Go figure, we live crammed with 17 million ppl in a country thrice as small as your homestate Alabama where according to wiki 5 million ppl live.
But keep in mind, that history has shown that nature can pack a WHOLE LOTTA fucking stupidity and hatred into the 5 million people. So, it's like a super charged 5 million .

Plus the average person in the southern US is 3 times as large..... nnnn

But you have such a great football team!!
Down here, we all know that the absolutely only thing we have that redeems us in our collective ignorance is Alabama Football.
We have the most beautiful mountains, rivers, flatlands, agriculture, swamps, and the most beautiful beaches in the world, but then we filled it with Southerners. Go figure.

Ironic! Right after the game last night, but I was referring to Danwil's country's FB team!

Yes, Bama has a team and program that's enormous, and enormously successful.

Dutch team had troubles with qualifying for the latest EC / WC championships. The last generation was quite golden with van der vaart, sneijder, robben (played at Real Madrid and other top teams), Van Persie (Arsenal and ManU), van bronckhorst and the De Boer Twins (played at Barcelona, Ronald De Boer went to the MLS Finals with Atlanta as a coach), the generation now in strikers is sub par allthough they play at big clubs. The backfield is great, I think you can play with 3 defenders (Van Dyck @ Liverpool, De Vrij @ Inter Milan and De Ligt @ Juventus Torino) and 2 "wingbacks" which are also getting better that can push more from midfield.

And I can root anywhere for them.... And the most funny part is; I watch Baseball (go Red Sox), Hockey and Gridiron Football more!

Van Dyk is topnotch pro, get on the pitch, play like a pro, step off the pitch, be a gentleman to the press and go home. And he left his first pro club in The Netherlands (Groningen) for Southampton at a very young age and did not have to adjust in any way.

Hmmm football and hockey I don't really have a team. I could root for the Bruins and Patriots as I allready root for the Red Sox but I have a feeling thats more seen as a felony than rooting for other teams haha. I somehow also kind of like Seattle as a sportscity, I love the whole 12th man mantra at the Seahawks, Mariners failing since they exist with great players (Griffey Jr, Johnson, Ichiro) and the Kraken you just can't like them with that name.
