Well, at least the Bucs get honorable mention. I can honestly say I've never seen Manchester United (http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/ft/20040304/bs_ft/1077690881043) play a single game but I have gone to a couple of Yankees games and watched the Bucs on tv.

Man U are inescapable. Everywhere you go in the world you will see people wearing Man U shirts and kicking around Man U footballs. They are especially popular in Asia.

That ain't a sport. It's an amusement for adolescent schoolgirls.

Give it a couple of years and Real Madrid will take the top spot.

Nobody in the US knows what "Man U" is

Good for you Nuke!
Man U suck (literally) and the players are moronic nancy boys.

Tronski! I have a "plain" Man U shirt of my own somewhere - given to me around 1991. I wanted one with the number 7 on it like yours!
Although I was an avid Man U supporter in the glory days of the early 1990s, I did begin to feel that the Sunday afternoon fixture on ITV (John Motson) might as well be renamed to "The Man U Show", so often were they featured.
I really enjoyed the performances by Eric "the King" Cantona. Not a pace man, just a great tactical and strategic player. And he was French!

I firmly agree with Dowd.
When I was a kid a discovering football (asside from deciding at an early age that kicking an inflated pigskin around a grass field until it rolls into a goal at either end was a bloody stupid way to spend 90 minutes) I just couldn't understand why most of my mates would support Manchester......I mean Manchester was 200 miles from where I grew up and we had two local teams......one of which was in the 1st division at the time (isn't anymore, they suck these days - Oxford Utd).
So if Oxford were playing Manchester.......a large proportion of supporters from Oxford would be supporting Manchester. That just seems totally alien to me, people supporting a team merely because they're seeing a lot of success. I mean what happened to loyalty?

I do, I do!
Guy I work with is more of a "Cheltsey" fan though. Did I spell that right? Thats how he says it.

It's Chelsea. And they are even worse. Their first team is populated almost exclusively by foreign studmuffins, as opposed to English ones.
-
Chelsea!
Like young Ms Clinton!
