How many team owners are there?
My wife will tell you I can get wrapped up in sports as much as anybody, and so can she when one of our local teams is doing very well as the Minnesota Twins are currently (that's what's on our TV every night), but I always say they when I'm talking about a team, not we. I'm not on a team, I don't own a team, and I don't work for a team, so we just doesn't apply.
It doesn't bother me. It's just a comical type of annoying how people can get so wrapped up in their favorite team that they feel like they are part of it & say "we". It's funny. Sports is fun, and the word fan has its roots in the word fanatic.
