Individual pride I think makes sense, at least if you did something to achieve that pride.

Racial pride, national pride, and pride in a sports team (and anything like that) doesn't really make much sense to me though since your basically taking credit for what others accomplished just because you happened upon them by random chance. Though even so, I still take pride in my sports teams winning championships, willingly knowing I did nothing to get them there

Well that's perfectly put what I would have said.
