Still finding a definite team to follow - one of the appeals of baseball for me is each team has something about them to like - whether a player, manager or stadium, so its hard chosing. Must admit I'm leaning towards the Giants though Me and the missus are planning a trip to the US to catch some games, hopefully this year. Anyways, see you around the boards!

Had they not left NY all those years ago they would have been my team too. welcome to the forum and keep enjoying your baseball.

Be interesting to know who the best supported team is on here, never thought about it before, but there's a lot of mets fans.
