For all intensive purposes, it's about the humor.

Avila, where this attack happened, is pretty much our most exclusive community. A-Rod, Jeter, Michael Jordan, they all had homes there. That doesn't mean the place is staid, or safe, or normal. I dated a beverage cart girl at the country club in Avila for awhile, until she left me for Jeter (I think). She told some…

C'mon Barry. I think we can all agree that when it comes to toughness, hockey players like Clint Malarchuk are definitely a cut above the rest. Guys like Kevin Ware really don't have a leg to stand on here.

Oh, great. So now this turncoat gets to play for Azerbaijan too?

Billy Haisley: [doesn't fuck up an article]

This is exactly the kind of thing American soccer fans should care about. FUCK MLS. Great content bro!

It felt like the article was written in a vacuum that ignored the fact that the MLS was looking more like it was going to fold about a decade ago then it was going to expand. Its clearly no top league but its hardly the pit of incompetent soccer that this article makes it out to be.

According to Wilkinson from PTFC the cap is getting raised significantly next year. From around $2.8M(I think) this year to a little over $4M next year.

For a guy who spent 50% this article bitching at eurosnobs you spend 100% of the article acting like one.

Same owners: AEG has the Galaxy and one-half of Houston.

I don't watch any soccer, foreign or domestic, so let me make sure I have the two sides of this piece right: MLS sucks because it's not European enough, and MLS fans suck because they're too European?

Yeah those MLSers with no ball control skills:

Best live sporting experience of my life was going to a Philadelphia Union game against the Galaxy. Beckham takes a corner kick near The River End and is getting endless amounts of grief. Kick goes up, ball gets headed into goal. Beckham turns to the Sons of Ben and mouths a "OH, POOR BABY" at them. Everyone…

This is, by far, the most stupid article I have read in a while on deadspin. What a fucking joke. Any idiot can write this. Not every league in the world is top flight. And the level of play in MLS has increased since the early days.

Dude bashes MLS because it's not Arsenalesque or Messi-esque, then asks why Michael Bradley didn't decide to play for the footballing paradise of... Sunderland.

But, being serious, the premise of this article, to me at least, is flawed. And yes, I realize the hook is firmly in my cheek, but still.

The best part of the new Kinja is exposing me to all these shows and references I never would have seen in any other forum before.

As soon as we learn to spell

I bet you eat at Applebee's too you sick fuck.

As soon as they unveiled the new uniforms, the team received requests from over 40 players to change their number to 80085.
