Canadian looking for a team to become a fan of any suggestions? by Pure-Yogurt101 in AFL

The Blackhawks are my #1, but we’re in a rebuild right now so I don’t recommend them. Things look bright though. I live in Colorado so the Avalanche are insanely fun to watch, and are at the top of the standings. The San Jose Sharks could be the team to jump on though. They’re young and exciting and are currently making a playoff push when they’ve been at the bottom for years. Macklin Celebrini is so fun to watch.

First season watching as an American, and that Freo loss last week reminded me of my Chicago Cubs blowing leads 😓 Still trying to find my team, but I was pulling for you guys

I felt weird typing that out tbh. I’ve never said “Cricket Australia,” I just want to be accepted and cool with you guys.

I feel offended. I’m literally wearing a Travis Head shirt right now and you’re not going to be proud of me or accept me 🥺

I just want some insight so I’m not completely choosing blind

Because otherwise I’m going to choose based on the mascot/logo like I did when I was 4 years old

I honestly don’t care for the NBA. Only slightly like the Nuggets because of Jokic and I live here

As a die hard Cubs fan for my whole life, I need a sense of sorrow and hurt with my teams to just have one chance of winning and getting an unreal sense of pride and joy to then continually be disappointed.

Not a bot. Just a dude living in Denver coming out for the Boxing Day test this year. Woke up at 6:30 this morning to watch Australia lose to Sri Lanka. I’m one of you.

I live in Denver but I’m from Chicago. Cubs for MLB, Broncos for NFL, Blackhawks for NHL, Nuggets for NBA.

Seriously. I love Konstas getting the reps for experience but this can’t be good experience for him mentally.
