I must admit I’ve been torn between rooting for Chelsea or United, I was more for Chelsea last year. But it is a great rivalry, and I would love to see them meet again for the FA Cup or the Champions League title. The EPL is pretty much a foregone conclusion.

Could happen. They're both amazing sides, guess I just have a preference for the one that has some actual Englishmen on the team. :-) I enjoy the skill and speed of EPL soccer. The Mexican game bores me to tears, except Super Classico. I've seen half a dozen international matches and enjoyed them.

About a decade ago, I watched Mexico beat Brazil in the Gold Cup competition at the Coliseum in L.A. US took third the same day. Rain pouring down, 60 thousand soaked fans, and everybody having a great time. Took me several days to get dried out and warm through again.

Best fun ever was seeing Trinidad and Tobago play. They travel with their own steel drum corps. Well, that, and Brazil's memorable Samba girls.
