Roll Call || Rep Your Team

As I was doing my daily song and dance of, "What On Earth Am I Going to Post Today?" an idea came to me that got me very excited. I posted a roll call to rep your team on instagram the other day, and so many of you responded in support of your team. I thought, what better way to connect fellow fans than to compile a list of bloggers (and non bloggers!!) sorted by fan base! 



This spur of the moment idea seems as if it might be incredibly time consuming on my end, but I don't even care I think it sounds like such a fun way to connect with your fellow fans --- and rivals!

All I'll need you to do is fill out this google doc below. List your favorite teams in any category, if you don't care for a specific sport, simply leave it blank. I also ask that you include a SQUARE picture of yourself, if you don't mind! This is how I'll be designing the pages for your specific team to flow cohesively! Your image and a clickable link to your blog will be included under your team's section, making for some good free advertising too! 

If you aren't a blogger, please come signup too! Just list either your Instagram or Twitter handle instead! 

I wish I could say this project has been MONTHS IN THE WORKS, but I quite literally just thought of it and this is how my brain works: 0 - 100 real quick. With that said, I don't have a cool name for this yet, but I'll work on that. 

I'm hoping this will be a bomb way for all of us sports fans to connect and make new friends, or, like I mentioned earlier, enemies.... muahhahaa! So please fill out this form, I've spent several minutes working on this idea, I would hate to see it be a flop.
Holler if you have any questions or if I messed up on the form, which is likely.

  3. I'm not a HUGE sports fan, and I really only have an NFL team I care about because of my fiance, BUT this is such a fun idea I had to sign up. :)

  4. I don't have any readily available pictures of me in my one and only sports gear (Saints jersey!) so you just got a picture of my purty face.

  10. This will be fun! My husband and I are also doing fantasy football, for the first time ever. I kept thinking to myself, "I need to read Sarah's posts about fantasy football," but because I'm lazy and forgetful it never happened. Hopefully my intuition of "that sounds like a good, sturdy name that won't let you down!" will turn out okay.

  20. This is so fun! I feel like I should win an award for still being a Tennessee fan after living in Tuscaloosa for over 2 years and my husband working for UA haha. The only UA sport I will root for over Tennessee is softball because the coaches, staff, and players treat him so well.

  21. What a FUN idea! I've lived in Australia for almost 7 years. Although they are a sporting nation here, I can't get into Aussie sports. I'm still an all-American sports fan!

  22. Love this! So, I might need to adjust my college team! lol! Growing up I was always a Michigan Wolverines fan, but as I get older I just don't care about college sports. Well, other than March Madness. lol!
