"I like them because of _____" is a common response, and it's kind of annoying.
If you like a player, say that. Don't say you like the team if you don't like their history.
For example, I like Azpilicueta (basque defender) on Chelsea, but don't like or know Chelsea well in the slightest way.
I don't know why I am posting this, but I just feel that liking a player is not a legitimate reason to declare yourself a supporter of the team he plays on, especially if you "like" the team based on a single athlete. |
