You'll be telling me you support Mancs United next. You would be best served supporting the Devil Rays (unless they get eliminated because of their money problems). 
B. Why would you support a team just because they are good farters. And what makes the Aussies so good at it? I suppose you will claim to be world champions at that now! It must be all that bush tucker that you eat in Sydney.
C. You are following the wrong blokes. Soriano is a converted short stop who is defensively questionable at second base. Two run homers are nice but how about some base hits when the chips are down.
Rivera lacks discipline at the plate, he's only walked 9 or 10 times in nearly 200 at-bats.
Derek Jeter - just three words 'Right Shoulder Weakness!'
The man you should be following is Chuckles Knoblauch who's nickname is 'Knobbie'. Need I say more?
D. Okay - this is an acceptable reason for supporting them.
E. No cricket - don't you know that Afghanistan are touring Pakistan at the moment? (I kid you not!). England's tour will go ahead with a few players bottling out.
It's football season now!!! Only one Arsenal player for the Australia v France game. Let me see, Vieira, Pires, Henry, Wiltord - I know, they can take Gilles Grimandi! 
Go Diamondbacks!! Go Schilling!!

ROFLOLWP - you're on form today Donut - don't tell me you are supporting the Diamondbacks as well
I think Curtis and Randy can take em this year
.
Our choice eh, well we'll take Vieira and Pires and Wiltord and Henry - you've upset us now
.
Your kidding - Rivera is the closing pitcher - how could he have amassed 200 at bats - especially when he is playing in the league where the pitcher doesn't bat.
I'm a "Knobbie" fan too, but he is only batting about 250 this year, whereas Jeter is in the 300's.
And the Aussie Cricket side have the potential to be good fighters Yorick, if they ever come across some side that stands up and seriously opposes them
