Football Is Most Enjoyable

A sympathetic and enjoyable profile of Watford's Jay DeMerit in the October 16 Sports Illustrated can be found here, here, and here.

I was sympathetic too, until the last paragraph:

During his trip home over the summer, DeMerit spent a day in the recording studio with some old friends who own an indie music label in Minneapolis. The resulting track, a guitar-screeching ode to Watford called "Soccer Rocks," celebrates the fairy-tale story of an Everyman and his underdog team who somehow make it to the Premier League:

Let me bring your dream to you/Show you all what you could do/Soccer rocks!


Just what the world needs: A guitar-screeching ode to Watford.
