Perhaps you've been living in a nuclear fallout shelter for some reason, or have just avoided all
forms of mass media over the last two weeks or so and didn't know that the NFL season starts
tonight. Well, it does, and the super spectacular kickoff game features the defending Super Bowl
champions versus the Brett Favres.

Originally spotting this at Off The Post, I thought it was Photoshop. It's not.
Julien Escude has gone the phonetic route on the back of his shirt this year, eschewing Escude
for SQD, which sounds like a half-decent knockoff watch being sold for €16 out of a milk crate at
a burrito stand.
Chad and Ronaldinho - borrowed from The OffsideChad Ochocinco is a soccer fan. He pals around with
famous footballers, he owns a strong collections of soccer shirts, and he has stated repeatedly
that the game was his first sporting love. During a recent appearance on FSC's Soccer Talk Live,
Chad did what Chad does, when he stated something nearly impossible to take at face value and yet
seemingly plausible: that perhaps he would drop American football for the other kind of football,
and might do so as early as next year.
Part 1 of our Q&A can be seen here. In the second part, Arlo talks about replacing
Seattle-announcing icon Kevin Calabro, discusses his early career and gives us a less on
cricket.
S@H: You were hired to essentially replace Kevin Calabro, who was a bit of a Seattle
announcing icon. Was that difficult or did you think the audience was just ready to have a soccer
guy?
After the United States' poor 2006 World Cup campaign, Sunil Gulati and the national federation
sacked (somewhat) legendary coach Bruce Arena. 2006 was a critical point in US soccer history not
only because the national team performed so poorly with so much momentum carried over from 2002's
stellar campaign on the line, but because the national federation was going to make a splash,
assert itself as a force to be reckoned with by hiring a cultured manager who could resonate the
part.
If the American sporting landscape was like a Discovery Channel or Animal Planet special, soccer in
America and football in America would be natural enemies in the wild. One, American football,
brutish and violent, stalking the sleek, but formidable American soccer.
It would be easy to say that American soccer fans have a bit of a complex when it comes to
comparing themselves and their sport to the king of all sports in the United States, football.

Foot Locker employee gets confused OTP can offer some reassurance to both Stuart Atwell and
Sunderland supporters: there are incompetent officials in all sports. This bungling referee was in
charge of yesterday's American football clash between the Dallas Cowboys and the Houston Texans.
Just like Atwell, he hasn't got a clue what's going on; just [.

The merits and quality of American football (yes, soccer) can be debated for days on end (even
if there is a right and wrong answer currently), but one thing is surely beyond question: the fans
are inching ever closer to the counterparts across the pond.
Prime example? Saturday's banner against the Seattle Sounders.
