I was gonna say the Steelers and the Saints, until I actually read the thread and realized it was about real football (more or less known in America as soccer), not American football...

Really, it makes a whole lot more sense to call soccer "football" since it involves a lot more use of the feet than American football...

My dad told me years ago that they call American football "football" because the ball's a foot long...but I'm not sure I believe that.

Can't think of a name of that sort in mine.
We have butchers and others - job-related; but strangling people was not considered as a profession, just a pastime.
I'll reconsider traveling to the East.

As for teams, well, I'd go along every club Cruijff played for, even though he's left the party a couple weeks ago.

My supporting is linked to a player - years ago I would have supported Lazio because of Nedved; as soon as he would leave the pitch, I'd be hoping for the rest of the team (Mancini ahead of the others) break a leg.

Nancy, Liverpool, Bordeaux, Arsenal and Tottenham (this year), Villa... I had hopes for Aalkmar, I wanted to have an opportunity to watch another Dutch side but, well...

None. Sports suck.

in the late 1800's american football was running the ball and kicking and punting the ball. no forward passes. Only using one's FEET.

and as of now, I do too.

But my usual teams: Glasgow Celtics, and Liverpool. Madrid over Barcelona. Anyone over Chelsea, Rangers, or Roma.

In some ways that's the more interesting question. I certainly get almost as much enjoyment watching Spurs or Chelsea lose than I do from seeing West Ham win. Which currently means that I rarely get much pleasure at all from watching football.
