Easts, Wests, Parra and the Sharks are the coolest teams.
Stay away from the Broncos, Dragons, Manly and Penrith.

I will be watching the NRL full-time, starting with the upcoming season.

The problem is, I need a team to support. Another problem, I'm from the U.S, and I'm not sure if any NRL teams have fanbases here.

Out of curiosity, what NRL teams are popular with fans in the U.S (or outside of Australia)

Does it have to be an NRL team? Toronto have a team in the English set up and will be top flight soon enough.
Otherwise, there's no need to rush into a decision. Watch a few games and have a look at which team appeals to you.

The Brisbane Broncos is the only answer.
- Honest hard working club
- Brisbane RL capital of the world
- Brisbane area produces the best players and then they’re taken away by greedy Sydney clubs.
- Broncos abide by the salary cap unlike many Sydney clubs clubs Manly, Bulldogs Eels etc.
- in the best state QLD. Which if you’re picking a state side QLD is a no brainer.

I like how you said all that with a straight face

Remember kids, this is why you shouldn't live somewhere where it is hot all year round
Too much heat and your brains cook

Im going to watch a sport fulltime, based on a whim, but no nothing about it.

Seems like complete bollocks to me.

5 years ago I couldn't speak Australian.

Now I are one.

What exactly is cool about them?

 

[OzDragon]

Seeing as you’re a Leafs fan & thus enjoy mediocrity, come follow the Dragons!

 

[Coparugby]

Canberra Raiders - the only team not on the coast and the only team to play in freezing conditions during winter.

They're not Melbourne?

The must be a good game to watch.

If you don't know...

LOL, heritage and history alright, St George Illawarra have been in the competition for 20yrs.

The Las Vegas knights have about as much history as them.

That is addressed in the post you were quoting

 

[parrawentyfan]

I tend to agree that your team will pick you.
