    I don't think I limited my comments about soccer to a specific country...
    Er, right.

    Don't you have any nutters watching sport and getting all tribal over there? I gather spotters have fights on the roof of ovals at the IRL.

    Surely those Nascar cowboys get a bit excited?

      Not really. We're very civilized.

        Except for Raiders' fans.

          They still exist? I thought the second Art Shell era would've taken care of the remnants...

            While NASCAR fans definitely care about their sport and rally behind their driver, I've never heard of the type of competitive fandom & hooliganism soccer seems to incite. Or even football & baseball.

              Has anyone who says we lack physical sports actually seen a game of Rugby League or these days Union.

              Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind- bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space.

                Yea, particularly that last bit is imperative.

                  So has no-one heard about spotters fighting in the IRL? Maybe I shouldn't be surprised, seeing as only about 500 people in the USA follow the series except for the race at the Brickyard, which almost everybody wants to go to.
