I used to favour Liverpool. Being danish, I have been subject to the danish TV-channels match selection and they tend to focus on the major clubs like Liverpool, ManU, Chelski and Arsenal, leaving us fans with little to choose from.
Having been a dedicated fan of danish side Lyngby since 1979, I chose the club whose fans seemed the most dedicated, and few can beat the Kop in all its glory.
Except a few years ago when an english friend of mine took me to Upton Park to watch West Ham v. Tottenham.
Hearing the terraces sing "Forever blowing bubbles" won me over in just about 2 seconds. I get goosebumps just thinking about it.
So GOIRONS (Losing Teves to the dark side wasn't part of the plan, though)
It's a largely Euro board... if they meant NFL, they'd a said 'merkan football.
But THAT said, I'll take the Pack in the NFC, and am Silver and Black from way back in the AFC.
And to totally and completely threadjack:
Baseball - Chicago White Sox
Hockey - Toronto Maple Leafs (although if the Preds move to Hamilton, my loyalties will quickly change)
Basketball - I've always had this affinity for Golden State - ever since the Hardaway/Mullin days.
My football team would have to be:
For the country I live in - Toronto FC
For the town I was born - Aston Villa
Forgot about TO FC. Just as well they play in red and white (Canada's colours) and not blue and white (Toronto Maple Laffs colours) as I would have nothing to do with them.
