They both have suddenly decided to start playing soccer. Must be the spring or something.

WORLD CUP FEVER!!!!   :headbang:
Man, if the tickets hadn't been $1800, I would totally be buying tickets!  I already have places to stay lined up and everything  :crybaby:
But the sad thing is, I'd probably go to all the Japan games 'cause I don't know any of the players on the American team...  Sadness...

But the season is nearly over..... It ends on may 9th.  And my beloved tigers may go out of the premier League :(

See, that's another reason why Americans can't really embrace soccer...  You're a major league team one year, and not the next.  What's the point?
Here in Japan, my local team won the championship last year, but was bumped down a league after one lousy season.  What's with that???  Now who do I root for?
The nice thing about American sports is once you're a major league team, you're always a major league team (until you get sold to another city and moved across country and the name changes).

But promotion and relegation is half the fun!
