This Is ALL You Get...
8 Jun 2006 23:59One entry, and one entry ONLY, about the "World Cup"...
And no, it's NOT because Scotland aren't in it. It's because the freaking English will never shut up about 1966 when this competition comes around. In approximately the same period in history, both the New York Jets and the Kansas City Chiefs won their first, and ONLY, Superbowl - each year, do you hear them ranting on about how they're destined to win because of their historical successes?
No, you don't, not even when it's a notable anniversary of the game in question.
And don't get me started about "that foot". The boy will be rushed back into service, and will last fifteen minutes at best, before his foot fails again, his career comes crashing down, and England get knocked out on the same day. The recriminations will start earthquakes...
That'd almost as hilarious as seeing the United States win.
You can but hope, I suppose.
Meanwhile... The Prison Break season finale - ye gods! Loving it.
I.
DON'T.
CARE.
DON'T.
CARE.
