I really tried to watch soccer today.
Seriously, I really made an effort. I really, really did.
So many of my employees are talking about the World Cup right now, I really tried.
I wanted to try to get into this World Cup event desperately.
But I just can't.
I watched about 20 min of the game yesterday - England and USA.
I thought that game might hold some interest for me.
Something like Paraguay or Cameroon or Peru or Egypt or Korea or whatever just doesn't make me care.
But it didn't.
It was so boring.
I guess I simply don't understand what is so great about soccer.
I guess I'm North American and I need action. Hockey, football, lacrosse, etc.
I guess I just don't get it.
Soccer seems so slow.
All the players diving and acting hurt annoys me.
All the arguing with the ref - I mean every whistle some player is almost crying and whining at the ref.
And what the hell is with that annoying buzzing noise during the game? Is that normal from fans? I'm assuming it's horns or something.
I don't understand the need of people here in Canada to fly other countries flags on their cars and homes and care so deeply about a country that they weren't even born in and/or their ancestors ran kicking and screaming from ages ago because it was so bad there. Shouldn't you cheer for Canada when they try to get in it?
I really did try. Honestly.
