I�m slowly getting over the hangover I have after drinking a few beers yesterday at a football (soccer) match. My team was in front (away from home) 1-2 until the 87th minute of the game. Then things went straight to hell and the other team scored two goals within 5 minutes and we lost the game. Fucking shitty game

Being a sports fan myself, I can really appreciate how you Europeans root for your favorite teams. We have our fanatics here too but no sports fanbase in America rivals the average European soccer (or football, whichever ![]() Obviously my experience with European sports is limited, but I was very impressed (to an extent) with how much the Turks care about their teams. I'm a big fan of women's basketball but I'm definitely in the minority around here, as most Americans are too busy with their stereotypes and close-mindedness to give the sport a chance. The reasons I like it (genuine, nice athletes, organizations who actually care about their fans, no media sniping like the men's league) are not really reasons why most other people in this country like sports, but I think Europeans think more like I do. This past winter I was watching a FIBA game between Fenerbahce and Galatasary; it was a Euroleague tournament game being held in Istanbul, and both of those teams are in Turkey, so obviously the arena was loaded with Turks. Leading up to the game there was a lot of discussion about how the two teams are huge rivals and the fans don't like each other at all, but I figured that just came with the territory. Wrong! Towards the end of the game there were people throwing firecrackers at each other inside the arena, and afterwards there were reports of dozens getting arrested after getting into fights and whatnot. Now this is a pretty extreme example (and I'm not saying that I wish fans of rival sports teams would try to blow up my house), but I thought it was cool how the fans in Turkey didn't care if guys or girls were playing or what sport it was, they were behind their club 100% no matter what. That was a breath of fresh air for me. |

^The passion is great, the violence which unfortunately often follows that burning passion is not so great. I attend football matches almost every weekend, and that feeling of standing united with the other fans of your team (young and old, men and women) is something really special I�ve never experienced anywhere else. Metal concerts sometimes come close but it�s not the same. I�ve often heard the comparison to going to church for the deeply religious.

Football is a gentleman's game played by thugs, Rugby is a thug's game played by gentleman.
In Rugby the referee is always called "Sir" in Football it is everything but. I was at my local rugby team's game just last Saturday. One of the opponent's broke his neck, as he left the field on a stretcher with a big smile on his face and with his thumbs up, he shouted "Don't you forget about me coz I'll be back for the return" A true man's sport, no football girls in this game ![]() |

Watching Italy - Denmark in TV. It�s 2-1, but Italy has just been reduced to 10 players after Osvaldo received a red card shortly into the second half. I hope it�ll turn things around for us. We need a victory or at least a draw in the qualification for the World Championship.

I got caught up in a Youtube chain of old TV shows I remember from my childhood. Those kids educational type shows often hosted by people wearing brightly coloured tracksuits and who sung plenty of songs. Ridiculous mascots and puppets were often included.

Drinking a 40 oz. of Steel Reserve(tastes like crap, but the alcohol content is all that matters[8.1% abv]) whilst listening to some tunes(The Flaming Lips atm)...nothing too special just another day of relaxing(and affording the alcohol, when I can).
