Hockey is nothing but frozen soccer with less people on the teams and more Canadians and Russians. There, I said it!!!
However I must, must, must give you:
for dropping the Drogba reference. How did you know I like Chelsea? I'm quite impressed and that's much better than I could do with a hockey reference. At least hockey doesn't have a problem with diving.
I feel your pain EA. These undignified people can't accept a man's love for a sometimes boring fringe sport. I live with it everyday. Of course if soccer had fighting then we could talk...
So, the phenomenon of the Fantasy sport has, of course, grown to include soccer. And I must say that I have been anxiously awaiting this day when I can once again register a fantasy team for the English Premier League.
The EPL is the highest rung of soccer in England and indeed is quite possibly the best all around league in the world. Sure Barcelona, Real Madrid, AC and Inter Milan have some big names on their teams. But the EPL has more big names scattered throughout more teams providing for a much better all around competition. And the Fantasy version is just as cool.
If any of you were so inclined to give it a go, I would love to set up a Sly Records league.
