(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.

And I think he came up with the points system for wins, losses and draws.

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.
