Because soccer has something called consistency.

or because the winner of the league is determined over the course of the whole season, not just who gets hot late. lolnorthamericansports

Well if they do good throughout the season that is consistency. And keep it up for many years.

(anybody have those numbers for the premiership?)

Champions League, I think, is a better comparison for WL.

Nottingham Forest won twice, and currently sits in the second division of English football. They've been as low as the third division, as recently as two years ago. Every other winner is pretty much a perpetual fixture in the top flight of their country's league, and in the Champions League.

To put things in further perspective of Gart's claim of EPL being the greatest, one should look at the top tier of English football beyond the formation of the Premiership:
112 Titles since 1889. Of the 10 teams have a title and are not in EPL, they account for 21 titles. All of the 10 teams have been in the Premiership with in the last 20 years, and are all either in Championship or League One. So it used to be that anyone could build a contender in England. That is no longer the case

champions league is more like the WPT used to be here. it's not an actual league like WL is.

wtf no. italian soccer is terrible, and la liga has the same problems as the premier league except you have a big two instead of a big four (and a case could be made for including spurs and man city into a big 6)

Sup gart and dpride. Sup.

Sup Mojo. Sup.

sup yo
