Bleating, blatting, droning things. Almost made the games unwatchable.
Now the crowds are singing this horrible, monotonous, droning song...over and over and over and over and over. I suppose I could mute the TV, but then I wouldn't know when something exciting happens.

Quote HistoryQuoted: so this is the 2nd World Cup you're watching, congrats. Not quite right. The first was in 1978 when Argentina hosted and won the Cup. The most memorable was in 1994 when I attended all the Orlando matches. I hope Florida gets to host games in 2026. |

So THAT'S how you know something exciting happened!
They tell you "That was exciting". I see now. |

I thought soccer was stupid until my son started playing. Now I like to watch.
I like to watch my son play the most though, because he makes the other kids on the field look bad  When he wants to, he will just take the ball break the other kids ankles and then just score. He has phenomenal ball control and great field vision. He passes the soccer ball like Pete Marivich passed the basketball |
