Probably doesn't have seasons anyway.<br /><br />Moo!The Topiary Cowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04649189953257408994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-443336523425451069.post-25162495163096391732010-01-11T12:18:57.721-05:002010-01-11T12:18:57.721-05:00kat

I do not knock the skill involved in any sport, soccer is at times compelling as a scoring chance opens up and the skill used to make a score or stop one, sports as a whole can be overwhelming. maybe a change of the standard menu is what is needed. Thanks Kat.

I'm not a big sports fan...Very Well said, Ray.<br /><br />I'm not a big sports fan, by any means, but I do follow English Premier League soccer since my husband has it on our t.v. a good portion of each week. Some complain that it is boring and nothing more than a bunch of men taking dives to gain ground. Not so! It is a skilled, near-balletic performance on the pitch and with the World Cup imminent in South Africa, it is THE game to watch. Also, though teams are always disappointed most weeks, ultimately at the end of the season (which is highly regulated and sticks to the calendar) more than one team is successful—only 3 teams are relegated and 3 get to move up and try their chances. <br />May I suggest you give it a go?<br /><br />P.S. I recently saw a trailer for a little-known yet highly acclaimed film called, "Big Fan". It looks very good. Not your average U.S. football movie.<br /><br />KatKat Mortensenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16877694888419628533noreply@blogger.com
