Old Joke - couldn't help it!
Edited on Sun Feb-03-08 03:20 PM by Donk Yore
A first-grade teacher explains to her class that she is an New England Patriots fan. She asks her students to raise their hands if they are Patriots fans too. Not really knowing what a Patriots fan was, but wanting to be liked by their teacher, their hands fly into the air.

There is, however, one exception. Gertrude has not gone along with the crowd. The teacher asks her why she has decided to be different. "Because I'm not a Patriots fan" she reports.

"Then," asks the teacher," What are you?"

"I'm a New York Giants fan," boasts the little girl.

The teacher asks Gertrude why she is a Giants fan.

"Well, my Dad and Mom are Giants fans, so I'm a Giants fan too," she responds.

"That's no reason," the teacher says. "What if your mom was a moron, and your dad was an idiot. What would you be then?"

Gertrude smiles and says, "Then I'd be a Patriots fan."

1. Well, I thought it was funny

And I live in Mass.
A generic oldie but goodie - could work for any two teams.
Only one thing wrong with it - the little girl's name gets changed at the end.
