Ten reasons why the English Premiership is BETTER than the FIFA World Cup

This one I found in one of the Orkut communities. I liked it very much, being an EPL fan myself. Especially 8th point, which is commonly seen in India during World Cup (I remember, at IIT common room people wanted to see Brazil-Japan rather than Australia-Croatia, though latter was more interesting and action-packed).

Ten reasons why the English Premiership is BETTER than the FIFA World Cup:

10. No WAGs (Wives and girlfriends of footballers) in the Premiership (at least they are not featured and glorified in every newspaper in the country).
9. Managerial catfights and mind games (Alex Ferguson v Kevin Keegan '96, Jose Mourinho v Arsene Wenger '05, Alex Ferguson v Arsene Wenger all the time)
8. No hype, excessive marketing, and arbit ignorant people pretending to be Brazil fans, loving their "unique brand of Samba football".
7. No opening ceremonies, national anthems, declarations against racism and other pseudisms.
6. No relegation six-pointers.
5. No stupid chants of You-Es-Aye!, You-Es-Aye!. Stupid Americans, nobody needs them.
4. Fewer red cards, more violence.
3. Martin Tyler and Andy Gray!
2. No penalty shootouts.
1. No David Beckham!
