Three billion people per week watch English Premier League soccer telecasts.
If I had read that on ESPN---or anywhere else--I would not have believed it. I mean, dude, there are 7 billion peoplez on the whole goddamned rock; 42% of the entire earth watch the EPL every week?! Without concussions? I say, I would not have believed it.
But I read that in the New York Times, the TIMES and it was written in typical gray, understated, diffident, by-the-by, en passant, When-can-I-get-out-of-the-toy-department-and-back-to-the-adults'-table--"Maureen, what's the latest on that Penn scandal?"--Times manner.
So I believes it, says I.
