Well, there is that. I was happy to see a couple days ago that Serina is trying to make a comeback. | |||

Soccer, every bit as exciting as competitive paint drying. "Do not approach a bull from the front, a horse from the rear, or a fool from any direction." John Deacon, Author I asked myself if I was crazy, and we all said no. | |||

I'm with ya', brother. Watching paint dry is more exciting than soccer (or football to the unwashed). Edit: Guess I should have read the post above mine. | |||

I feel that way about most any sport on TV, though nothing against those that like them. | |||

It just started today and I’ve already grown tired of hearing about it. I have dear friends that love the game and have even played the game at a high level but I just cannot get into the game. I don’t watch much of any sports nowadays but I find soccer particularly dis interesting. “It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.” | |||

Sports were meant to be fun. Nowadays the salaries, hype, expense, and celebrity opinions have ruined much of it. This certainly includes soccer. ------------------ The plural of anecdote is not data. -Frank Kotsonis | |||

I watched a little, maybe 5 minutes, ping pong on TV a few days ago. I won’t be devoting that much time to the World Cup. In fact, this post is all the attention I’ll have devoted to it. Two days ago while driving through Atlanta, GA, my son and I saw a sign over the roadway that said something about expecting additional traffic for a week or so due to a sporting event and I wondered out loud what sporting event could screw up traffic in Atlanta? Fortunately, yesterday’s drive through the Elk Capital of Michigan, Atlanta, was completely uneventful except for the two cars when I arrived at the four-way stop that were trying to figure out who goes first. The locals call it Spaghetti Junction. | |||

Friend is going to Toronto, cheapest tickets he could get were $1000. Said they were face value 600 ea. and taxes fees etc. Don’t know how “3rd world sports” can demand such insane prices. | |||

Less than zero interest. Never liked soccer, never liked the characterization as "football" which it is not. | |||

I care just enough about the World Cup, soccer or almost any other sport to write this post about how I don't care about them. | |||
