I had to share this. The quote comes from an email I received from England's Guardian newspaper. The author is discussing the USA's World Cup performance. Here goes:

"After all, soccer is by no means the most popular sport stateside: it trails miles behindgridiron, baseball, shooting sprees, insider trading, surfing for bongo, gorging on cheeseburger-flavoured gherkin ice-creams with 12 gallons of Pepsi and making 58,768 versions of the same action movie."

Though it's always worth reading the British press, I am especially fond of it at times like this.
