If it's not Boston College, is there another team you'd be okay with winning a national championship?
Over the weekend, I met up with a couple of friends at a bar for the Boston Red Sox game against the Kansas City Royals. One of the guys I was with made a mention that he was rooting for the Royals last year when they played San Francisco in the World Series, and, although he wasn't a hat-wearing, ticket-buying fan of the team, he hopes "to see someone different winning."
As guys often do, that led to a discussion on if you're allowed to root for a random team if your team is either not a factor or knocked out of a championship run.
