I'll bet this World Cup will have higher ratings......and why I hate soccer

A minute and a half and you get to see all the scoring.



Final score: U.S.A. Nil + 1, England Nil + 1.

And they left in the VUVUZELAS, which I love!!!!

SERIOUSLY, WHO DOESN'T LOVE THIS???

Oh, like we're any better over here in the States with our goofy thundersticks?

Or our annoying Cowbells? Right St Pete.?

Or how about those idiots that go to Little League games with jugs filled with coins and shake them all game long? If ever there is a case for justifiable homicide at a LL game, this is it. There's actually a site that shows you how to make these and other noisemakers.

I mean, how much of a retard do you have to be to need instructions to fill a 2-liter jug with coins and shake repeatedly?

THE HARD PART FOR MOST OF THE ROCKET SCIENTISTS MUST BE SQUEEZING ENOUGH COIN OUT OF THEIR PAYCHECKS TO FILL THE JUGS ENOUGH TO BUG THE CRAP OUT OF DECENT FOLKS WHO JUST WANT TO WATCH THEIR KIDS PLAY BASEBALL (OR SOFTBALL FOR THE YOUNG LADIES) IN PEACE!!!

Oh, you gotta love them.

So let's leave South Africa alone and let them enjoy their moment in the international spotlight for just a few minutes, PLEASE!!

Anyway, getting back to why I hate soccer.

I just can't get over the memory of the Monty Python skit where the sportscaster is reading the evening's soccer...er, football scores.

Yorskhire Nil, Worchtershire Nil.

Blackpool Nil, Liverpool Nil.

Man City Nil, Man United Nil.

Arsenal Nil, Chelsea Nil.

Sorry, but here across the pond, we play on to victory. To Sudden Death if necessary. We like our opponents beaten, not tied. And we like scoring, we like it a lot actually.

Pity, I couldn't find that skit. IT WAS A CLASSIC.

Speaking of which, without a doubt the most exciting football match (soccer, really) ever witnessed. Also courtesy of the Monty Python crew. Funny chaps.

It's only 3 1/2 minutes long, what have you got to lose, really? And don't act like you were sitting there splitting atoms, or researching a cure for cancer. You're on my blog.

GERMANY VS. GREECE - PHILOSOPHY FOOTBALL ( SOCCER, REALLY ) FROM MONTY PYTHON



CLASSIC!!!!

I TELL YA' I HATE SOCCER, EXCEPT FOR THESE TWO EXAMPLES
