I have a question for the American sports fans, is supporting your local team a thing in the US? Or do people not really give a shit? Like here it's frowned upon to support a club miles away from where you live/are from.

Do you lot support your local teams?

I re-read my post and quickly edited it, playing PS so not fully focused on this atm.

Now imagine if Metal Machine Music was talked about on the news every night, was a huge chunk of what you had to pay for to get basic cable, was cheered about in every other bar you went to and was the cornerstone of small talk for about 50% of people you encountered.

That would actually be kind of hilarious for a while. At least talking/hearing about it is different and better than actually hearing the album itself

Oh no, you'd hear it constantly. It would be playing in most bars most of the time, they'd play clips of it on the news, people would have friends over just to listen to it on a regular basis and listening to it would even figure prominently into some holidays.

Eh the comparison started to fall apart there, I don't think sports are as invasive into your everyday life as hearing MMM nearly everywhere one goes would be, I'd probably hang myself within a week
