World Cup Made Funny

This makes me giggle.

I'm Starting To Get It!

Yet another magazine is doing its best to get me into this World Cup stuff. So, thank you US Weekly!

A Wee Bit Closer To Finding My World Cup Spirit

I really am trying to find my World Cup spirit! I looked for it on ESPN's website. This is what I found.

Highlights, scores, stats galore. BORING. And, maybe I'm just hungry, but for a second I thought that was a hamburger in the background. Just when I was questioning why that would be there, I realized it was one of the stadiums.


I tried that CNN/Sports Illustrated website.

More highlights, scores, stats. As exciting as a tied score. Sarcasm, folks. I would rather watch people flip a coin or draw cards/straws/pencils than see a game end in a tie. LAME-O.

Hoping Univision could enlighten me...

Hey! Highlights! Scores! Stats! Not even the promise of translation from Google Chrome could inspire me. Oh, and don't think I wasn't slightly amused by the number of mustaches going on in Latin-Land!


I even checked the official World Cup site.

Are you kidding me? It's no better than the other sites! Wait. I spotted a few extras.

OOOH! The President is on Twitter! And they have fan photos! Is that all? Who's designing these sites? 


Just when I was about to say, "Forget about this silly sport that lasts way too long and often results in a tie (still not a win in my book)!" I came across a site that has figured out how to make me a little more interested in soccer.


Interview magazine.

Yes! Finally coverage that speaks my language!!! More proof:

And because they understand photos aren't enough, they posted this video.


So, thanks, Interview! You have helped me get closer to finding my spirit! U-S-A! U-S-A! U-S-A!

World Cup Fever?

Truth: I don't understand soccer.


It's not because I don't want to. It's just that whenever I've watched it, I feel like there should be more scoring. It's like human Foosball - without the ball going in the little goal thingy.


When I do watch, I like the end - when the guys take off their shirts.

Yes. I said it. Every sexist word. I said it.


So, I think it's interesting when people drop everything or roll out of bed at sunrise to watch soccer. And by interesting, I mean, "What's wrong with you people?" It's not like if you miss a goal they won't reshow it again and again! Seriously, it could be the only scoring the entire game - they'll want you to see that!


Still, I'm looking for my World Cup spirit. It has to be in me, right? Like, YAY, AMERICA! But that silly Vuvuzela hasn't helped.

Even without that, I haven't given up on myself. I made this in hopes of getting into it. What do you think?
