Obviously I'm a fan (and a player). DC United above all else, but also Blackburn Rovers and River Plate are my favorites. Yes, River, zexen, I'm not afraid to say so. We won the title last the season before this one (er, I mean, what season? ;). In any case, at least River didn't back their way into "winnning" by losing.

Yeah, and at least Boca has never finished in the last position in the league like some team did

Anyway, this discussion is as old as football, you could continue touting your superiority in local titles and how we "robbed" this league and I could continue bothering you with how you finished in the last position and how many more international titles than you we have, and this would never end.

Yes of course.  Congratulations on your championship, but I did have to get a little dig in...you understand that well enough I could even go back to pointing out how Boca players usually fail in Europe while River players succeed brilliantly, but maybe I've already said too much!

Anyway can't say about Real, haven't been able to see them a lot since stupid Dish Network dropped GolTV (which shows La Liga in the U.S.).  But just watching Chelsea even playing the bottom club in England (West Brom), they were pretty dire.  Sure, they're not going to lose to a team like that with all the great players they buy, but their football is dire.  Comparing the way Chelsea play to a club like Barcelona, it's like playing X random kart racing game compared with Mario Kart.
