Patriots fan since probably 1970, so endured lots of bad seasons
Celtics in the late 60s - again, my grandfather
Bruins - around the great Orr and Esposito years, I baby sat for the neighbors and they had a TV that got channel 38.

I am about to turn 65, so that's a lot of years invested in Boston sports - grew up in Rhode Island, now rooting from North Carolina!
