Ha, I knew you wouldn't be able to resist. In all honesty though to me it's stupid to have multiple teams. The dedication it takes to really be a fan leaves room for only one.



For what it's worth, I agree. I can't follow more than one soccer team, except for the US National Team and Bayern. I have teams I would prefer to win in different leagues but I couldn't tell you anything about the club.

I only watch City matches consistently. I have anti-Big2 rooting interests, otherwise, I just don't care. It's just the way I am.

This, except I follow SKC along with Chelsea. No way I could follow any other teams as much as them. In my earlier post, I was just talking about watching a team in the league and finding a rooting interest in said league rather than becoming a huge fan of them.

Basically, I think it is okay to root for multiple teams, but I don't know how someone could follow 3 or 4 or 5 teams to the extent that you could consider yourself a true fan of all of them. For me it is SKC, Chelsea, and USA that I consider myself a true, diehard fan of, and Belgium that I am just a regular fan of because of my ancestral ties and because I like a lot of their players. But I will also try to start watching other leagues more, so I will try to find certain teams that I like to watch in those leagues too.

This makes the most sense to me. Follow 1 club and then your own national team.

I can understand if someone supports their local MLS team and a European team for the sake of the quality of the product and knowing people over there actually care what happens to them but two or more teams within UEFA is meh.
