You know what, I've invested a lot of time, energy, and emotion into the Calgary Flames. Frankly they're a part of me, and if they are a part of me, then I'm in some what a part of them.

Can you imagine a team without any fans? If no one shows up or cheers, the team ceases to be. That makes us, the fans, part of the team, a very vital part of the team. Ergo if we're part of the team, then we (fans) can use the term "we" to refer to the team.
