I dunno, I just don't see any point in being, like, a Pirates fan right now.

That's part of the fun though. It makes the good seasons so much more enjoyable.

bingo. I've been a white sox fan since I've been old enough to follow sports. The Sox winning the series last year was that extra special due to the fact that I've seen us be fairly under .500(good ole 89) and the fact that I grew up on the north side(which to those that don't live near chicago is cubs territory).
What Jared said about feeling a connection to the team is very true. Do I follow the White Sox, Bulls, and Bears due to geography, yea of course, but I don't know any other way. Of course it does make it weird for me following Manchester United because since I've started following soccer they haven't exactly been in relegation trouble, though I am sure that I would support them if that happened because I believe that when you pick a team you stay with that team
