well not all of them apply to me since I'm european, but let me see, I've got:
That rivalry thing. Superclasico? Really? That's a name reserved for stuff like Boca - River.
The Jersey
The Champions League final, and I agree with Mike, anyone who would say otherwise is, for lack of better words, a fucking idiot.
And the statistics.
"When tasked with buying a replica shirt, you choose the hard-working holding midfielder’s number" - This is why I have Papa Bouba Diop's jersey and not Defoe's or Crouch's...
glad this article was written by one Brian Louie and not one Jeremy St. Louis....
Only a 4.
Cliches are great, just like stereotypes.
Love the gossip rags.
If given the opportunity, would not have a second thought about attending a CL final over a game in Miami with the MLS All-Stars.
2, 5, 6, 9
1,2,5,9
Also, CNBC is discussing Barclays like it's going out of style/business. Whenever they say "Barclays" I make like Pavlov's dog and yell, "suck it." Is that a cliche?
Also, even though I only scored a 4, I consider myself a soccer snob. I only have so much time in the day and I would rather watch/read top level soccer than second tier soccer.
Also a 4: Landycakes, Superclasico, Finland and the jersey (although Roberto Di Matteo was never really a holding midfielder). But I feel like a soccer snob, if only because I routinely ignore the MLS.
