Its more of a comedy column from my point of view. His views are so off on all sports, its kind of humorous. Then I leave nasty little comments. The best thing is that he called fans (ie us) "soccer snobs" which is pretty ironic considering the article he was writing at the time is well, flat out snobbery.

I really don't understand how anyone doesn't think a great pass or great run or anything culminating in a shot on goal isn't exciting? Americans just don't get the 'personal connection' European fans have with their clubs. American sports are so impersonal and predominantly about the money. You very scarcely see a kid who grows up in Chicago making it for the Bears, Bulls, or White Sox. Even college sports having gotten that way. That guy is an f’n moron.

Its like a love poem, its little segments even stand alone--beautiful--and yeah, everyone's tired of me reading bits to them...I'm off to order John Lancaster's.
