Comments on: Max Bretos is my hero … http://www.epltalk.com/max-bretos-is-my-hero/2034 Daily News & Analysis of the English Premier League Sun, 22 Nov 2009 03:54:43 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: Mookie http://www.epltalk.com/max-bretos-is-my-hero/2034#comment-9783 Mookie Tue, 13 May 2008 14:35:55 +0000 http://www.epltalk.com/max-bretos-is-my-hero/2034#comment-9783 DOH!! TAKE TWO! This is why the league no longer cares about the type of fan it attracts just that the crowd numbers are passable: so the initial investors can cut their losses and new investors can be hoodwinked. The MLS folks must have a different viewpoint of passable number of fans than me. I expect the stadium to be at least 90% filled, and seeing how the only team that doesn't need David Beckham to fill up a stadium is in Canada (Mookie's fav Toronto FC)...MLS should follow Europe. I mean, the fans don't make a noise. They just blow a horn and bang the drums. Where are the chants? Where are the songs? Oh yeah, Bretos. If I have to hear "YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!" one more time..... DOH!! TAKE TWO!

Both are more fans than journalist. Sure they are successful but Cohen doesn't even know his own club IMO. His as fickle as most fans, his opinion is based on the media' stereotypes or generic arguments but his show is very entertaining and these days a lot more informative. Kenny stands by his opinions and i like that about him despite the fact i have problems with a lot what he says. This most recent issue i have with him is his love for Belletti.

Come on, do you actually take the guy seriously? He doesn't actually know much about soccer aside from Chelsea, can't pronounce people's names right, and like I said, has a very general understanding but knows nothing about tactics, players, etc. Sanjay, get off the WSD/Steven Cohen bandwagon…
