my answer: Make them watch Stanford football when young.  It worked, sort of.  My oldest watched when I made her.  She ended up at Stanford for undergrad and graduate.  Downside?  After freshman year, she only actually went to games when I showed up to see them in person. She was a good sport but the inoculation didn't take.  Round two:  Youngest daughter watched football but drew the conclusion that she should support a team that won more than it lost.  So she went to Bama and became a brobdingnagian fan.  Worse, on a weekly basis she would verbalize the comparison between each school's weekend result.  Still does, but is much nicer about it.
