This shit annoys me. You have a perfectly viable team in your neck of the woods, but you withhold the joy of live sports with your son, just because your favorite team isn't in town. I'm lucky that my dad didn't give a shit about any teams and took me to games because he placed bets on them.

I was born in Chicago and was a pretty hardcore fan of the teams there. I managed to set aside enough money to go to a game or two every months for 5 straight years or so. When I left that shit hole and moved to Arizona I switched over for the same reason: I wanted to keep going to games. I'm probably never gonna move again, but if I do I will switch teams again. Switching teams so you can go to games and be invested regularly >>>>>> sticking with one team and not being able to enjoy a game unless that city is in town.

padres/chargers til I die unfortunately

You bandwagons will never know the wonderful feels of having your hometown team make a playoff run. The whole city's caught up in it for weeks. When the chargers made the playoffs a couple years back and beat the bengals it's all anyone would talk about. There were pep rally type events throughout the city, the radio stations couldn't stop talking about them. Everyone you met seemed to be in a good mood. The community came together over our boys in yellow/blue.

You wagon-faggots will never know what being a fan can really be. You may get to celebrate more than real fans, but your celebration is f5ing on /sp/ instead of partying in the streets. I feel no jealousy

I actually don't care about nin home town waggoning per se. It's the guy who was a Lakers fan ten years ago and a Warriors fan now with a break in between as a Heat fan that pisses me off.

For instance I have a friend who has been a Broncos fan since 98 when we were kids because of >muh Elway but he stuck with them and rooted throughout the years. So now when they won this year he got shit for being on the bandwagon but for me it's all the same because he didn't jump ship in 06 or something and come back. That's fine.

Mr. Anon, it says here that you support a club called 'the Arsenal'. Now, I went to inform on this club, and an assitant-manger told me that they 'bottle it' quite often and that their lead guy is a 'specialist in failure'.

Why should we hire you, instead of hiring the last candidate, who supported 'the Spurs', a club that, I've told, has a player named Harry Kane, who is apparently the greatest player of the beautiful game since Pele?

Being from Belfast, I support Glentoran FC. My family (great grandparents/grandparents/Parents) are Rangers supporters from Glasgow. Hence my support for the 'Gers. I have no real connection to any English team so watch it as a neutral.

Saying that a decent number of footballers have filtered through to Man United from Northern Ireland, always lovely to see.

My birthplace doesn't have an NFL team, none of the cities I've ever lived in (a total of 7 over almost 21 years) had an NFL team, and none of them were within 175 miles of a team, so I just went with my dad's team.
