I get to be as self-indulgent as I want without wasting anyone's time. Guilt-free solipsism -- excellent!

The World Cup convinced ESPN journalist Bill Simmons that he'd missed the boat on English football, and so he decided to do some homework and pick a team to follow for the next year. And by follow he means watch their games on Fox Soccer Channel, fly over to attend a couple of matches..the full Monty.

He's now made a decision, and his article about it has to be the best piece of American writing on English football that I've ever read. Naturally I'm gutted at his ultimate choice -- and his poor reasons for eliminating West Ham from contention (maybe I should have written in?) -- but thrilled at the project as a whole. Respect.

I can't wait for this season -- roll on August 19th!
