In American sports, someone (or some team) always wins and someone always loses. It’s all about the thrill of competition and the sacrifice and effort required to win. Socialist Europe’s sport is the idiotic (and extremely boring) game of soccer, where the fans rave of a match that ends 0-0. For decades soccer enthusiasts have tried to force our children to adopt and play that game, but in the end most American kids opt for the intense competition of football, baseball and basketball.

Soccer, the only sport where Venus de Milo could become a superstar.
