It says our city name on their jerseys. Virtually nobody on the team is from that city, and likely had never been there until they joined the team. You don't know them, and they don't know you, and they really aren't even concerned with you because they have no idea who you are. We defend these people when they do wrong, we argue they are the best at their position just because they happen to be on our team at the time. We emotionally invest in people we will likely never meet.
Good point.
JOHN ROBERTS: From time to time in the years to come, I hope you will be treated unfairly so that you will come to know the value of justice... I wish you bad luck, again, from time to time so that you will be conscious of the role of chance in life and understand that your success is not completely deserved and that the failure of others is not completely deserved either.
