Comments on: Why indie music fans = sports fans http://www.northbynorthwestern.com/2007/04/2551/why-indie-music-fans-and-sports-fans-arent-that-different/ A daily newsmagazine of campus and culture for Northwestern University.

Also Mr. Peter should really take another look at the history of sports before he dismisses them as meaningless. For example, major league baseball broke the color barrier before the rest of society ended segregation. There are very important social aspects of sports that Peter is clearly overlooking. I found the article very funny Patrick, especially the part about Gnarls and Charles. Go Mariners!!! 2-0!!!

I can't tell if you're being sardonic or serious; either way, this article fails at being funny because of how incredibly pretentious it is; your e-penis won't grow no matter how witty! and enlightened! you try to come off as. “Though, just for the record, us indie kids focus our excitement on meaningful works of art, while you guys scream when one guy throws a ball through a hoop.”
