*More* worked up? Perhaps US beats the Netherlands, but for some
parts of Europe I think the football hooligans still have the edge
over us.
Well, imprimis, it seems your baseball hooligans are quite capable of
causing unpleasant riots themselves, and secundis I wasn't really
talking about the idiots who call themselves fans but do nothing but
cause aggro, but about the _real_ fans. I've never seen any of those
post to usenet with a club .sig (though they probably do in sports
groups), but recently I've spotted several Sox fans who can't control
their excitement even in completely unrelated groups.
Now, I can understand _why_ they're excited. I mean, it's almost like
England winning a major football tournament...
