Question...
Well, a two part question that deserves more background information sometime soon.
If you did not root for your current teams or players, would you still follow the sport? If yes, who would you root for instead?
Yes, no one really wants to think about this and you're probably afraid that you have to revoke your fandom because of it.
However, you shouldn't worry.
If you consider yourself a sports fan, there's a 90% chance (unscientifically determined, so what?) that you keep a close eye one a second team.
It's not cheating. Really.
Perception is reality, the saying goes. Modern players can never transcend time, athletes only care about the money and the fan is never wrong. Yet, all you need to do is dig a little deeper to find the truth. As a freelance sportswriter, my job is to give the audience a story around what just happened. As a consumer, I expect that sports will always provide more than I bargained for. As a fan, my hopes are to be enlightened by more than points. Welcome to the mind of a sports scribe.
