Right. When did this become a thing? Why?
Two girls, one cup, I think.
So there are lots of vids of people's reactions to 2g1c? And since then people have been filming themselves watching sporting events?
That's the first thing I remember seeing reaction videos for.

The first ones I saw were around the maze/scary chick website. They were pretty hilarious though.

I did that to my 4 year old daughter. Hilarious.

Those are real teams and scores.
Exactly! You're making my case for me, Jim! Those teams are in like the 7th division of the english league system. They're store clerks, construction workers and bankers keeping their dream alive. And if, IF! they get hot, keep building and keep getting better, that team could someday make it all the way to the premier league! This team that plays in front of crowds of dozens and who's players have to go to day jobs during the week could conceivably someday be playing in front of hundreds of millions of viewers worldwide! That's a beautiful thing.
7th division? English League System? You are making my case trill.

And the 1st division has a team called Man City. Not that there is anything wrong with that, but c'mon. Is there a Boob City? No of course not, that would be crazy.

Chelsea. Jesus H Christ what kind of name of a town/team is that?

Boob City is in the second division. Did well last year, but not enough to earn a promotion.

Are the names racist like the redskins name? If so, then there may be a reason to kvetch. As is, not liking soccer because of the names of some European towns is stupid.
