LOL WGAF why you are a fan of a certain team? It isn't like dude is king of all existence and determines what you can and cannot like. I like the University of Memphis teams, even though I never went there. My dad went there and a lot of my highschool friends go there, but I have to keep quiet whenever they play. I guess I have been wrong my whole life.

EDIT: Maybe you should ask him if this logic applies in other areas. For example, I like sushi. I am not Japanese, have never been to Japan, and probably will never go to Japan. Should I give it up and stick to cheeseburgers and fried chicken?
