@AlexiLalas @matthewdmarsden I don't even like how MLS has adopted foreign club names like Real, Sporting, or anything FC.

@heymiller All of that has been tried over the last few decades to try and make the game more "American". None of it has ever been successful.

@DylanFMackinnon But only when the call is against your randomly chosen favorite team. Bad calls against the other guys? Right on.

@JamieMetzl I invite you to select a random stranger and slam into him at a full sprint. Without the body armor.

@ijajt_ The “nothing is happening” line from people who worship a game that’s 3/4 commercials.

@LFCAmericanReds This is just one example of many comparisons between football and armored throwball that flatten any of the typical arguments against the beautiful game.

@JamesSurowiecki It's not the amount of scoring that makes a good game though. Plenty of examples of entertaining 0-0 draws with amazing action.

@AlexiLalas We may consider improvements to the beautiful game, but only after the name is permanently changed to football, and the immensely boring sport that usurped that name is redesignated to something more fitting of standing around between plays while commercials are run.

@Deseret But guys, alfalfa is delicious. And it’s best (apparently) when it’s grown in a desert.

@thejakebuzz There are many ways. Also, an apostrophe makes it possessive.

@BLackgold_5 Cuz it’s cool.

@ChrisJCooper92 Ignorance is definitely not exclusive to Americans. Spend a day in Disney World and you’ll see many people from far away acting like they’re the only ones there. For example, we walk on the right here. You may do differently at home but adhering to local customs is courteous.

@JustineBateman I’m sorry the airline experience isn’t always great for everyone, we try hard to make it the best we can. But if deregulation hadn’t happened, fares would be at least 30% higher. Still not bad for the ability to scream through the edge of space in a thin tube in relative safety.

@Deseret You want to grow alfalfa in the desert or not?
