Packers for the Super Bowl. They look fitter and better than last year. Rare that you ever get a team repeating though.

It's not even that, people are just ignorant across the world. Believe me, many Americans are vicious about 'soccer' and how boring it is. They seem to have grudging respect for Rugby though. Anyone for a game of Kabaddi?

This is a very good point. Despite the Yankees having by far the biggest budget in MLB, they have only won the World Series once in the last 10 years. A good farm system, good trades and the right mix of players are worth more than just throwing silly money at it. Texas Rangers tried to buy...

The champions are very far from average. What it does do is keep every team in the league with a chance of winning, which is surely what it's supposed to be about? The franchise/draft system is unworkable in the UK and Europe, but it works very well in the US. I envy their system, tbh.

Who's he, then?

Brilliant sport, though it's not for the feeble minded. As somebody else alluded to, it's chess on grass - a simple game that has so many different variations. The QB has to know the entire offensive playbook, which is hundreds of plays. The defensive plan is equally baffling, but once you get...

Barry Fry was in goal, so make of that what you will.

Lets get EVERY FAN to stand up for what we believe in. And let's make a few quid while we're at it. Forgive my cynicism, I'd love to see the whole stadium in them, but it'd probably be about as effective as the Man Utd 'Yellow and Gold till the Club is sold' campaign.

Dear Fans, Sit down, shut up and eat your burger or you'll cause another Hillsborough. Sincerely Duh Management.

I was living in LA. I got the 'Are you alright' email about 50 times. I survived the tower collapse on the basis I was 3600 miles away.

Without being too dramatic about it, football fans in this country are still treated like second class citizens. Maybe if these lads with the banner had been looting the Tesco outside, they'd have been ok. /tabloid I didn't see what happened with this, so I can't really comment. But the bad...

He just looked so calm on the ball, rarely gives the ball away and has the confidence to spread the play. Make no mistake, this kid is on the way to greatness. I just hope we can play a major part in his development.

He might not always produce as a footballer, but he's got a wee bit of talent. And clearly a good guy that cares about his family. Which is all that matters.

Mcdonald will need time. He looked off the pace, plus RO'D did more in about 60 seconds of coming on than he managed all game. Not complaining though, the whole team fought well in the second half. Props to Dunn too, I was worried about him but he looked calm and did everything well.

If Jesus makes him play like that, I'm off for Midnight Mass.

That is all. P.S How long will we keep Bigi? He's just pure class. I liked his celebration/prayer at the end.

Not sure about that, Wallace. Though Andy Thorn may just be Buddha.

Neither are world class operators, though I tend to think Cleverley will be too smart for Bellew. Bellew can hit, but he's shocking defensively.

Wegerle was great, like Le Tissier but good looking. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TOUaDs_55E4

I liked Ducros, he was just too little. A breeze of wind would knock him off the ball.
