Just curious if there are any others out there on Lemmy! Where are you based and what team do you support?
I live in the UK but I’m a Saints fan - started following the league in 2020 as a lockdown hobby and it stuck!

Yeah I’m a Bears fan, UK too, I started following the game around 2011.
BEAR DOWN! <3
Any thoughts on why the bears have such a big UK fanbase? It’s definitely bigger than you would expect compared to teams from bigger cities.
Maybe it’s because Da '85 Bears team carries such weight along the legendary NFL teams? Probably the same as Marino’s Dolphins in the 90s, Brady’s Pats, or Montana’s 49ers?
Chicago is the third largest city in the USA, after NYC and LA. Makes sense that they have some reach.
