I have friends from Columbia, some of the nicest people I've ever known.
I have also heard and witnessed that Columbia's women are regarded as the fittest in SA. A couple I have seen make Shakira look ordinary.
You're a City from IL? Do tell.
Forgot I posted this...
Spent a semester in Manchester ten years ago or so, and I couldn't stand the United fans before I really knew what United was. I decided to hop on a bandwagon, well, you could say 5 of my room-mates forced me to jump on the City bandwagon, and after one game it was love at first sight...with the team and the sport. So, yeah, I'm certainly a bandwagon jumper, but I did it well before the new owners came in...if that counts for anything.
Since then I've made scattered trips back to England to see my old friends and catch a game or two...just love the atmosphere...it puts the NFL(the other football) to shame. The only sport that compares, in the States, for entertainment value and atmosphere, is the NHL(Hockey). Baseball, while a great game to play, will put you to sleep if you just watch, and Basketball has been going downhill since the greatest athlete I've ever seen(Michael Jordan) retired.
I was born in Chicago, Illinois...went to school at Uni of Chicago, which hooked me up with the semester in Manchester. I'd love to retire to your city someday, but immigration aint too keen on letting 'Yanks in at the moment.
