I can't get fully into a club team either. It's so fricking contrived that I just can't handle it. Listening to Americans shite talk each other about Man U vs man city or some shite is just absurd to me. More power to you if you are able to look past that and enjoy it, I just can't.

I'm with you. It's not like I'm dissing those who will pick a team at random, without having a real connection to the team or city. I just don't really understand it. I find more joy watching and enjoying the game for what an awesome game it is. I also kind of feel like it makes you less biased when it comes to judging teams.

Not anymore contrived than someone from North Mississippi rooting for an American professional team. Some people had a favorite player when they were first learning the game and decided to root for the team he plays for even after he left. In my case, I was a big fan of John Stockton and Michael Owen (WC98) growing up. I still root for LFC and Jazz even though they are long gone. Hell, I might be the only non-Mormon Jazz fan (who was not alive when the Jazz played in New Orleans) in the state of Mississippi.
