I’m always amazed these sportscasters and announcers can call the game with McDavid’s **** in their mouths all the time.

Agreed, like the one in Portugal seemingly built into a mountainside!

im a fan of Craven Cottage, home of Fulham FC. It's so quaint and British.

henricksedin33, you are probably too young to remember Callister Park in Vancouver but this was a real soccer stadium where I saw my first soccer game. Local all star teams used to play English first division teams there and often win. The winner of the PCSL were also regular Canadian champions and won a few Kennedy Cups in the 60s when they competed against the US Champions and the Mexican National Selects. Here's a picture.

Callister Park was soccer's home in Vancouver for more than five decades.
IIRC the striped uniforms were the Vancouver Firefighters.
