Oh, the horror!

Well, it seems a man who is quite good at kicking a ball has been injured, and so a nation grinds to a collective halt. What is it with our football / soccer obsession? Absolutely ridiculous.

While I'm on the subject (kind of) there was a fun debate on Reddit some months ago explaining football and the differing views on the name between Americans and Brits. Football for example involves a foot and a ball, whereas the American football involves a hand and an egg: Handegg.

What amused me most was cricket: Stickballstickglove or something like that. Nobody ever really got to grips with what cricket actually is. The answer of course is simple: God's Chosen Game, at least according to Dr Grace.

Anyway, on a more important note, 7TeV collisions have taken place somewhere under Switzerland and we're all still alive, which is nice.

Sorry, couldn't resist.
