    Watching Ted Lasso made me wish I had a sportsball community to be part of.

    I decided in 2015 to be a fan of the (then terrible, but historically awesome) McLaren F1 team. I really liked the McLaren P1 hypercar (not that I will ever be able to afford or even drive one), and I thought that was a good enough reason to pick a team to follow.

    I have thoroughly loved watching their rise from dismal in 2015 to winning the Constructor’s Championship in 2024!

    Find a sport that interests you, there are LOTS of them. And then find any reason to pick a team. It’s fun, even if absolutely meaningless in the grand scheme of things.

    (I really liked F1 because the technical side is fascinating, and I only needed to learn the names of twenty athletes. 😅)
