This week "The Stranger" had its own sports column, for the first time. "Green Sports." The gag was that some dude was writing 2000 words on the Sounders while baked off his ass. I can see how that would help.
I'm not opposed to soccer, it's just sort of like getting into minor-league baseball, to me: I don't know who the players are, I have no team loyalty. And while Major League Baseball moves similarly slowly, I just can't get excited just because the ball comes within thirty feet of the goal. I shall have to attend a game.
Because, y'know, I attended a WNBA game one time, and while the arena tried way too hard (a timeout is called! let's have ten-year-olds shoot free throws for movie tickets!), the game itself was pretty entertaining. Yes, it does take skill to hit a 3-pointer. You sexist bastard.
