After watching Ted Lasso I want to give this whole soccer AHEM I mean football thing a shot, and since America are the irrelevant jobbers in this sport I cant just pick my local team like I can with NFL, NBA, MLB and NHL.

if you want to follow the same team for a while, stick to one of the long-term top-flight teams. relegation isn't fun. also, don't listen to post #2. spurs will break your heart every time.

My friend's a Liverpool fan and I'm a Boston fan, so good choice.

Why not cheer on one of the actual American soccer teams first? I mean you know Boston has a soccer team right?

Because thatd be like following Guams basketball teams instead of the NBA.

I've always wondered this. I've looked it up and most people either bandwagon or pick the team that most fits their personal vibe or the vibe of their favorite team.

Id just rather watch Premier League because its considered to be the top league in the world with the best players, same reason I watch NBA and not the local Philippines basketball league.

Honestly if I didnt have the arbitrary reason of Liverpool having the same owner as my Boston Red Sox, I probably wouldve just picked whoever has the coolest logo and colors, and Liverpool is my favorite in that regard too.

Plus im a Beatles fan.

Are there North American players in the PL? I picked Burnley because the New Zealander Chris Wood plays for them. Though my dad is a Crystal Palace supporter.
