A 2-1 soccer score is the same as a 14-7 football score. A 14-7 football score is not that rare. A 3-0 soccer is the same as a 21-0 football and that definitely is not rare.

Don’t mention extra points in football to me. They are the closest thing to life to automatic, right next to taxes and death.

They told us the metric system makes more sense and is easier to understand.

Not sure that’s true.

The metric system is the only one you want to use if you are doing scientific calculations. I think in metric terms in the lab.

But I also think in English units in the kitchen and in furlongs on the race track. It is a matter of practice and education.

But I have no use for soccer. I wish it would go away.

I would rather clip my toenails than watch soccer. I don’t understand why other countries love it so much. Seems to me it’s just another reason to riot.
