It’s a sports cliche that is almost as ubiquitous as the inane post game question that precedes it: “we have the best fans in the league.” Pick your sport - from football, to baseball, to basketball - and you can find a clip of a sweaty star player toweling themselves off and heaping praise on their fans.
