Now that the world cup is over, we can all agree that the game of football is not played with a round ball, and that the real gladiators of our generation wear pads, because they have to, although props is given to rugby, which I played, and got knocked senseless, yet scored three goals. If you disagree, Ray Lewis will be happy to knock the piss out of any soccer player in the world. Wayne Chrebet has had seven or so concussions, the last visibly knocking his eyes back into his head. Welcome back real football. BTW, If I had to choose a 2nd favorite sport to play, it's SOCCER. Make me watch it, I will start sh.. on fire too.
