You should probably sit this one out. And most others, too. We're begging you.

That article is so bad man, it looks like they did copy and paste from Wikipidia.

"We can only speculate numbers" :D sounds like something that would come out of Fox News.

Good laughs, thanks for making my day :p
 
Facts like English second divison players make a million a year?

Or that fans will travel thousands of miles by horseback to see a second- (or third) tier league soccer team?

For someone who abhors speculation, you sure do speculate a lot.
 
"Speculating numbers" what is he claiming?

That is hardly a mistake. It was a speculation he backed up with statistics and evidence.

I have no doubt El Clasico has a huge audience, but it does sound like that 400 million number is one that was somewhat made up and outlets just ran with. I tried a quick bit of research and only found the same references to "expected" and "potential" viewers. No actual hard data.

He says "We know that 2 million people" :-) watched el clasico in the USA," this guy is so dumb, that only means around 2 million people watched it on cable tv, not online.

Then he says "moslty" latin america and spanish tv :D

This guy prob went to Clemson and works for Fox News, how stupid can a person be to think nobody watches El Clasico outside of Latin America? Real Madrid just claimed around 400 million fans, saying the majority of their website visits are coming from the USA...

The education in America used to be well respected, it used to be... :oops:
 
Were you speculating on the numbers that would travel to Atl?

Your reading comprehension skills could use some work.

If you actually believe that only 2.5 million Americans and mostly latin americans watch El Clasico, I think is safe to say that you have a zhit load to learn about soccer and about the world.

I believe what there is evidence for. The author of that report made a claim and provided evidence for it. You have provided a hard-to-believe number and a "trust me."

And I know all I need to know about soccer.
 
I will get back to you later, im on my way to the Redskins stadium to watch El Salvador vs Argentina, lets see if Messi can prove me he is a legit street baller.
