where are you from? where do you have ties? people (such as imran
) can support teams from cities where they have no connection, but to really be a fan, you need some sort of connection.

It's trying to ape off of the Spanish practice of bestowing "Real" to all squads blessed by the King.“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

Which team should I support?
Second: call it football
Third: don't call it soccer
Don't support Chelsea or Arsenal, go for a minor team, like say, Liverpool.
Hi Reds!!
Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?

Relatives and obscure connections are always good. I support Liverpool thanks to a bug in FIFA 97 where the commentator screamed out "McManaman!" every game---even when Liverpool wasn't playing. Clearly it was an omen from the gods."You say that it is your custom to burn widows. Very well. We also have a custom: when men burn a woman alive, we tie a rope around their necks and we hang them. Build your funeral pyre; beside it, my carpenters will build a gallows. You may follow your custom. And then we will follow ours."--General Sir Charles James NapierComment
