Indeed, you make a good point. Two of my favorite sports are golf and cycling. They are hard for those who don't, or haven't participate d to watch.Recently I got caught up watching a darts tournament final round. I thought it was great because I used to toss a bit myself.

I think soccer has a lot going for it because it is so universal. I think I was turned off by the way American wussies got a hold of it and turned it into a pansy game with boys and girls playing together, sometimes even with no keeping of the score.

And what I like about the EPL, is, if you suck, you’re gone....no revenue sharing BS, like the NFL. I love relegation/promotion.

In fact the richest game in all of sport is the playoff to determine which team gets promoted to the EPL to following season, in terms of revenues, it’s huge.
