Easy.

School in Germany in the 90´s. Everybody and his brother was a Cowboys fan. I, being the hateful ass that I am, looked who their biggest rival / hate / whatever was and became a Skins fan.

Then I lost sight of the NFL for a couple of years due to other interests. When starting to play the game myself in 2005 (at the grandfatherage of 26) I got back to sport, the NFL and the Redskins.

And since I started coaching (football-cripple) I watched our game from a different view, and enjoyed even the bad ones - I could always learn.

Only saw one NFL game live though - 2008 Saints vs Chargers in London. Actually made me like the Saints quite a bit, too.
