[kj] Celtic fan vs Dida attack

Well, there are people who passively like sports, and then there are
"sports fans" -- people who eat, breathe, shit, shower, shave sports
all the time.

Likewise, there are people who passively enjoy music, and then there
are "music fans" -- people who are preoccupied with the listening,
accumulation and ephemera of music.

I'm not saying they're mutually exclusive.

I'm just saying that "sports fans" more often than not tend to be
meatnecked, slackjawed idiots.

This is not to say that all music fans are exemplary human beings,
but they're probably less likely to be a slackjawed aped inclined to
punch you in the jaw.

Ale
