Do I need a reason?



Guess not, I just wondered why an American would like the England football team first and her own countries football team second?

Thought maybe you were born in England or had English roots...... not grey one's [smile]https://c.tfster.com/images/smilies/ahhhhh.gif">

Mostly, growing up the USA wasn't really a powerhouse in the game. So while I liked them and wanted them to win, I chose teams wouldn't lose right away. So I picked England and West Germany. England, probably because I knew the players better and W. Germany because I am German.

I don't really understand the logic of 10 yr old Floydie.

Now, I usually like/dislike teams because of certain players. I'm more of a player watcher instead of a particular team supporter.

I hope you aren't insinuating that I like the way players look rather than liking them for the talent they bring to the field.

I'm not a fan of spectator sports but I've enjoyed reading this thread so a big thanks to you, Jihadista, for starting it and to all contributors. I especially like the international name: futball.
