Unlike you flakey fricks, I only have one team. Every other team can burn for all I care.

What a lame opinion.

I can watch basically any international match that means something (qualifier or in a tournament) and usually enjoy it.

Regarding OP's question:

Brazil, Germany, Spain - Because dey good.

England - Because I follow the Prem pretty closely. I'd like to see Gerrard, Lampard, Rooney, and that crew make a decent run.

Côte d'Ivoire (and most other African teams) - Bunch of athletic dudes that play there arse off.

Scotland (because of my heritage)
Australia (because of Cahill)
Spain (because frick you)

England used to be my number 2. A combination of language, heritage and familiarity.

However, starting with Germany's change in 2006 WC, they leapfrogged England and are firmly (a distant) second team for me.

Englands my third team.

I have a revolving door for my next spot - usually depending upon players.

Italy, Netherlands, Argentina, France (with Zidane ) have occupied that spot before. Currently, its probably Uruguay because of all that attacking talent. They are pretty fun to watch. But I have an eye on Belgium and Columbia too.

Germany - 'twas the first football I started watching and was captivated by them.

Czech Republic and Turkey - spent significant time in both these countries and watched many matches with friends I made there. They are almost always the underdog and I enjoy that aspect

And Ireland if they ever get any where...

Just watch Everton. We have their only four good players.
