When a thread is posted on those sports it is to report the outcome of a game or playoff series. Not an editorial on why we should like the game and watch it and contain complaints about us not liking the sport.
And when a golf thread is posted, you can be assured, there will be plenty of "golf is gay" and "golf is boring" posts.
So let me see . . . folks don't like the game, so they shouldn't have to read editorials that they should?
Incidentally, this "editorial" is a response to a piece that Rich Lowry (I think) did in NR (a long time ago) calling soccer a socialist sport.
And finally, this piece was rather benign. I'm amused by the "outrage" that it created.
