I'm not saying I'm a super fan and you guys aren't, or that I hate all other sports, but I do find it strange... Trust me Hank. I would rather watch a football match. But some matches at this World Cup made me want to watch the Tour De France more. I'm with Buddha, thank f..k SBS has 2 channels now, when the WC and Tour De France were on simultaneously...it was great, the World Cup lacked sparkle this year, so I was happy to flick it over to the Tour to get some real action. (PS the 2 French birds giving you a kiss if you won say the Sprinters' jersey..mmm) Even Martin Tyler said on SBS the other night "when I got back heer to England, no-one who watched the WC on TV had a good thing to say about it." Bring on 2014 Brazil, and let's write off the last WC as a blip. I think that people are looking forward to the A-League and Euro Club Football now because the World Cup was poo. Even many playes worldwide seem pumped up for the club season. At least they won't have sh.tty horns to deal with.
