This is a link post SoccerSucks.net - An American with an irrational hatred of football
I can't believe he spent so much time making this.

Choice quotes:

"Yes, Elton John - I mean Sir Elton John - is a soccer fan."

"Soccer and fascism are co-dependent blights on humanity."

"Note that soccer fields are extremely large. This indicates that real estate is dirt-cheap where soccer is played. In more advanced countries, a phenomenon known as indoor soccer has arrived. While much less boring to watch or participate in than the traditional crap, it also indicates that property is more precious due to economic development of that culture."

"The dreadfully slow pace of soccer appeals to the dimwitted. One observes data indicating that protein consumption per capita is highest in North America. Protein consumption is necessary for the healthy development of young minds. Soccer barely registers in terms of popularity in North America. For further proof, let us note that over 42% of Nobel Laureates are from North America."

This is a normal post I like..
'Soccer apologists say the reason it is not popular in the US is because the US is not any good at that activity. The US soccer team won the World Cup in 1991 and 1999. Better find another reason.'

and

'The "World" Cup is not the a World's Cup, but a competition among 32 countries, disproportionately allotted to European countries.'

Rich coming from a guy extolling the virtues of Baseball with it's "World Series"

This is a normal post Not that I'm sticking up for the guy
but I believe the US womens' team won world cups in those years. Big fucking deal I agree.

And (I found this out recently) that "world series" refers to an old sponsor (the world newspaper) and not in the 'champions of the world' sense.

But yeah, the guy is a mis-informed bigot, boarderline racist and a twat. But I think he's just after a reaction from the football fans who are actually stupid enough to rise to the bait.
