The incomparable Uli Hesse-Lichtenberger (and yes, I did just use the word incomparable) has a great piece up at Soccernet, where he talks about ill-informed soccer fans and their ill-informed opinions on who is and isn't the best goalkeeper in Germany right now.
You could replace "soccer" with "any given sport", "goalkeeper" with "any given position" and "Germany" with "any given country", and you'd have a perfectly good sports story for any given newspaper.
