I figured I sound annoying lately, trey. If my posts bother you lately, feel free to block me anytime. No hard feelings. First of all, Mets haven't been good until this year. Remember, they aren't the Yankees. It's all good now.

You got that right. I should have researched first on my own.

I'm sorry man. I was a tad bit harsh in that post. I'm going to leave you with this piece that Bill Simmons wrote in '06 on how to choose an EPL team if you're American. Obviously a lot has changed since then (namely that Man City is good now and Liverpool isn't) but it still has a lot of valuable information that can help you reach your decision.

No worries. Like I said no hard feelings. Sports will always drive us crazy no matter what. Thanks for the links by the way. I will check it out when I get home tonight. I have no clue that Bill Simmons watches EPL. He doesn't look like one.

Only club I claim is Barcelona

Everything else is just supporting my favorite players

same. my only real squad is bayern but support juve and psg along with other teams because of players I follow heavily

 

[rolaholic]

Been following MU since I started watching footy when I was a lot younger. I used to also root for Real because they used to legit have just about all my favs on their squads

. Also followed the Milan clubs for a bit when Serie A was king for the same reason but through and through I've always been an Red Devils fan first.

cats really out here supporting like 5 teams in 5 diff leagues though?
got dudes in here talkin bout: " i support chelsea, psg, real madrid, bayern and juve"
idk, seems a little OD to me.

I'm an Arsenal man now.

One and only.

Zlatan still my boy tho

tbh this has always bothered me too

like bruh, ain't no way you can actually spread your fandom that thin and give your loyalties to each club justice following that many teams at once

The only team I'm a "true fan" of is Porto.

However I do tend to root for a team in each league. Real and Man City, would I call myself a hardcore fan of theirs? No, but when it comes to la liga or the bpl I'm rooting for those teams

 

[Armada]

So I just read that UEFA is gonna charge City because sections of fans in the stadium booed during the CL anthem...

UEFA on some Roger Goodell **** right now.

 

[miketysonthekiller]

changing teams like changing socks fam

gotta rock with the freshest ones

 

[northoaklandfc]

Tbh if new fans cared more about learning the game than they did picking the right club to "support" everyone would win.

I was like this too but United was my fav team in the EPL between the years of 05-09 during the Ronnie, Anderson, Nani, and Queiroz era - also Fergie was always an idol of mine. But after Ronnie left and Portuguese/Porto connection seceded - I stopped caring and just enjoyed the league overall.

I knew I wasn't a true United fan tho, even if I did root for them during that time - because I would root for Chelsea as a second team because of the overwhelming Porto connection (PRIME level of confusion) - but if it was United Vs Chelsea, I'd pick United - no doubt.

But now man I don't give a **** - Barca, Real, Bayern, EPL- I just love footy and Porto is in the blood.

Day 1 Fly Emirates fan right here so hop off.

 

[flyeed]

You don't choose the team b, it chooses you. My fanhood lies solely with Real even though I sometimes wish Barca were the team that chose me. I like that it's a team first unselfish philosophy, and kind of the rebels to the establishment that the royal whites are representative of. But there isn't **** I can do about it, because I don't just pick. It's not a decision you make.

 

[noskey]

You don't choose the team b, it chooses you.

That, or you become a Chelsea fan.

 

[flyeed]

And you don't have to root for a team or force yourself to pick one. Maybe just wait another couple of seasons, and if you find yourself rooting more strongly for a certain team then that's your team. And if you don't then **** it just be a fan of the game and you can still enjoy.

OOOHHH OOOOOOOOOHHHH ZIIIING!

Literally every other team on the planet

any of you guys play fifa 16 on ps4? would love to play against some of the dudes in this thread

 

[8pm at msg]

I picked Chelsea for 2 reasons:

A) Drogba became my favorite player
B) Pops is an Arsenal fan so I wanted to argue with him

 

[northoaklandfc]

Watching this Gent vs Valencia replay on ESPN Deportes and just realized that the Gent logo is an American Indian. Like it's a mirror image of the ******** logo just in blue and white. Wtf.

They need to charge arsenal also then. A few weeks back the crowd was booing and then they played the anthem to drown out the boos.

In order a messi jersey in August as a birthday gift. World soccer shop still hasn't shipped that shirt.
Drogba is the reason I support Chelsea. The coverage for EPL 10+ years ago made it hard to really watch the teams.

Whose better ?

Vardy or Kane

So the Chinese president, Xi Jinping, is apparently a United fan but the Manchester city counselor who organized his trip to the city is a Citeh fan so he ended up getting a tour of the Emptihad instead of OT 

At least it created this awesome selfie

I realized years ago playing fifa 13 that I completely suck at video games

Belgian Pro League

There's a few gems playing there right now.

Club Brugge vs RSC Anderlecht this weekend
