After sitting in third most of the year, they just dropped to 4th, but are still 5 points clear of Chelsea and Newcastle, with only 8 games to go.
Looks like it will be Champions League football next year, as long as they don't fall apart.
'Many US children look up to NFL football players. Most NFL football players are overweight and half are obese by Table 1 standards. If you look only at inner linemen (guards, tackles and centers), 36 are morbidly obese and there is only one player out of 295 that is not obese. If symbols are important, the image of obese men running around football fields for large sums of money on Sunday is not good. In the rest of the world, soccer is the dominant sport. Most soccer players are not overweight.'
It's on the INTERNET! So it must be true.
You can't be dumb enough to still believe in BMI...not to mention that's got to be one of the most idiotic blogs I've ever read.

I did call it the right name, it's football. And American football is American football.
No, you're wrong. European football is called Feetball, because you use both your feet. And American is called Football, because you use one foot to kick the ball.

Ohhhh, so they're not obese, the BMI chart is what's messed up.
When 100 pounds of flab hangs over their shorts, their necks are 80% jiggly, they have pornstar size boobs, and 20 seconds of effort requires oxygen....it's the BMI chart that's doing them injustice.

Wait, wait....
so you would consider a RB who is say 5'11" and 220 obese right?
they are fairly common, and pretty damn well in shape.
hell, Reggie Bush, you can look up your own half naked pics if you like, is overweight.
no one is disputing lineman being fatasses, but they are not even half of the team.
