if you don't grow up having a personal connection to a team it can be hard to foster any sort of support for them. people feel an attraction to their city's professional sports teams because it allows them to share an identity native to their city's history. teams represent cities in more ways than one, and people readily identify with their team's personality, i.e. chicago sports = hardworking, new york city sports = talented but often disappointing, et cetera.
