Begrudgingly have the Big Game on. I grew up in San Diego reflexively hating anything related to L.A., and that compulsive recoiling from Los Angeles teams remains.
So, as much as I appreciate Matt Stanford finally getting a chance at a Super Bowl, I just can’t bring myself to pull for the Rams.
Having said that, I wonder if my rooting for Cincinnati is another sign of how much of a Midwesterner I’ve become.
