Topic: Mysteries of Life
And a hearty good riddance to men in short pants running around for ninety minutes, chasing a ball for usually no discernable reason. The game every other country is mad over, and the game which churns out more stories of people burning their houses down because they paid rapt attention to some goofy match between Chad and the Azores, more stories of husbands killing their wives for making too much noise when a general overkill in boring stories about english soccer fans this or german soccer fans that. Oh sure, the whole thing is still going on and craptastic stories of shocking soccer stupidity will continue but at least we won't have to listen about how the US can get to the next round if only they beat Botswana and Nigeria beats Alsace-Lorraine. So pick up the phone to tell it to the three people who give a crap and let the rest of us hear stories of genunine interest or import. Like when the heck is football season going to start?
