*thinks a minute

Is it ok to say big four?  Oh hell I\'ll go with it.

Although the graphics are sometimes equal I always find the game play nods to EA.


You may say so, that\'s your opinion. But I\'m pretty damn sure football (or soccer as you call it) is bigger than all those four combined, mainly due to the fact that basketball, baseball and American football only are big sports in the US.

Soccer on the other hand has billions of fans combined around the world, it\'s the only sport that could pass as a universal "religion". ;)

July 2002: If you had bought $1000.00 worth of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.00. Enron, $16.50 left. Worldcom, $5.00 left. If you had bought $1,000.00 worth of Budweiser beer one year ago, drank it all and turned in the cans for the 10 cent deposit, you would have $214.00. Based on the above, my current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle.

Well now I know and knowing is indeed half of the battle.  I didn\'t know there were that many foreigners on this site.  I know you guys like soccer and more power to you.

In the US I think everyone would agree that the big four are Hockey, Baseball, Football, and Basketball.  Just because America (on the whole) doesn\'t like soccer doesn\'t mean you all have to get pissed off at me.

I\'m sorry for the international incident.  I will indeed keep my thoughts to the Madden forum (the real football).
