That post has to be irony. No-one can claim that soccer teams like Manu or RM doeasn't belong to top 10 globally most greates franchises. Maybe that seems just that way when you assume that europe is a country somewhere far away. Ask an african,Asian or european kid do they regognize Boston celtics and then ask same about RM or ManU. For yopu guys these kinds of lists should be made as greatest ___:s of north america.
