Like most people have said, watching the games are a great way to pick a team. Narrow it down to a few and then watch as much of them as you can. You will fall in love with a club.

Other things to consider:
1. Rivalries. This is a big one for me. Everyone wants to follow a club with rivals they can hate.
2. Table location. This is pretty self explanatory. If you want to follow a winning side, don't pick a team in the bottom half of the table. If you want to follow a club that will hoist trophies, pick a club in the top 6.
3. Tradition. Another big one. Wikipedia is your friend.
4. Financial standing. This is becoming extremely important in the modern game. You simply cannot win without money.
5. Find your niche. Do you want to see goals, do you want to win trophies, do you want to pull for the underdog, do you want to follow youth, do you want to pull for Americans, do you want to follow a team that is active in the transfer market, etc etc.

I spent many a boring day at my GA job on campus reading up on the EPL and every team. I have forgotten most of it, but it gave me a good background on most teams.
