There are times when one needs to choose a side. Sometimes it’s so very hard that one can’t do it. My friend got married recently and together with his wife and they stay in his father’s house. One day He came home to find his wife shouting with his mother. Both wanted to give their side of the story, and they both wanted him to then say who is right and who is wrong.
It would be very disrespectful to say my mom is wrong, so He thought. But again, did I bring this woman here to take up arms against her with my mother? What a situation. Now one of our writers comes and supports two teams that will be up against each other this coming weekend. Wow, Khosi la Lesokolara.
Is it really possible to support two teams in the same league? I asked my friend. Then He replies: “I was born of a Kaizer Chiefs womb. My mom loves Chiefs. I think I was born a Chiefs fan since I dont even remember when I started following the team. It’s impossible for me to support any other team. This is football, you can’t, and it’s either Chiefs or Nothing."
Then it hit home. How can a person really support two teams? Can you serve the slave and the master? Well I am still battling to find the answer. But again my late uncle's blood was black and white, but still he had space to support all the other teams except Chiefs. Then it hits me, it might be possible. I mean my uncle would whole heartedly support any team that played Chiefs on the day, but still, I know that that was only because of the hatred He had for Chiefs, and more so Chiefs supporters.
Having said all this, I honestly think you can’t support two teams on the same league. I know one can love two or more woman at the same time (Not too sure if a woman can love two men at a time), but I really want to challenge Tsokotlane to explain this Khosi la Lesokolara thing. Its sounds nice though, but is it practical though?
