Why do we like spectating and commentating on sporting events?

While all sports are great, I especially like football.

Football teams represent regions, cities, and sometimes even national pride, making it easy for us as fans to feel a strong personal connection to our teams.  Supporting a team gives us a sense of identity, belonging, and unity with other fans.  This shared identity can be very powerful.  It’s amazing how so many people across the nation have embraced the University of Colorado Buffaloes.
