Who should I choose?
Liverpool has a good chance of winning the league this year so you're going to get the bandwagon label if you choose them.
Chelsea is a pretty douche-bag team. Go wikipedia John Terry. He's their "Captain, Leader, Legend" as they call him... This is a guy who made fun of Americans in an airport shortly after 9/11 by making plane and explosion noises. He also cheated on his wife with a teammate's baby mamma and lost his captaincy of the English national team. There were also racism incidents.
If you want a team that is on the rise, are totally class, have a great coach, and even an American to root for, Everton is the easy choice.
Easy.

Regardless if they won the league or not
You would be a bandwagon Liverpool fan. They have had a season being the best team in Europe with in the last decade.

C'mon man... I love when people say 'Pool fans are bandwagon because they're such a good team. Yes, they have a history, but for many young fans almost all of it is before we were born (outside of 2005 obviously)

meh they had 2 or 3 "down" years
Liverpool was still going to Europe and won the league cup two years ago.

OK, so let me edit my Suarez statement...
I have noticed he is a complete diva. I HATE people like that, but when he is pushing his effort, he is fun as hell to watch. I think my favorite player I have watched is on Arsenal. The white guy with Norman Reedus/Steve Nash type hair. I also enjoy watching Gerrard on Liverpool and HATE Skrtel.
I am heavily considering Everton just because they have seemed like nothing but class. The only reason Chelsea is honestly in the convo is because my buddy is a fan and I have watched a shite ton of their games this year. I despise bandwagon teams in every sport, so I am in a self-hate state when I watch Chelsea even though I like them.
It sucks because I see more of Chelsea being available to watch than Everton.

you're reaching again Homey...
you act like we've been steamrolling through England and Europe the past decade...
Even the team that won in 2005 was a major underdog..
I wonder how many new United fans you got this year playing like you have... yeah, thats been us the past few years..
Like I said, I don't care if someone jumps on the LFC bandwagon (or any team) this year, just stick with the team through the good and bad.. don't pick a new team when times are bad..

All EPL games are online.

Agreed, if you're going to jump on during a championship run, you better stick around when we're finishing mid-table too (hopefully there won't be many of those years in the near future)

im just going to leave it like this best comparison to American sports.
The Steelers had their run of dominance in the 70's like Liverpool. During the 80's and 90's were always still there but couldn't win it all. Yet their fan bases got bigger and bigger nation and world wide.
Liverpool crush the 70' and early 80's but always at the top after. Always playing in Europe always on tv worldwide always growing their fan base.
Steelers win the Super Bowl 2005, Liverpool wins Europe 2005.

That's fine and an accurate comparison, but I don't think either sets are bandwagon fans... To me bandwagon fans are the ones who pick a team because they are "sexy" or winning or both.
My example would be the huge influx of fans seen by the Miami Heat after they signed Lebron and Co.
