Would you rather bandwagon a successful big team you will never see playing live, or genuinely support a small team which you can go see playing live?

I'm American, we don't have teams with virtually no chance of ever being successful

what is the "depth" of league ladder in US in various sports? do you have something like 7th baseball league or so?
>>75452800
Those teams are minor leagues of the big teams. So the Niggerville Dindus are actually part of the Yankees organization. There are independent smaller leagues, but nobody really cares about them

>minor leagues of the big teams
what does that mean? we have it divided geographically, there is only one 1st league and 2nd league but then we have 4x 3rd leagues (west, central, east, capital city), 7x 4th leagues, 14x 5th leagues + lower town leagues and that's all

Irrelevant because I would never pay to watch a football match

I care about the St. Paul Saints.

but it is all tree structure, so teams can ascend/descend between leagues if they win/lose the league table
but at some point team which moves one league up isn't able to compete at all and just gets raped
there were cases of teams refusing to ladder up because it was better for them to rule their own level than getting btfo on higher level

No you're the one scalping the tickets
I pay £260 a year to see a conference south team lose every other week

why are your sports so socialist?
The way it works here, at least in my city is we have two teams, I support the team from my hometown and a big Serie A team, in my case Inter

For the sake of parity.

Minor league baseball is sort of a farm league, major league teams can send their players to any of their affiliated farm teams and bring affiliated minor league players up to the majors
