I hear what you're saying, but you're in Perth, Australia and I'm in Cardiff, Wales... we both have time-zone issues, but we both have the same internet to research this stuff. What it looks like you're trying to say is you're a casual viewer and enjoy watching the big names, rather than being an actual supporter of those teams. Nothing wrong with that! I casually watch a number of sports.
Looks like the guys were only messing with you anyway.
