The World Cup has already started and I haven't watched a single game. The difference in time zone is really bumming me out. I got to watch games of the 2006 World Cup and the 2008 Euro Cup live and absolutely surrounded by some serious fans. I can't call myself a football fanatic, but I do enjoy getting caught up in the moment. I could get my act together and head to a local bar/pub to catch a game, but if I'm honest, I like sitting or standing outdoors and watching the game on temporary big screens. While I can watch other sports - well, figure skating - alone, football is a more convivial sport. Again, the time zone doesn't bode well for this dilemma. I really hope that I can catch at least one game of the cup. Maybe I'll get more involved once the group round is done. I clearly don't know enough to root for one team. I'll probably just root for whichever team whomever I'm watching the game with is rooting for.
Also, I still remember watching Zidane head-butt Materazzi. It was crazy.
