There's a message board on the net where anyone who wants to talk about soccer can connect with people in their own state. Well, over the weekend, someone posted to the message board, revealing information that someone from a major soccer club had just received his fourth DUI. There have been, easily, a half dozen threads and hundreds of posts on the subject. I almost feel sorry for the guy, because emotions are strong going both ways.

You have the parents who have benefited from the guy's good works in soccer defending him to the hilt, claiming that his private life is none of anybody's business; and then you have everybody else literally eviscerating the man. And then, here comes the best comeback of all just with minor editing added:

"If you people put as much effort into selecting a President as you do in getting rid of a coach at a soccer club that you don't even belong to, this country wouldn't have the clown in the white house that we have."
