Manchester City plays home to Everton Saturday. Last time they played was October 2. I think Donald Trump was alive on October 2, that's how long ago October 2 is.
The international breaks. They're just killing me. And to know that there's another one in November, another in December. I don't remember it being as bad in past years. Maybe it was and I just don't remember. But that one guy on ESPNFC actually echoed the sentiments here, I don't remember reading something similar in the past. But maybe I forgot that too. (I'm old.)
All those other junk competitions: the Capital One Cup, the Europa League. It wreaks havoc with scheduling: City played at Swansea twice in four days, two different competitions.
There is no rhythm to the soccer season(s). Like college tackle football in America-every Saturday. The NFL-every Sunday. Baseball-every other day. You don't go on fucking BREAK for a week once the season starts. In the EPL, opening weekend, rah-rah-rah, yippee, break. ONE weekend of matches and they're off on international break. What? This in October has been two weeks.
It's okay in Soccer World, I guess. I don't hear many people bitching about it. 'Course, I don't read about soccer when they're on international break.
It's not just FIFA. FIFA has nothing to do with the Cap One Cup. That's domestic. "Win the treble." Oh, fuck the treble.
I don't think the Brits mind. That I would know! If the Brits were bitching about the league AND the FA Cup AND the Capital One Cup (I know it's not named that anymore, I'm being defiant.), AND the international breaks, I would know that. No, I think they get their small pasty-skinned dicks hard for ENG-MALT. Drink a pint o' malt for Merry Ol'. Drink a pint o' malt for any damn thing.
Maybe it's really boring in England. In Europe. In the world. Every place but America. All they have is soccer. If they didn't have soccer what would they do? Drink a pint o' malt. Yeah, but they do that for everything, that doesn't count. Maybe they'd start a war or something. Withdraw from Europe. Europe withdraws from the European continent to join the Asian continent. Both apply for membership in the Big XII.
If America had only one sport and it played only nine months a year, what do you think would happen? "You say you want a revolution, well, you know, we all want to change the world." No baby, there WOULD be a revolution if America had only one sport, it only played nine months and when it DID play it went on frigging international BREAKS every month. Some international things would get broken, alright.
But in America, okay right now? College football is halfway through its season. The FUCKING BASEBALL PLAYOFFS ARE JUST GETTING GOING. HOCKEY! started last night. The National Concussion League is well into its season. The NBA is right around the corner AND THERE'S A FUCKING PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION GOING ON!
High-stimulus people, Americans.
This soccer thing, I'm too high-stimulus for this constant coitus interruptus. It is annoying me to the extent that I'm losing interest.
