Things to read while waiting for the UPS man to throw Ape’s book at your face. For those of you looking for a bit of summer reading I’d like to wholeheartedly recommend checking out Stephen Rea’s Finn McCool’s Football Club: The Birth, Death, and Resurrection of a Pub Soccer Team in the City of the Dead. Good title. Lofty title. In all seriousness this is the true story of a New Orleans pub and its soccer team before, during, and after Hurricane Katrina told by Rea, a Northern Irish expat (and Chelsea fan). Even if soccer and hurricanes aren’t your thing you’re still likely to enjoy the hell out of this book because Rea has a great story to tell. [Amazon]

This is a great book to read.
And the only gay fans of soccer are the Chelsea’s fans. All the fans of other soccer team are straight.
Customers who bought this book also bought … methamphetamine.
My government health care provider said that a dixie-crat congressman from Mississippi guarentees me that reading a book where soccer is the frame will make me gay. Smooth move, Ape.
I can’t wait when the Blues win it all this year.
If you have no interest in reading the book, don’t whine and bitch. It’s the world’s game, and I follow both types of football with equal passion (go Panthers, although Delhomme needs to man the fuck up.)
Those who claim soccer is gay are gay themselves.
They’d love Crissy Ronaldo then.
And so are all Chelsea supporters.
This is true. Bashing another guy’s face in = hidden desire for male buttsecks.
Those who claim soccer is gay are gay themselves. And so are all Chelsea supporters.
Fuck Chelski.
Stephen Rea left Belfast, Northern Ireland for New Orleans, so all the urban squalor and violence, plus the part about getting fucked over by a government that doesn’t care about you must be old hat to him.
Reading books about Chelsea fans, on the other hand, WILL make you gay.

soooo, even if gay cowboy buttsex and dusty ranges aren’t my thing will I still enjoy Brokeback Mountain?
Actually, yeah.

“What’s a little boy like you doing with big boy smut like this?”

Potential AMAZON links to Ape’s book as determined by purchases from KSK readers:

Anal Fisting With My Girlfriend
Fisting: Care, Responsibility and Trust
The Anarchist Cookbook

Shaundra: The Savage She-Male
“Reading a book about soccer will not make you gay”
I’ll need to check with my doctor, just to be sure.
Ape – how great would it be if AMAZON.com linked your book with a “Customers Also Bought” with multiple porn novels.
Yes, it’s not really a book about soccer, that’s just a frame for the story.
Speaking of my book
DAMN YOU, AMAZON!
I have to save up to buy Ape’s book, so I’ll pass. Plus, I’m not gay.
Actually it’s more about the people at Finn McCool’s (great pub btw) than it is about the soccer. It’s about the folks living on their rooftops trying to put their lives back together.
Extremely lofty book
/dick joke
@ stealofthedraft: stars, dumbass
No, I’m pretty sure that everything about soccer makes you gay.
Excerpt from the book: ” I was barely grazed on the shin by the opponent, but I thought I would fall to the ground and writhe in agony until they brought the stretcher out and then I popped up like nothing happened…but i got my team a free kick so it was all good.”
All 63 Amazon reviews give it 5 starts. Really?!
There’s no secret junk in this book is there? Cause that was pretty gay.
are you sure it won’t make me gay?
