Now, I don't have any data to support my comment referring to soccer as the most popular sport on earth, but I think it is pretty obvious.

i guess i'm just asking a rhetorical question. . .but how is listing teams in the UEFA champions league proof that soccer is the most popular sport in the world? for example, if i listed the playoff match-ups from the baseball playoffs this year, how would that be any different than what you said? the reasoning is exactly the same. . .after all, mexico, dominican republic, cuba, japan, and south korea all have baseball leagues as well.

i'm not arguing whether soccer is the most popular sport, but how what you said is proof that it is.

Football/soccer, is in fact the most popular sport in the world. Anyone who doesn't know that must be a fucking moron. :D

Smackie, you disapoint me….how could you? A good United fan will always favour the opponent to Arseholes, even if it's DC United or some other god-awful abortion of a team. ;)

Seriously….just look at their domestic record….they can't beat the top teams of England, let alone Europe….look at this season alone, scraped a draw with Chelski, got stuffed by United, got stuffed by Liverpool, managed to squeeze a draw with Bolton. Henryetta is invisible when playing a team of any quality. He's the most overrated player in Europe if you ask me.

42. . .this isn't worth it anymore.

I know Manc, but don't confuse betting on and rooting for - it's Bayern F'ing Munich for Christ's sake! Just the thought of playing an English team makes them quiver. Their record against English squads is abysmal and I just don't see them beating the Arseholes. It's not about Arsenal as much as it's about Munich.

As for Barca however, I think they will be the most creative team Chelski has played against and will cause them fits. This is a damn good Barca team.

i continue to be amazed at how you criticize baseball for being boring, yet you are a soccer fan.

as for why i deleted my post, barcelona still hasn't answered my first question, and i don't feel like keeping this thing going.
