This may step a little close, but not meant to cause offence. I like the Steelers and the Penguin's as a favourite set of teams in the NFL and NHL. But I am not a fan as I was not born in Pittsburgh, nor am I likely to see them live. Now while I am not Liverpool born, I am an Evertonian through a distant family link, although could be a tenuous one. However, I know the history of my club, have been to Goodson, and have cried when we escaped relegation on the last game of the season, have had tears of joy when we won the FA Cup in 95. Etc.
Now I only know about American sports through TV, as such I could not call myself a true fan. I have never visited said country, if I did I would head for Charlotte Speedway for defo. Anyway, I do take umbridge with so called fans of Everton who put a shirt on just because of global TV, global commercial links etc. I am wrong in this viewpoint?
