Didn't read the article? The football team was hypothetical. I don't give two shits about your background if it's clear you're not going to get along with the team.

Yeah sure, if someone does not fit in with the team and it's a rather social job, fair enough.

But using something arbitrary like favouring some sports team, even though this served as an example, this doesn't seem to be either a significant nor sufficient decision basis.
