I’m certain that no true member of the Falcons Nation will waffle between tonight’s choices: Glendale vs. Poo or White Sox vs. Astros. However, for those more fickle fans, here is a sense of perspective from Steven Wells at the Guardian Unlimited:

“Now here’s an odd thing: most American males over the age of 30 will parrot the line that soccer is “deadly” to watch. And yet every week throughout the summer, hundreds of thousands of Americans (all allegedly cursed with the attention span of hyperactive gnats) dutifully troop into state-of-the-art mega-stadiums to spend three hours (or longer) watching baseball – a sport so glacially tedious that it makes even the dullest MLS soccer game look like Topless Humans v. Gorillas No-Rules Roller Derby On Crystal Meth.”
