How did you fall in love with your favorite team or teams? Are you a fan of multiple teams in the same league? Do you always root for the underdog? In episode three of Sports IQ, we aim to figure out the emotional and psychological reasons we chose to root for the teams we do. Anthony interviews his daughter Isla and Edward Hirt, who is a professor of Psychological and Brain Sciences at Indiana University, to find out some of the psychology behind sports fandom.
