Think of it like our NCAA basketball tournament. Yes, your little piss-ant school like Davidson, George Mason, or Western Kentucky (in b4 RED DRANK) has no real chance to ever be the champion. But, isn't it fun when the DO have that miracle season and start scaring the shit out of the Kansases, UCLAs, and North Carolinas of the world? Yeah, then they often go right back into mediocrity in their little podunk conference (league). But, you will always remember with great fondness those few times they DID do something that put "your" team on the map. On the other hand, you could root for some school like Kentucky where a year with 28-3 record and making it to the "Elite Eight" isn't good enough, thus making you a typical, thoughtless Amerifag sports fan.
I think OP's point would be better rephrased this way...pick a team because there's something about them -- tradition, players, location, colors, name -- that you LIKE, not just because they win all of the time.
tl;dr -- Amerifags, stop bandwagoning!
