What’s the difference between soccer and tennis?

In tennis, the ball will actually make contact with the net.

I dozed off somewhere between world and cup. Anyway, I like mine black with a little sugar.

I predict 3 hours of sheer almost unrelenting boredom mixed with one or two minutes of interesting play.

Soccer = Rollerball.

It seems as though a sizable group of posters can't wait to waste their time telling everyone how boring, effeminate and anti-American they see soccer must be. Personally, I enjoy soccer but can find no socially redeeming value in watching a bunch of cars drive around a track while the fans wait for a wreck. But then that is just my opinion and I like to think that I have better things to do with my time than trashing NASCAR threads.

That said, the Germans seen to be the best team at the moment.

“World Cup Statistics and Predictions for the Final”

1. Someone will fall down pretending to be hurt.

2. There will be some ridiculous noise coming from the stands making the match unbearable to watch on tv with the mute button firmly mashed.

3. The final (finally) final will end 1 - 0.

4. There will be a riot of some kind.
