Do you ever just have one of those nights where you can't seem to figure out what you want to do, and you end up coming up with an idea for a thread you wanted to post? Because that's exactly how I came up with this. I watch a lot of sports in my free time, and I also happen to really enjoy tier lists and rankings. So, I asked myself, what was a way I could combine those two things? And then it hit me- what if I could rank all of the teams from various sports leagues and share my opinions online with people? Better yet, what if there was a place we could all discuss this together depending on what our favorite sports and leagues are?
This isn't just some idea that I came up with so I could have an excuse to post more tier lists. This is also my way of trying to find the answers to specific questions, such as "what is Cong's (referring to this forum) favorite insert league here team overall?" or "what teams are the most and least popular among other users?". There's other fun things we could look at in a thread like this, too- for example, maybe you have a division or a conference you enjoy on average across all of its teams and you want to rank those divisions or conferences. Maybe you have favorite teams across different sports, and you feel like ranking your favorites amongst each other. One thing I know I've been trying to do over the past two years is try and pin down the closest things I can find to "favorite teams" I could watch and support in ice hockey, baseball, and basketball, since I already have a pretty comprehensive list of which football and soccer teams I like. Those five sports are what I would consider the main, major sports over here in North America where I live, but that isn't to say other smaller sports don't deserve more attention either. This thread is meant to be somewhere where fans of any sport or league can hang out and discuss their likes and dislikes.
I'll get us started off in the discussions with an NFL teams tier list I just wrapped up before starting to write this post. I'm still working on a more definitive, organized ranking of all 32 NFL teams, since this is the league I probably know the most about, but this list I came up with to start off of lists every team organized by how much I like them across their respective divisions. Every NFL division has four teams, so this tier list is pretty much me ranking all of them in first, second, third, and last place so you can all get a decent idea of which teams I like more than others.
As an added bonus, I also wanted to finish off this post with a smaller ranking of all eight NFL divisions based on how much I enjoy their collection of four teams overall. This list will be ordered from most to least favorite, and you'll also be able to see which conference I like more. Happy posting, everyone, and I can't wait to see what rankings and lists you come up with!
