Soccer: Nuts

On The Ball is Round:

As a youthful baseball nut, I find the European obsession with soccer totally irrational. If I couldn’t catch ESPN snatches of American baseball and football on German TV, I’d go temporarily insane during their “football” playoffs. Down with Arnold’s stiff upper limbs and British imperial detritus.
