The Drug Is Football + Tumblr = Side Blog

When I first started The Drug Is Football I intended it to be about more than just The New England Revolution.  I wanted to talk about the style, the films, the music and all manner of things that are part of the bigger culture of what happens outside the stadiums and in the life of the supporter.  There is a subculture around the game, for many it is just the fact that they are a soccer supporter in the US.  Elsewhere the subculture of the soccer supporter revolves around many other things.  It is a way of life.

I've started a TDIF Tumblr, and it will be short on commentary but heavy on visuals, a picture is worth a thousand words after all.  As of right now it may just be a collection of random pictures that may or may not make sense to you. Over time I hope that it will make sense and I hope to use it as inspiration for new posts here along the lines of my original vision.  For those of you that enjoy our music related posts, don't worry they aren't going anywhere.  For those that are interested in exploring the 'subculture' part of 'Fine Purveyors of Soccer and Subculture' visit us here.

Made In New England

Well when we started this blog we also were focusing on clothing and doing the occasional style post or post about fancy new kicks... we haven't done much of that recently, but we still want to even if no one really cares (we never intended to be solely about the revs and soccer anyways).  So with that we bring back someof our style end of things.  We recently came across a Tumblr called Fuck Yeah Made In The USA, being people who believe in supporting your local, we like this. They also have come up with The American List... go support and American brand. Go check them out and we've borrowed some videos from them that focus on New England... enjoy.
