Soccer for Intellectuals

I don't know if I consider myself one of these, but it's undeniable soccer is big these days. While Jim Rome still mocks it, more and more, such nonsense comes across as trying to prove something, rather than being funny. In short, not many are listening. Especially when in the next sentence he starts talking about hockey. Come on, man, get real.

I'm thinking of ditching work tomorrow am to watch the US game. This is weird. I'd be willing to give up like 35+ dollars to watch the game - from an economic standpoint. This is irrational. This is World Cup fever.

I've been thinking about practicing new juggling moves. Something is wrong with me.
