Thanks for the warm welcome!Bulldozers wrote:Welcome, James. Where in Utah do you live? I went to school at U of U and spent some time in St. George and Cedar City. Not to mention camping and hiking in Zion every summer for a decade.

Steel Dragons wrote:Not quite John The C is for City. In his piece James said he was a soccer fan of Real Salt Lake and Manchester United (united is often abbreviated to Utd as is Manchester to Man in football terms to save room in papers), well I'm a season ticket holder of Manchester City and the rivalry is, well think Red Sox/Yankees but much more bitter, although for many years now united have been top dog winning many trophies while City have faltered sinking as low as the third tier at one point.
Now City's new owners are pumping money in (we're talking billions literally) and times are changing. In our recent league game we went to United's ground (Old Trafford) and won 6-1, the biggest wining margin ever (since the rivalry started in the late 1800's).
The big blue 6 shows the goal at the bottom and the tracks show where each run was made with the ball to score the goals. Its a piece of English fan taunting which I hope James would understand but I doubt it as many Manchester United fans are fans just because they're big and famous not because they have any love for the club or it's players
And I would welcome the chance to pursue full-time banter with James
Interesting! Just this year I've started reading The Reducer, a weekly column about the Premier League on the sports web site Grantland, which prompted me to pick a team to cheer for. Naturally, I chose Everton....America's TeamSteel Dragons wrote:It's nice to see a few football (ok ... soccer) lovers coming out of the woodwork. See our GM photo thread for me with the FA Cup and I will endeavour as soon as I can next season to post one of me with City's Premier League trophy
