5. Time watching soccer is never "wasted" :-)

Fell asleep watching GolTV last night and woke up to a Spanish version of a handheld blender infomercial. Now that was a waste of time, because I lay there and watched that thing. And I don't even speak Spanish :P

6. MLS, Champions League, occasionally the Premiership

Chelsea looked very impressive, but Bordeaux also played awful. I don't know which one mattered more.

14. No, but during my last trip to Europe, Spring 2006, I was...

15. Sheffield Wednesday for me!

I was up at Hillsborough last week watching the Owls take on Ipswich.

And while I'm on the subject, if Sheffield United want to sue anyone, shouldn't they be sueing themselves for choking against Wigan on the last day of the 06/07 season, not West Ham?

16. Nothing more exciting than those endless 1-0 snoozers.

I'll take the real football, regardless of what the rest of the world thinks.

18. "real" football?

Would that be the version where the foot never touches the ball?
