it's really lovely how i started a thread about football (soccer) and sharing something human between us - you know brother (sister) hood of (hu)man, and all that, and some of you guys just want to talk shit about each other over some of the most useless over - specific crap I've ever heard. I think I'm gonna change my sig in name to "waiting for the next cycle of mass extinction to put a cap in yo' ass"
(i don't include the xfl, cfl, discussion cos that's in keeping with the thread)
it is nice that some of you, however, seemed to have understood and said things like, while i don't like football, the parties are fun or the comparison with christmas (at their hearts they're both joyful expressions of humanity).
I can't even really tell what you guys are arguing about... (as usual)
veloxyll: It's like a powerful word, like Love or Genocide. The more you use it, the less powerful it becomes, the more commonplace, the more accustomed we are to it. If you're watching a game with hundreds of points - well, so what when someone scores. When you're watching football, a goal stops the motions of the planets. It changes everything in that context. Ok, before you guys go crazy about me comparing football to genocide, i'm not, i'm just saying that when you score less often, it means a lot more. I'm sure a lot of you can relate to that.
