Soccer World Cup

I don't like soccer and I have zero interest in the current World Cup.

So, why this morning when I was watching the news and saw the footage of our last minute goal (which gave us a draw, not even an out & out victory), did I find myself grinning like an idiot & then feeling a bit teary when they were interviewing the guys who got the goals father & other actual fans?!?!?!

On the positive side, if I ever get a trivia question asking what a vuvuzela is I now know it is a traditional South African horn which makes a buzzing sound.

Funny post - I don't really care either but did stay up to watch just because it is a historic event... AND I was still watching when NZ scored that goal.

Well I'm a bit slow, couldn't work out the excitement over a draw until my man told me we had never got this far before! But think I will stick to rugby...

I'm a bit the same Tracy - my favourite part of any sport is watching the team camaraderie when there's a win!

I also have ZERO interest in the soccer! And I watched the try on the news and still didn't care! Obviously I'm not into sports eh? lol
