Sports and music are totally different though. People don't always root for the best teams/players (e.g. Ole Miss fans). They have a wide variety of reasons to root for certain teams. In music, why would your favorite be anything other than what you think is the best or what you enjoy the most?
Plus in sports there are objective measures than can pretty much prove who the better player/team is. That isn't the case for music.

You can have a favorite band, mine is Zeppelin, and still say the Beatles are the better band. I don't understand why you can't fully enjoy a band/artist and still concede that there are other bands/artists that are better?

I agree. The Saints are my favorite team because I'm from LA and grew up watching them. I realize they aren't better than the Texans or the other good teams in the NFL right now.
One of my favorite bands right now is The Avett Brothers. They are one of my favorites because I think they sounds better than most other bands right now, therefore they are better to me.

Screw your analogy but I agree with what you are saying.
Secondly I couldn't care less what the damn music snobs think about certain bands due to them "selling out" and I'm a bit of a snob. I like what I like and don't give a shite what others say. Oh and The Black Keys IMO or anything with Jack White.
