Why don't Australians?

Americans worship parity in sports. Most of us are incapable of rooting for a team unless it's a winner.
>>67874494
I see
>>67874448
Culture I guess, it a becoming more popular as we get more immigrants
>>67874494
Yup. Most people I know don't even root for their hometown team. They just pick a random team in each sport that they have no connection to whatsoever.
>>67874207
>corporate ownership
not true
>>67874494
Yea. We don't have the same culture around sports that Euros do. Teams are franchises, not really something bound to the community. Some fans of soccer teams in leagues like the NASL are trying to recreate an atmosphere that is more present in European leagues. We have yet to see if this will last long or become widespread.
>nba has the most enforced parity
>two teams have won half the championships since the inception of the league
makes sense to be honest
Because even Americans have managed to Fuck up the beautiful game by having the most corporate bastardization possible as a "league"
>single entity
>competitive
>implying they aren't all literally the same team with different colors and location
>>67874207
>same team wins every year
>better support your cucksquad
We are not "Toronto Maple Leafs" fans, either.

The internal structure of the US leagues are communist, but the way they work as a whole is capitalist as fuck, and everything is done so that they generate profit, which they do.
Meanwhile, mostEuropean clubs are massively endebted and can't generate a fucking profit, and even those that generate profits are still massively endebted for a good part of them, but get away with it because they're politically protected, as people would start to riot if they were to disapear.

And before you try to say
>le no one cares about the A-League
The A-League has higher ratings in Australia than the EPL or UCL or anything and all other European leagues are virtually completely irrelevant.
