Unpopular opinions

Add U2 and the Eagles to the list of overrated bands.

Get ready for the BOOM!!
Most American sports are either softened versions of English sports, or dressed up versions of girls sports ???
Rugby –------> NFL
Netball ---------> Basketball
Rounders -------> Baseball

I am proud of the British for finally winning their own tournament this year though. It must be embarrassing perennially getting your ass handed to you by a colony or mainland rivals.
P. S. soccer sucks!
-
Difference is we suck at sports that are good, you're good at sports that suck
BTW: That's just my (unpopular) opinion, like the thread title says
-
No cheap shots here Sean, just unpopular opinions. And I ain't no cyber warrior either, as Doug, Monday and Chris can confirm I had this debate loudly in a New York bar where the only English folks at the time were me and Alex (who did not participate due to not being drunk enough).
-
P.S Could not agree more about comic book movies, enough already.
-
Man, I watched NFL for years (loved the Raiders in the late 80's/ early 90's), but it is simply a slowed down version of Rugby with extra padding.
And MCH is also right, soccer (real football) does suck, has done for years, but it's the most popular sport in the world and until they televise drunken brawling in Englands town centers, it is the sport I will choose to watch

Im going to come out and say Im not really a fan of the standard cuban heel on White's boots. I get the functionality, but I just think that it looks odd at times when worn for fashion like 90% of White's these days (mine included). Same with Kiltie's. Unless you are kicking cow shit on a daily basis on a farm, ditch the kiltie.
agree on the Red Wings and Converse things earlier, athough I do like the look of Converse. They feel like shit though and make my feet sweat like a pig also.
-
I like the cuban heel because it stopped my old SD's looking like Red Wing GT's and I just stuck with the habit, but I see why folks would not like them.
On a similar subject, screw chromexcel and in particular screw "natty" chromexcel. It will simply be brown or dark tan in less than a year anyway.
-
Hate kilties. I knew I was forgetting something when I was griping about cap toed boots.
Oddly, caps on shoes don't bug me, especially a full brogue.
-
i agree with you on CXL, especially natural cxl. Mine look like a soggy brown after a year, and no more evo for them.
-
Im def. in the minority on this one, but I cant stand American sports, period. A bunch of over paid premadonna's, I dont have time for that bullshit

Then you hate the athletes, not the sport. Big difference IMO
-
The athletes are paid what the market will bear, I can't really fault them for that. If there were 10,000 people who could do what LeBron James can do his salary and endorsements would tell another story.
That said, athletes in America are treated as nobility from a very young age and basically are held above the law… so it's no surprise the prima donna attitudes emerge. It does suck.
But I love me some football and hockey in particular, and basketball and baseball as well.
