I don’t agree it’s avodah zarah. It may be silly but many a rabbanim have nostaligcally remembered how much they liked and rooted for the yankees. What went overboard is how frum businesses learned to capitalize on it by providing special kosher spreads. I don’t quite understand what drives people to this, especially when the superbowl doesn’t always involve the team you are loyal to, but the people who engage in such parties are probably the ones who go to ball games of other types or who just want a fun meal. Lighten up.
