So I take it Sweets, you have not heard of Root Beer (something you can drink in America, if you like the stuff, it's rather strong tasting, slightly chemical, like going to the dentist's) and isn't rooting for someone the same as cheering for them? *Checks dictionary* Oh dear, my culture is definitely too American...

root (3rd meaning)
