You guys, all these people are old, and old people don't like soccer. They didn't grow up with it and see it as a sport stealing athletes away from the usual sports. Who cares what WIP thinks. They're a bunch of douches. I have called in to the show hosted by the Flyers's play-by-play guy to comment on the World Cup, and he likes soccer a lot. And no callers directed grief my way after my call either, which surprised me.
All of those people are old and old people don't like soccer? I'm 33. A few people on that list are around my age and I like soccer and grew up with it. I have a 22 month old son and his most popular phrase at the moment is "daddy watch soccer fox channel gol tee wee." (BTW, I'll have to post a video clip of him doing a fox soccer channel dance) Let's not speak in generalities so broad they can't be explained properly or defended.
There is a lot of WC soccer talk by the mid-day guys right now. They are admitting their lack of understanding of the game, but showing interest in understanding it a bit better.
Anyone know how I can email the midday guys? I can't call in because I'm at work but I could when I'm at the WC.
