“Shep Smith likes succer?”

Maybe not soccer, but definitely the first act of Chorus Line.

thought I was watching the first act of “A Chorus Line

The difference is chorus girls don't keel over, writhe and whimper and wet themselves for no apparent reason.

Yes, because baseball players are the epitome of sporting physicality. Steroid sodden sport whose greatest player is a fatso.

Baseball is for people too poor to afford sleeping pills. Give me soccer anyday over that slow, dull, 4hr snoozefest. A game based on English rounders for little girls.

Soccer is at least 90m of continuous movement, baseball is SO slow and dull. And not even American.

Do baseball players eveb warm up?.

Yes, how silly of soccer players to warm up and stretch their bodies like professional athletes.

People that don’t “get” Coulter, don’t “get” hyperbole either.

Football, baseball are not American. You DO realise that?.

Although Americans are the only people who can watch two sports which take 3-4 hrs to complete, and then with no sense of irony complain that soccer is slow and dull.

Watching a bunch of guys in shorts kicking a ball up and down a field is meaningful how?

Yeah, it's not nearly as meaningful as watching a bunch of gorillas in armor beating the snot out of each other for five seconds in between beer commercials.

Oh, the lack of irony charge tonight, scotsman! You’re in rare form! Sitting by your fireside with your single malt scotch and your itchy kilt correcting us low-life Americans again. I feel like I’m lost in the comments section of The London Times.

But are there not MORE IMPORTANT things to be attacked, Ann?

***
There is nothing more important to Coulter than getting attention for her comments.

Meaningful but often frustrating. Such as when both teams jam together and all start spinning in a slow circle, until the quarterback breaks loose and runs the wrong way. Or at night when your parents shout through the door "Will you shut that thing off!?"

I'm a huge Ann fan. Basically everything I've ever heard or read her say I not only agreed with, but agreed enthusiastically and with great admiration for her intelligence, wit and mastery of expression.

Except when she talks about Romney, Romneycare, and oh, did I mention Romney? When she does that, I say to myself, I say, "Ann, you ignorant slut."

And then when she changes subjects, I go on applauding her.

It's called real life, folks. For all of you who simmer with rage because she hasn't turned into a perfect ball of light, here's a tissue - grow up. Because the fact is that Ann Coulter is, for 95% of everything she does, one of the strongest and most effective conservative writers America has ever had. She's the moral successor to Thomas Paine - and I'm a big Paine fan (no pun intended). Even after I read that Paine had bad breath and horrible manners, I still praise his writings.

Amazing, isn't it?

...I don’t complain that it is slow and dull...I complain that it artificially depresses scoring so as to make it appear competitive...

...since so few goals are scored, I would submit that shots on goal should figure into the final score...and then you’d have a decent game...
