Heh - one of my favorite soccer quotes comes from an episode of 2
and a half men:
Jake: Can we watch the soccer game instead of basketball?
Charlie: What are you, nuts?
Jake: Sophie said soccer is the most popular game in the world.
Charlie: Good, they don't need us to watch it then.
I'd agree with that for sure. :-) Actually, I find *all* team
sports boring and don't understand the fascination or emotional
investment. Football, baseball, basketball, hockey, soccer,
whatever... They are all equally uninteresting - wake me up when its
over! :-P
