More borderline is the old..."well my brother/sister/parent went there" rationale. 

Am I alone in this?  (GET OFF MY LAWN KIDS)

Now I went to a pretentious, expensive (sigh) Liberal Arts college for undergrad, and an ok/decent at best private, less pretentious but no less expensive but better known law school.

Is it a violation if I am a fan of my Law School's teams IF I still let my undergraduate leanings trump it?
