The World Cup is coming to an end in a few days and I won’t know what to do with myself when it’s over. Sure the Premiership starts soon but nothing can really replace that level of excitement. I’ve been watching the World Cup since 1998 and even though I did not shed a tear by far this has been the most exciting tournament.
It won’t be long until I’m blessed with Sir Ian Darke’s colorful commentary on football’s biggest stage. Yes, the World Cup is right around the corner and the advertiser campaigns are rolling out!
Once I make a decision I’m pretty much set in my ways and there’s nothing that you can tell me to think otherwise. The summer of 2013 I decided that I must attend the World Cup in Rio. A few people tried to dissuade and tell me to skip out on this because of the political unrest in Brazil. These days it seems like every nation is going through some sort of unrest but people still travel.
Football and cricket were the only sports that was played in my house growing up. I didn’t care for cricket so needless to say football(soccer) is my favorite sport ever. Even though I follow teams throughout the year, the World Cup is the only time where I can say that I get maniac crazy for the sport. It’s the only event that truly brings out the the good, the bad and the ugly. I even shed tears and as many of you know I don’t cry at all.
