Use google, it fucking works wonders.

But then he'd deprive himself the joy of publicly stating "fuck this country, I'm out" like I think he's trying to say.

Or maybe he just really digs maple syrup. In which case: props.

In retrospect, my opinion was kind of unrelated to the question.

USA doesn't accept soccer because it's seen as European and Latino, and america can't support what isn't "American".

But I probably think this because (see map from shinigami420 on the first page) we tend to naturally generalize you all to a bunch of redneck texans.

As a guy who doesn't follow sports regularly, but watches a scattered amount of everything i'll say this: Both American Football and Soccer are superior to the dumb, thuggish rugby and the arduous cricket we play here in Australia.

With regards to american sports, baseball seems like a sexed-up version of cricket, but that doesn't say much because cricket is incredibly boring. Basketball has points scored way too often to really get tension in it regularly, so makes it boring to watch for me as well.

When it comes down to soccer vs. american football (the two sports I watch the most), I think talent-wise soccer leads (way more technical skills for every single player, rather than just a select few of the players on the field). American football is way more tactically interesting.

Also, I think the low scores in soccer are a two-edged sword. They mean most games are CRAZY slow, but the high importance to each goal makes it many times more satisfying when your team does score. It's also this sort of crazy tension that probably leads to the more violent fan culture. Or just the english people.

I like lying back and chillaxing on my sofa with the 360.

My thoughts exactly. Sitting up straight is for suckers.

I saw them at Splendour In The Grass a year ago. I had an unfair loathing of them due to radio bashing out "Little Lion Man" whenever possible back then, but live they were really energetic and sounded pretty darn good.

Of course they where just before the Pixies, so forgive me if my memory of the set was a little distracted.

If she is a gold digger, she did a bad job. Sure Idra might make enough to live comfortably, but he will never be rolling in the cash.

Hmmm, prestige digger? Maybe? Eh.

This may be obvious to a real PC gamer, but why is the disc version 5 GB bigger?
