Why do people riot in the states after their NBA or NFL teams win? It is not soccer, it is young men between the ages of 15-25 who are liquored up like mad, who find sport a good excuse to behave badly.

Its not just that they are young and often drunk, but also that they are being manipulated by ringleaders who are usually members of racist/fascist organisations.

We have seen this sort of football violence in England and it is usually inspired by hard bitten football hooligans who are members of the NF and C18.

I was just going to say, at least in Russia they riot when their team loses, unlike in this country.
