My wife is a baseball fan. (football and a bit of other sports too)
So this wouldn't work for me.
When we started getting serious, we discussed teams we like. And found a great compromise!
Now I get to root for
Red Sox
Patriots
Bruins
Celtics
AND when they're not playing the above..
Orioles
Redskins/W/Commanders...
I forget what hockey team, neither of us have watched much in years.
And the Bullets/Wizards.
So I got like 3 1/2 new "favorite teams"
