I loved not being able to watch Manchester get the trophy because Setanta sports thought it was obviously better for the entire bar to look at the fans and listen to Arsene Wenger get interviewed in french.
@meltyman: Bitch, bitch, bitch. Some of us got up at 6, drove to the bar, sat surrounded by Gunners fans, and had to suffer through glass after painful glass of Guinness to watch their team win their 3rd consecutive Premier League (Suck it, Barclays) title and 18th overall top flight title.
Ok, the getting up early part sucked. The rest was pretty damn awesome. And next year will be even better, because scousers can't count to 19.
I've got this theory that the sports that have the lowest score as a potentially complete game, the more obsessive and insane the fans. I know that's confusing, but the idea is that if a game can end 0-0 and be called a complete game (and does so on a regular basis), the fans are the highest level of psychotic.
I have no research to back this up, just a general feeling.

@Evil J: Even though it's late and no one will ever read this, let me say that I agree. A golf match that ends -8 to -10 will only be watched by a bunch of insane losers.

Don Denkinger certainly endorses such a statement.
