    - When you get excited to see 'real' commercials on it that don't involve some sort of internet product.

    - When you begin watching Cricket

    - When you find yourself being impressed with the new graphics of the EPL broadcasts.

    - When you recognize refs of foreign leagues who aren't freakishly bald.

    - When you happen to find Mark Rogindino's personal email address on the Web and think about emailing him just to tell him he sucks.

    Woman on couch: "It... could save your marriage."

    Man on couch: (aside to audience) "Yeah. If she doesn't find out you're boinking your secretary, two co-workers, three neighborhood wives and divorcees, your daughter's cheerleading coach, her best friend, and whatever follows you out of the bar on friday afternoons."

    When you wear a med-alert braclet that says. "Needs dose of soccer daily".

    When you can buy Real Estate with no money down and make mad cash.

    When you know that announcer Allen Hopkins is black.

    (I had this sort of thing happen to me. I'll talk to someone on the phone and they'll make an assumption about me based on my voice, then when I show up in person, they do a quick double take.)

    When your not quite 2 year old son starts saying "Oooh, Oooh" when you turn on the TV because FSW is programmed as the start up channel.

    Then he raises both hands in the air and says "Goooaaalll."

    I wouldn't say I was shocked. I just think it's kind of interesting that we make assumptions about people we have never seen based on thier voices.


    -Oh and naother sign that you've been watching too much FSW-

    When you're ready to become an Army of one.

    When you know that Fox Sports Populi is a terrible pun on "vox populi" - Voice of the people

    - I bet you Shawn Wheelock came up with that one.

    Flashman, were you that cranky British guy who complained about the MLS Wrap answering machine cutting off too soon? ;)

    When you record FSW matches only to replay over and over the advertisements for "Dream Team" (oh, what did I record?).
