Soccer

Having recently spent a few weeks in South Africa where soccer fever was in the air as they planned for the world cup, I tried to follow it the last few weeks. It's hard, however, to get excited about a 1-1 tie.
I think Bucky* sums it up best when told most people in the world follow soccer.

"I can only assume then, that most people in the world are employed as professional paint-drying monitors and watch soccer to wind down after a hard days work"
