But the question is
Who gives a fuck? Is he any worse than the ongoing uses of "your mum", "Cunt", "Prick", etc found in almost every thread? Why do so many people get so bent out of shape? If they don't like him, they can put him on ignore and never have to see him????

(MichaelS wasn't picked again, Fri 22 Jan 2010, 12:09, Reply)

he was a football player (soccer to you)
and became a well-known pundit. Crucially though, he has a very large chin (and a beard in that pic) which enables the use of his visage to indicate that you suspect that someone is lying. From the english playground, referencing a chin or beard signifies that you doubt the veracity of a statement.

from urban dictionary:
14. Chin

An expression of disbelief.

Usually accompanied by rubbing the chin, in imitation of large-chinned british sports personality Jimmy Hill.
A: "I've just spend the night playing drunken strip poker with Scarlett Johanson, Halle Berry and Sheikh Abu Hamza in the playboy mansion"

B: "Mmmmm... Chin. How would Abu Hamza play poker anyway, he's got no hands!"

Ex-footballer, and football commentator
with a famously big and pointy chin. For some reason that has always escaped me, this has something to do with lies.

EDIT: Vipros' explanation is better.

Also crucially
It is Jimmy Hill who is responsible for current football player's grossly inflated salaries, as he campaigned tirelessly against the 'bus money and a sandwich' wages that were prevalent in the game.

The big chinned cunt.

Do the footbal players in the UK and Europe get the same
40-50 million dollar contracts as the best baseball or basket ball players do here?

Also, has the cost of going to a game become ridiculously high in the UK. (It can cost $300-$500 or more to get a really good seat at a Boston Redsox game. Seats in the nosebleed part of the upper bleachers can cost $50 if can actually get one).
(MichaelS wasn't picked again, Fri 22 Jan 2010, 12:23, Reply)

not quite that high, for most
but I think some have reached those heights. in real money though, not dollars.

I have no idea obout the price of a match - I've never been to one.
But elite players can easily fetch transfer prices in the tens of millions.

Not bad for not having been to school since the age of 12.
( Enzyme is powered by sunlight, Fri 22 Jan 2010, 12:24, Reply)

Probably not that high
But anything up to £100,000 a week has been known to be paid for a 'top' player who then breaks something not long after signing for a club, but continues to get paid it anyway for sitting in the treatment room over the next six months.
