Mostly I follow Hadvar, because he's the nicest, though for my newest character I followed Ralof because I wanted the Imperial Captain's heavy armor to start out with instead of light armor that you always get.

Hey, it doesn't really matter in the end, right? Tulius or Ulfric totally forgives you when you present yourself to them (if you picked Ralof or Hadvar, respectively) and say "I wanna join!" and they're like "Sure!" and say that you're a tough son-of-a-gun because you survived Helgen and then throughout the Civil War campaign, they say that they're really lucky to have you about and that they rely heavily on you and give you free weapons!
