Why does a team"have" to win?

I like baseball. I'll go to an occasional game, watch games, etc. If the Ms win, fine. If not, I'll criticize. But I do like the game itself, and seeing it played. Actually, I enjoy playing it even more.

I don't like basketball so really don't care if there is a team here or not.

I like the Sounders, glad they win, but the culture they have going is what makes it exciting. It will be interesting to see what happens if they are less successful on the pitch.
