The WORLD is crazed about stars and it doesn't just apply to sports - all these reality talen shows are a great example of this
I meant that even if they don't have stars people love their teams. Star is good, but if you do not have a star at that time period you still cheer for your team with just as much passion. You do not need a star to follow/cheer your team.
And since I follow basketball I pretty well know what I am saying. It is like a cult in NBA, "fans" are talking about clashes of the stars and not so much about teams.. It is different in other countries. Of course they like stars as well, but they are more centered on the team than on the stars.
