Soccer is pushed on us because lib’ruls love it. It is the embodiment of lib’rulism. Soccer is nothing more than a pan-Euro, socialist attempt to subvert traditional American sporting values....there I said it. I note that the rise in popularity of soccer in America roughly correlates to the decline of America in cultural and economic greatness. To quote Dan Jenkins, how in hell do you bet a sport that can end in a tie? It is the anti-thesis of Patton’s “Americans LOVE a winner”...

The same way you do in NFL football ... point spread.

You know what’s socialist....spreading revenues evenly across all NFL clubs no matter how bad a team sucks.

In the EPL, if you suck, you get relegated. Good teams get promoted....and the difference between being in the Premier League and the Championship (2nd Division) is huge.

Probably the richest sporting event in the world is actually the playoffs to determine which teams get promoted to The Premier League, in terms of impact to a team’s bottom line.
