Bare with me, I haven’t taken a ‘shot’ at soccer on this blog for a long time, but for old time’s sake here we go…
The article is by Gene Wojciechowski (of ESPN) on the arrival of David Beckham.
And I quote:
It’s not that I’m anti-soccer, I’m just anti-dull. To me, soccer is hockey on a Valium overdose, but with no glove dropping or board checking.
Yes, I’m aware it’s called “The Beautiful Game” — and I’m sure it is, much in the same way folding your laundry is “The Beautiful Chore.”
Happy reading …
