I am starting to sound preachy because I have left a similar message on another post. Anyway, I just wanted to get my point across here.
By no means am I happy about the Man Utd/Yankee deal. It's only going to be bad for the game. I have seen a lot of posts speaking about America/Americans being so greedy, and taking over the world..blah,blah. In many ways I am in complete agreement with you. Our "society" in America holds nothing sacred and the American influence is spreading ever faster with the introduction of the internet.
However, I have a question for all of you who are not Americans: Should you blame Corporate America or the ones who sell out to them? You are using Microsoft, play our computer games, watch our movies and TV shows, wear our clothes, drink our Coca Cola, maybe drive our cars, eat our McDonalds..etc.. I could go on forever.
If you don't like the American influence, why do you soak it up like a sponge??? Look around you, open your eyes! If you cherish your heritage, don't sell out!!! And if you do sell out, don't bitcccch about it. I remember when all of the great music came out of Europe and now you import all of our crap there! To me this is as bad or worse than the changes this deal will bring to football!
