I enjoy most of your shows but it will always be second fiddle in the grand scheme of sports. It is what it is. Glad they feel the show is worthy enough to be put on another channel. I will continue to listen. We all have our likes and dislikes. Most Americans love the hard hitting violence. Fine. Watch a aussie football game one time. No pads, continious play. IMO people in the US need to take a trip abroad to appreciate a different point of view of things. Football not your cup of tea, fine but it is the number one sport in the world. If someone denies soccer not being the most popular sport in the world, I'll have a laugh.
The fact that soccer is the worlds most followed sport is a big reason I cringe when I hear people mention the rest of the world when it comes to North American racing. Just because the the majority of the world likes it does not mean that we should have to.
