OT No put down...really....its just that Shack's comment about it being as big over here (in selected cities) is a REAL STRETCH, if not totally inaccurate.. Likely, the TV ratings in places like Detroit and Pittsburgh will be higher than my comment suggests..but c'mon, in your country this is likely going to be the HIGHEST rated TV event of ALL-TIME. By comparison, Stanley Cup matches (on "National TV" nonetheless) in the States draw ratings (total) below even mid-summer meaningless baseball games....and this match will likely be a big winner in some cities, but nothing like major sporting events here... This is not an indicement of the sport (good or bad)..look, I like soccer, and the ratings are somewhere near hockey's, and they are abysmal... I really see no reason why Canadian should hate Americans any more (or less) because of my comments....there was no offensive meant, and certainly none should be taken. In general, I would say the "rest of the world" (not you in particular) are as over-sensitive about the U.S. as Americans are in sticking their foot in the mouth (or someplace else where it doesn't belong...
