Is it weird that finding out that Rachel Riley is a United fan makes me dislike them less?

At his graduation ceremony from the U of Minnesota, my cousin got a keychain. When asked what UW gave her for graduation, my sister said, "A degree from a University that matters."
There's a bit of worry regarding Clint Dempsey right now. Just after the home game against Portland he sidelined for "irregular heartbeat" and was left out against Houston and Portland as well as the WCQ games for the US. Now, after the international break, he's yet to even return to practice let alone game action. There's speculation that he may have the same enlarged heart issues Eddie Johnson had that forced him to retire.
But let's be real...There are 40 some other teams and only two alaskan teams...the day one of us wins something big will be the day I transfer to UAA

Who here has tried to get tickets to soccer matches in Europe, specifically in Italy? Mrs. EoDS and I are thinking of trying to see a game at Napoli (the UCL match against Dynamo Kiev) when we visit there later this year, and even after a cursory google search, I'm not sure about the best way to go about doing that.
Anyone here with experience buying tickets for stuff like that?

So I'm gonna give it another shot: adopting a competitive EPL team. I'm tending towards Arsenal (red and style of play) but could you guys give me a comparison of the power teams' fans' "intangibles"?
Arsenal:
Chelsea: (impossible since my "real" albeit doomed team is Fulham)
Man U:
Man City:
Liverpool:

If you want to root for Arsenal, fine. But the rest of them are intolerable.

Man U = Yankees
Man City = White Sox if owned by an oil sheikh.
Liverpool equates closest to the Cubs as they have never won the Premier League but watching games at Anfield is unparalleled...for me at least.
Hardcore fans are definitely yo-yoers...as in they win a game....winning it all baby. Lose one...fire everyone.
So a happy medium is avoiding most social media comments after games regardless of outcome.

I think of Liverpool = Boston because of the ownership but more because they radiate Holier Than Thou. Nice kit, though -- probably the best in the EPL. (But the Sox have nice threads too and that doesn't make them any less hateful).
My only issue with Arsenal is I kinda like Spurs, and that would have to go.

When I was in Florence we just bought tickets at the match. It was easy and not too expensive (even with it being more expensive than usual; it was somewhat of a desired fixture from what I recall).
That was a Serie A game not Champions League, and a different club...so no idea what ticket availability is likely to be in Naples. But I would say if you want seating in a specific area, or at a specific price point, finding an outlet in advance would be clever. From what I recall the cheap seats and the "good" seats were unavailable, so we were left with mid-tier seating (although we bought our tickets about 10min to kick-off so that probably played a role).

I see the new Coach of England resigned after what two months on the job.
As far as the EPL....I've been a Liverpool fan for a while but honestly recently it's hard to cheer for them. It's not the same since they traded Suarez.
I love the Liverpudlians though.

On July 24th the Seattle Sounders lost to Sporting KC 3-0, were in 9th place in the Western Conference (17th overall) and were 10 points out of the playoffs.
This week they win 3 games in 8 days, are now 5th in the West, 3 points above the redline, and have a shot at 4th and 3rd in the West.
