Why would anyone spend that much time typing that out just to level someone?

What is the thing on the lapels of the broadcasters on Sky Sports News. I've also seen it on some EPL coaches. Is it the English version of the American flag?

just watched liverpool-blackburn.

1) brad friedel is still unbelievable.
2) crouchigol is still awesome. no matter what rafa says.
3) dirk kuyt is useless. he's the dutch darius vassell. he's a target man who neither scores nor sets anyone else up. i mean, sure, he works hard, but that doesn't put the ball in the net. how he wasn't subbed out of that match is beyond me.

The posts are a good level and to those that can see they are very funny. Youve been on this forum long enough to know that many posters put time and effort in to long leveling/funny posts.

Also the fact that it is a level and people are reacting in exactly the way one wants people to react to a leveling post acts a powerful motivator.

Proof it is a level:

1. Why wasn't there an overtime and then a shootout.
2. I see that Manchester was wearing black. When did that start. Isn't their team color Red and dayglo yellow (I have seen them wear both of these jerseys in the past).

Believe me, I don't want to step on any toes. It just seems that there are a lot of "new" soccer fans involved with this thread, and I think it would be a good idea to let them know that there is more to the game than just the final score.

[/ QUOTE ]

For me I found the posts very funny, especially the commentary on BIG FOOT and Rooney.

Also TSC your level detecting skills are obviously piss poor because you fell for a blatantly obvious level of mine only a few posts ago.

The reason some are unsure about the level, is because it sounds so much like an Amercan "soccer" fan. Hard to tell the difference.

That is what makes it so definitely a level. The majority of posters in this thread are yanks, how many sound like that?
It is certainly a caricature of how a yank football noob might sound, how many yank fans would actually go on about BIG FOOT (LOL).
