Well, I do understand about wanting players from your own community; it's great to hear that players want to play for your team. I think many Astros fans like Lance Berkman more because he says he never wants to play outside Texas.
So I get that; I guess I just don't identify the nation-state with a rooting interest. Heck, I don't really get into national medal counts at the Olympics either. Maybe I'm odd, or maybe this is more of an American perspective (Canadians are more patriotic than Americans, as evidenced by national anthem singing anyway, probably because they want to emphasize their distinctiveness vis-a-vis the United States).
