Huh? {#emotions_dlg.confused1} Soccer is a sport that has been around for a long time, even if not as popular here in the US. How do you make the connection than enjoying a sport makes someone uninformed, distracted, stupid and stoned? It seems you are the one that is uninformed, and I certainly am not stoned when I watch soccer. Don't paint everyone with generalizations just because you don't understand it.

It seems that Moonlady has a problem.

So it would seem. I love sports, mostly football and hockey. My least favorite would be basketball, but I don't accuse people that enjoy it of being stupid and stoned. Strange viewpoint for sure.

I may be remembering incorrectly but I thought Moonlady supported getting stoned on the MJ thread a few days ago.{#emotions_dlg.laugh} Are we being pranked?{#emotions_dlg.laugh}

I've been watching Wimbledon, since I'm not much of a soccer fan. However, I'll probably flip channels and check in on the match today periodically. Go USA!!!

Me too. Vamos Rafa!

Hmmmm, I missed that, but you might be correct. I don't care if people get stoned, as long as they aren't driving on the road with me. I don't partake because it makes me sick, but I like the aroma. Smiley Happy still doesn't make me stupid or uninformed when I watch a sport LOL! Smile

What is it....... a cup of coffee?

'More or less', 'Right or wrong', 'In general', and 'Just thinking out loud ' (as usual).

Clint Dempsey's story is amazing.

Grew up in a loving family with humble beginnings and a tragic story involving his sister...

Re: I guess I'm the only person in the world who doesn't care about the World Cup!

I appreciate that folks have a right be interested and excited, but I am not a fan in any sense. I just don't understand it. And I'm getting tired of the news, headlines, and Google Doodles.

When does it end?
