SLB, SLB, SLB, SLB, glorioso, SLBêeeé, glorioso, SLB!!! *from heart and using from full lung*
I couldn't resist. ;D I am not from any fan club or "claque" but I this season was a good one. I enjoy following the matches when there is decent and exciting football matches being played and that happened with Benfica, Sporting de Braga and Porto this season. Unfortunately Sporting (Sporting de Braga is a different team of Sporting and was a surprise) is in pretty bad state...
Note: glorioso means glorious and SLB is Sport Lisboa e Benfica.
Now there is the world cup. Let's see how Cristiano Ronaldo gets back its title of best player of the world. ^^ (or not)
Btw, since there is no other portuguese around here (there a good probability of portuguese descent being of Benfica, though) but what teams and sports, you watch games? In europe football is the sport of masses. In US, I know most things from movies and culture.

Hey you're Portuguese? Cool!
I have some portuguese ancestry in my bloodline, but dont ask me when.
However i follow the EPL and watch Manchester United mainly, since my grandma used to follow them. Too bad chelsea won last night :S.
Cristiano Ronaldo is a superstar and he is the only reason Real Madrid are even in the title race. Had he not been injured for 2 months, things may have been different.
I look forward to watching portugal in the world cup :).

Portugal team is very exciting to watch but generally not suited for weak hearts. ::)
Oh well Portuguese spread around the world as early as the XVI or XVII century. Can be hard to know. :P
And when I can I watch Spanish and English league. English football is fast.
Although I want to follow a bit close the Italian for a while to see the kind of playing. Brazilian and Argentine internal league although rarely spoken, can be interesting.
But I am not that addicted to football. Like I use say, I just enjoy to watch a good play time to time. And I watch many other sports, collective or not.

I kinda wish Canada had more development done in Soccer/Football. It is getting popular more and more and a year ago there was a match up between a mexican team and the Montreal team, but it still is far from matching up the game caliber that you got in Europe, Africa and Australia.
