They are definitely the best football (soccer) league in the world right now.
... just ask any English fan. *laughs*
Are there any English-owned teams in the Premiership anymore? Chelsea bought by a Russian and renamed "Chelski, da!"... United's takeover by an American businessman.
Personally, I'll choose watching static over Serie A or English football at any level, or at least mute the commentators. I'm always afraid they'll be arrested for inappropriate touching with all the back-patting.
