    The premise of the article is pretty stupid but I thought the pairing of EPL teams to US cities was interesting. Of course, even with a 20 team league I wind up with no local team.

    the problem with this sort of (silly) thing is that the writers never do their american geography homework.

    Portsmouth is like Seattle?? Burnley is like PHOENIX?!?!

    I've never been to Pompey or Burnley but I'd imagine them to be more like Norfolk, Va and Syracuse, NY.

    I knew it was coming, and sure enough, there it was. Now I have to move.
