And before anyone says it, no that is not a political statement. Frankly, I just can't think of anyone more stupid and prominent than him. He's is the most famous one around the world and that's all you can say about him from a neutral perspective. |

Especially the other one His post really did sound like Netherfreak was looking down on Americans for liking a different sport as a sign of inferior capacity of thought on their part. Never mind the fact that USA is the most diverse nation with the largest range of professional sports available at home. (Don't forget the large majority of those said sports were also invented by... Americans). |

If I say football, I mean European football, not American!  |
