| Also a lot of games on ESPN 2. A few on ESPN. There are a couple games on ABC, but for the next few weeks it will be mostly ESPN Classic and ESPN 2.

| Because he can dribble and shoot? Not like every sports star in America is super athletic. Peyton Manning and Tom Brady aren't exactly super athletic.

They need arm strength, accuracy and quick decision making. There's not a similar position in soccer. Not the same for Rooney. He play in a spot where it would ssem he needs blazing speed to beat the other great athletes. | |

But it was during the WC time frame and there were foreigners in town wearing their Soccer crap and telling all of us dumb Americans how we should like soccer (kinda like some of you here). The only difference is I don't have to look at your messed up teeth like I did those Euro trash punks when they spouted the "good" of the hobby known as soccer.
