Not what you want on your first day back at work. Ditto for people who come to work and cough their guts up all day, sniff and sneeze and are generally just a pain in the arse to be around.
Also people who follow an overseas sports team (i.e. Liverpool, Chicago Bulls) but couldn't name you a player in Australia's equivalent league. (A-League, NBL etc)

I follow the English Football Leagues and I very very very secondly have an interest in the A-League, my dad is English grew up in a house 50m from my teams ground, I had no choice. I do support Melbourne Victory but don't have an passion or history with the club
I have also been to more New York Knicks games than 36ers game as I don't find the much lower standard of the Nbl interesting

Different people having a different affinity to teams at different levels doesn't make them any less of a fan, but the thrust of the original posts was where the top level is their only interest. For me, perhaps this attitude is a hangover from growing up in the '80's with the SANFL ,and not being able to drop it overnight like many were able to, whereas now we're a good generation on who have only grown up with top-flight, professional sports.

I guess premiers don't buy things for less $1000, seems legit.
