Hey, baby...at least you can get sports beamed directly into your head where the players are human, just man, flesh, a thin shirt, turf, and the ball. Real replacement for gladatorial battle.

You ever watched american 'football'? You know, the PUSSY shit with 50 lbs of padding and 2 bit morons that know they won't be able to move by age 30? Where no one seems to bother wondering why it's "football" when they spend most of their time catching and throwing it? It obviously eats IQ points on a subcutaneous level-GUH. And as if that being perpetually transmitted 24/7 for 1/2 the year isn't enough, then we get bsaeball...and GOLF! YAY!

Give me a whole station of REAL football any old day...just enough of your brain is used to be able to keep it alive, but you don't come out of it feeling like you're too dirty to ever set foot in a library again. Cheers!

A lot less distance in this piece than in the rest of what I've read from you. Very thought-to-thought. Flows nicely.

Jack Charlton brought the kick-and-rush game to the Irish International squad along with a bit of talent-spotting ability, and it got us to the World Cup. It seems we've since graduated to "total football" but it remains to be seen if anything useful comes of it.

What was the quote? Something like: "Football [soccer for you yanks] is a game for gentlemen, played by thugs. Whereas Rugby is a game for thugs, played by gentlemen...
