June 17th, 2014




Santino has a nicely subversive defense of U.S. soccer that’s worth reading.

The quadrennial push always reminds of the piece I wrote back in 2002 about “The Ritual Attack of the Soccer Scolds.” I think it holds up reasonably well.

    What do soccer and “Twilight” have in common?

    They both last 90 minutes.
    Nobody scores.
    And when it’s over millions of people tell you you don’t know what you missed.
