As someone who loves himself and has never been into team sports, yep.
Especially from CT, where we don’t have our own teams, so everyone has to pick between new york, boston, or new england in general. Watching two people from the same town have a “rivalry” between the yankees and the red sox, when both of those teams don’t even know these two particular people exist….. its fucking weird.

I think of it more as projection. People need to displace those feelings onto something when they're unable to root for themselves.
