I’d throw baseball in the “best at the sport” category considering several other countries play it with the US, Japan, and to a lesser extent Mexico dominating the sport. It’s more of a basketball or hockey situation where there’s plenty of leagues to play in than an American football situation where you play here or nowhere. Death to the Super League. Only small clubs like Juve or Real are threatened etc etc

FullLeatherJacket posted:I mean, Football Club United of Manchester is literally just jumbling up the existing words until nonsense falls out (it was originally just FC United until someone at the FA pointed out that you have to be named after a place). You do have this slightly weird thing where people chant for 'FC', like it's going to be good time tonight when we go and watch Football Club and hope that Football Club win, but yeah you can put it on a hat and stuff. I agree, they should chant F-CUM.

FullLeatherJacket posted:i mean, the football part is kinda implied and redundant I think given their history and success in leading the fan movement stuff it makes more sense than some rando team but yeah it is kinda goofy when you think about it. Is my impression correct that labor law with regard to football players something everyone involved is trying very hard not to get a court to look at too closely?

vyelkin posted:Yeah pretty much. Nobody wants labour laws like "an employee can give two weeks' notice and then go work for a rival company" applied to football clubs even though when you really get down to it footballers are employees like anybody else. Ah. My dad is still mad about free agency in American sports which we got when the courts told baseball to gently caress off with the reserve clause. It seems that sports financial stuff always falls apart when a court looks at it. Odd.

Bundy posted:Two good videos into the catalyst of the European Super League, the formation of the Premier League (originally named Super League): Not sure where to ask but on this subject can anyone recommend a book on English football during the ‘80s dark ages? My knowledge only really picks up when I got hooked on old DOS management sims in the 90s.
