Stuff white people like: soccer

    Here's a great blog with a new angle on football fans...
    the main reason white people like soccer is so they can buy a new scarf. As you may or may not know, many soccer teams issue special scarves, and white people cannot get enough of them!

    Most white people choose a favorite soccer team based on either a study abroad experience or a particularly long vacation to Europe or South America. When they return, they like to tell their friends about how great “football” is and that they are committed to ‘getting more into’ now that they have returned home.

    If that was about black people, there'd be outrage to be fair.

    Some of its pretty good stuff to be fair. Also its more about American white people than European white people, and there is a big difference :)

    Am I the only one who thought that was way off the mark, not even even remotely funny, even though it desperately tried to be.

    So far, that would seem to be the case.
    Maybe you just have a white person's sense of humour. :eek:
    (That last bit is a joke).
