My co-worker Derek who is probably about 6'2 a little over 300 lbs who is a huge soccer fan wanted a Brazil jersey but couldnt find one in his size. Yesterday he was at the Deptford Mall in South NJ and seen some big @ss dude pushing a carraige in a Brazil jersey. He said "Wait where the hell did that guy get it."So he went up to him and asked him. The guy said "Nike gave it to me."Then he said thanks and walked away but then stopped and they looked at each other and Derek was like "oh snap."Then Lavar said "I see we made the connection" and laughed. He told him to make sure he takes everything out on the Skins this year and he said that he is going use a lil bit of energy on the Eagles as well. He also said "the Eagles tried to get me but wanted to give me the chump change home-boy discount". He was in South NJ visiting Jerimah Trotter and decided to head up to the mall he said. Pretty cool story.
How isn't football spreading from country to country throughout the world as the greatest sport there is? Its the best sport in the world, does anyone disagree?
Mice, I met Lava one time after a highschool game here in Pittsburgh where he is from. He came back home on the weekened (Penn State had a bye). Pretty chills guy.

Baseball, soccer, and basketball are way ahead of football in world fanbase.That's a no-brainer.
Which extracts the most emotion out of the viewer? None other than football. You don't have to tell me those other sports are more popular, I'm well aware, I'm just saying football needs to get some freaking RECOGNITION for the great sport that it is.
