My dad is a Dodgers fan, so I root for them when they are in the playoffs and the Cubs aren't.

 

Ha ha, same here. I rarely have secondary teams, but the Dodgers are the one -- baseball is the only sport my dad and I have different rooting interests (though he has become a secondary Cub fan on my behalf).

For this weekend the Padres (especially since the Cubs can't take care of their own business). Normally I don't have a second team. Cubs all the way. That would change if Charlotte ever gets a team (although the Cubs would still clearly be #1 with me).

I've seen some of the Marlins' players in AA (Carolina Mudcats), but I just can't root for them given the Cubs' recent history with the Marlins.

What the hell is this?

 

Screw 2nd teams. Cubs or bust. I'll root against our rivals in October and that's the closest I'll come.

I chose the Braves though I don't root for them. I only like them because I became a baseball fan a year or so before the Maddux left and went to Atlanta. So, since I was able to get Braves games on tv, and really liked Maddux, I would watch them and hope he did well...just not against the Cubs. I haven't really paid much attention to them the last few years. I don't root for any other nl team.

I don't hate any of them; but don't like any of them enough to vote.

 

I like some of their players, but again, not enough to sway me.

Don't have one.

 

That said, so long as it's not the Cardinals or Astros, I'll root for the NL team in the WS.

 

In 2005 I basically pretended the world didn't exist.

Hate them all,

 

both of my other teams are in the AL: the Cleveland Indians and the Kansas City Royals, but they're not even close to the Cubs.

I don't know that you can really have a 2nd favorite in the NL unless you were raised in a split household. AL teams are fine to root for, but not somebody you're actively fighting with for most of the season.
