You are probably asking, what the heck are these two subjects in the same heading for a post? Darn good question. I had lunch with a football (soccer) buddy of mine today and we were talking about how great Wikipedia is. Mike says "I want to do a 6 degrees of separation experiment with Wikipedia to see if I can go from one thing to something else in 6 mouse clicks or less." How we landed on Crusades to Columbus Crew I don't know but it clearly has footy origins.
Anyway, after lunch I tried to see if I could perform this seemingly impossible task and well, it's not that impossible. Not only did I perform this minor miracle in 6 mouse clicks I actually did it in 5. Here is the path I followed so if you want to check my work, go for it! Believe it or not the following links are on the respective Wikipedia pages.
Crusades to Western Europe
Western Europe to United States
United States to Sports in America
Sports in America to Major League Soccer
Major League Soccer to Columbus Crew
