A couple points that I would like to add, and I do not have a team either:
Fulham and Everton seem to be the most popular non-power clubs because of their current ties to Dempsey and Howard, respectively. Bonus, Landon Donovan also went on loan to Everton.
In my opinion, there is really no bad choice in the EPL (yes, not even Manchester United) because it is highly unlikely that you have any ties to the team.
You should also read Bill Simmons's article on how he choose his team.
Part 1
Part 2
It is really worth the read. Let me know what you think because right now I am thinking Wolverhampton for some arbitrary reasons.

I have a friend who wanted to get into European soccer and he picked Wolves as his team (I have no idea why). Last year was his first year watching and he thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Their kits are nice too.

I read the Simmons articles, and Newcasted United and Tottenham Hotspur seem pretty cool, with Newcastle gaining the edge due to sweet uniforms, beer, and also I feel like Tottenham is kind of trendy. So I think I'll add Newcastle to my list along with Everton and Fulham.
When taking into account his idea of whether or not it's a vacation destination, Fulham would be #1 of those three, but I won't be going to any EPL games any time soon, so that doesn't matter a whole lot.
ETA: I think Craven Cottage is pretty cool.
