Haha. I've never been to either. Whiz on a cheesesteak...ew. Those two places seem to draw mostly tourists.
Well someone's got to eat all the dead stuff otherwise we'd end up like Birmingham (UK), and you don't want that.
the nii lampty podcast is by far the best in terms of content, really good discussions and analysis, just not as often as i’d like (probably averages once a month).
It’s daft to have a second team. Just enjoy the moments when football brings moments to remember. Harborough Town is one team in that category.
Harry, that’s not cricket.
More of a joking suggestion, because also more US fans should explore more of the entire pyramid system as it's an entirely odd concept compared to like the NFL.
Actually, this blew my mind when I first discovered it. The entire idea of promotion and relegation. I was trying to imagine the New York Yankees having a bad season and being demoted from MLB to Triple A and then down the minor leagues. Was very intriguing. Then, just when I thought I had the entire thing figured out, I found out about Champions league, cup ties, Europa.More of a joking suggestion, because also more US fans should explore more of the entire pyramid system as it's an entirely odd concept compared to like the NFL.
Also, upon reflection, our new friend could easily have gone down a Wrexham or Sunderland rabbit hole. Shudders.
. I’ve researched all the clubs until you get to non league. I know next to nothing about them. I narrowed it down to Coventry City, Crewe Alexandra or Leyton Orient and spent the first part of this season following all 3. You find what you keep gravitating towards vs what feels forced and uninteresting.

Honestly, I tried the Sunderland, Wrexham documentaries. Too many Americans like Wrexham (too trendy) and Sunderland supporters seemed like ……. (I’ll be nice. Not my kind of people).
As long as they don’t say things like “Ha’way the lads” or “Big Club”, I can ignore them.
It’s literally an MLS club. I try, but I enjoy English football much more. It’s my first time following any sports team that isn’t local and will agree that it’s much more difficult without the feeling of history and community. Thanks for the advice though.
Which MLS team is it?
FC Cincinnati
That Giants ballpark is gorgeous!
Was Just there! Well, Pigeon Forge lol.
I remember Ickey Woods and his shuffle when he scored a TD for the Bengals
And don’t forget your upstairs neighbours
Also, still support FC Cincinnati. No reason you can't do both.
TQL Stadium is beautiful.
My local team Harborough. I run my daughters u13s team there also. But the 1st team is doing wonders the last few years - awesome alongside supporting Cov. (And Rugby Town!)
It certainly is, the family loved Candlestick Park, but the new one is beautifulThat Giants ballpark is gorgeous!
Ickey took the league by storm during that Super Bowl run. I was 13 and we were all doing the shuffleI remember Ickey Woods and his shuffle when he scored a TD for the Bengals
. Sadly injuries ended his career before he made big money. He was selling meat door to door at one point.
