Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

But why is the English Premier League the best league in sports?

    I kind of understand baseball being low, because the manager is the least important coach in any sports league, but I'm surpsied the NFL is so low.

    Most NFL coaches get two or three years.

    I knew that was coming. I just "hate" the Spurs

    I grew up hating the Spurs. I really hated them when they would beat the Sonics in the playoffs. Bruce Bowen can fuck off. They have grown on me though. You gotta respect Duncan and Ginobili is one of the most entertaining basketball players of all time. A lot of people hate him, but his game is brb, jo worthy. Not as much anymore because he's really old, but still.

    Same here, I liked the Mr Robinson's neighborhood Spurs with Sean Elliot but hated the Duncan/Parker/Ginobili teams for years. Over the last four or five years or so I've finally grown to respect them, and now even like them. Leonard has helped that for me, I actually enjoy watching him play which is new for a Spur. Oh and Popovich is the fucking man.

    Re: Soccer

    It's not bad to watch, but RD is right. It's usually the same few teams who always contend, unless some wealthy terrorist or Indian buys a team. Crystal (meth) Palace or Swan City or whatever they're called aren't going to get 80 points and contend. BPL is actually a little better than the Spanish and German leagues in that regard. The Spanish league winner is always either Barcelona or Fake Madrid. There are a couple of other good teams, and then the bottom 15 or so teams are way below it seems. It'd be like if Bammer and Oklahoma were in a 20 teams league with Ole Miss, K State, and then the Sun Belt.

    I think the Froggy league was actually pretty equal until an oil sheik bought PSG and bought all these huge superstars.
