>I will not tell anyone that you are from Berkeley! :) Berkeley and Stanford - oil and water!
Uh-oh, the cat's out 'o the bag! Yes, I'd root for Cal first were they available, I grew up hanging around Telegraph Ave and the campus. But I like Stanford almost as much, due to friends attending, and I worked in SF a long time ("proximity" cheering), also. Plus, it's good to have "rooting options."
Like in Pro Football, I root for Raiders, 49ers, Ravens, Pats, and Redskins, since I've lived extended periods in all places. Makes it much easier to get a Superbowl winner this way! (but when they play each other, that's also a problem).
