I can think of nothing that could be more polarizing towards potential fans, than to puff out the hypothetical franchise chest and claim the title of "America's Team". Certainly this proclamation ranks as one of the most smugly arrogant, egotistical boasts in the history of North American sport. While some football fans are attracted to this sort of attitude, others are nauseated by the very thought.
Excuse me, I'm getting a little quesy just thinking about it...
