I think that unless you're some soulless bandwagon idiot you don't pick teams to root for as an adult - you root for the teams you've always rooted for.
I couldn't even bring myself to root for the Rams after they won a Super Bowl in St. Louis. I did try. Unless I threw it away at some point, I've got a Warner jersey in a box in the basement that I think I wore once.
I have become a half-assed Bears fan over the decades that I've lived up here, since they're in a different conference than the Chiefs and only play them once every four years. But it's a mild interest at best.
