Clive Longbottom-Fellow, Esq.
Clive Longbottom-Fellow, Esq. is a scholar and a gentleman, but more gentleman than scholar. He enjoys Chap-Hop, soft rock, fine cuts of goat meat, sorcery, and arguing with other would-be scholars. Clive pursued a career in football until his intelligence got in the way, which explains his love/hate relationship with book learning and debate. Although he acknowledges that reading is fundamental, he still kind of resents book learning for taking him away from his true love. Football is still his passion, and one day Clive would like to settle down with someone who loves football and is "exactly like him." When not bashing the learned or watching football, Clive relaxes by discussing antitrust law, international development, and animal husbandry in a variety of online chat rooms and forums. Clive lives with his pet pigeon, Obadiah. To learn more about Chap-Hop, visit http://bit.ly/1i8b2A.
The Chairman
Ever since he was a wee lad playing with his rubber mallet, the Chairman has let his opinion be known by hammering away at the heads of all that disagree with him. Although not fully reformed from his head banging days (still can't separate the man from his mallet), the Chairman has toned down a bit and has learned to talk softly and carry a big stick. When not engaged in discourse about football, the Chairman enjoys chairing board meeting of any kind and corrupting the youth of the world into thinking that Rod Stewart is the greatest football-playing song writer of all time.

El Gringo Louco
This man was born in the wrong place, Ohio, the heart of American Football country. He managed to avoid ever attending a school that fielded a gridiron team and has been in love with the beautiful game for as long as he can remember (it was probably the orange slices at halftime and cupcakes after the match that got him hooked). He fancies himself a football realist and prefers teams that do not play beautifully - Liverpool, Atlético de Madrid, Flamengo and the US national team. When he's not watching football, he's probably trying to figure out when he will next be watching football. Pet peeves include British people advising that Americans improperly call the sport soccer (Brits, check your local listings - pretty sure you'll find a show called "Soccer Sunday") and people making fun of the World Series and NBA World Championships because only US teams participate - point taken, now GET OVER IT!
Beowulf Ritchie
Beowulf Ritchie gets around. He gets bored staying in any one place for too long. Ritchie played soccer for one season when he was nine years old. He hasn't played since, but he likes to watch sometimes. You got a problem with that? Beowulf thinks he's way cooler than he actually is, and he probably doesn't like you, because you suck.
