- tabloids
- hat trick
- replicas
- finland (anyone who says the mls game is a fucking idiot, im sorry. people goto the superbowl when its not their team, because its one of the biggest sporting events in the world, eat my asshole soccer examiner)
- statistics (sorry but im not a snob for talking about gerrard's olympiacos and west ham performances. against, toss mine salad brian louie)
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.
@Andrew - well, shit. Call me Pavlov.
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.
