This is a personal decision each fan must make, but I agree with your guidelines. It's hard to stay loyal to players who left your team, especially since there is no loyalty between players and teams (re: Damon). That's ok, though. I would jump to a rival company if the situation was right in a heartbeat.

That said, could you please fix that awkward spelling mistake in the 3rd paragraph in the body.
I think you want to say "loved" and not "lover."

How did I miss a chance to vote on this one?  Dunno, but this one's a gem.  Good work!

Love the rules.  I totally agree.  There is no loyalty in sports, so fans must adjust their own loyalties accordingly.  Of course, we all just root for laundry anyway.

Six months ago I couldn't have cared less about Coco Crisp.  Now I'm this close to buying a #10 Sox jersey (and not a throwback Rich Gedman jersey either).
