And to all you soccer haters...
Notice before EVERY international match, they play the anthems, and all the players are standing and singing along.
The pre-game ceremonies of soccer are fine. It’s just the game itself that is so boring. And the continuous droning crowd noise on the TV is probably worse than those poor State Department spookocrats had to endure in Havana.
‘and all the players are standing and singing along.’
they could line up and receive communion, and I’d still hate soccer...
