And if it does n't work , well , back to the drawing board . From the moment we became sports fans , we ' ve been conditioned to hate the uniform . It started early with the Dodgers . Being Giants fans , no matter who played for LA , we had to hate them . Take the entire Giants 25-man roster , put them in Dodger Blue and we 'd root against them any day of the week .

Question: What if their favorite baseball player is traded to the Dodgers ?
Answer: They will change favorite teamsThey would instantly dislike themThey will root for just the one playerThey will still like the player
