Stop Soccer from Spreading
It’s up to us to stop the spread of soccer and introduce the beauty of baseball. Millions of young boys and girls in Ireland have no choice but to trudge around kicking a black-and-white ball. Give them the opportunity to throw the horsehide, swing the lumber, and run around a real baseball diamond. The Irish need only $1 each from 20,000 people to build the first ballpark ever constructed in Ireland.
Donate a dollar today, and put an end to soccer tomorrow..

Forget about the spread of soccer (which, oddly enough was a term coined by an Englishman)–it’s everywhere and then some. You ever try explaining to someone from somewhere outside of the US what the hell’s going on during a game? Good luck. Soccer? “Ball needs to go in there, and only the two guys on each end with the Mickey Mouse gloves can touch it with their hands”
