Re: F...26.2 Stickers

Another offender, those giant softball and soccer ball magnets. I find most soccer fans to be jerks, always pushing their "game" and insisting that we should all embrace soccer. They accuse us of not "understanding the nuances of the game" and even make anti-American comments while living here themselves. No...I played soccer as a kid and was quite good. I just can't watch a game and stay awake. It's a fine game for kids. My son will be playing next year most likely at age 4. However, as an adult, if my kid is not playing I can't stand to watch a 0-0 barnburner after 90 minutes of play. It's not like a good hockey game or defensive struggle in REAL football, the field is far too big and most of the time in a soccer game is spent kicking the ball long onto the other end of the field...the players run to get it or the goalie ROLLS the ball to a teammate. Then they kick the ball to the other end of the field and all run to that end. Very few shots on goal and even fewer that have a chance of going in the net. Yawn. I get the game. It's just lame. Don't be so defensive about it. I have a co-worker who has several soccer flags hanging up (3' x 5') and even wears soccer jerseys to work sometimes...how professional. Like I said...always advertising. She was "shocked" that I told her I wasn't watching the World Cup when she asked who I wanted to win. If I were to watch, I'd root for our team...not Spain like her. No national pride... Also, it seems that one of every three Pennsylvanians have not only visited the Outer Banks, NC, but bought the SAME sticker! (OBX) That reminds me of something I see occasionally...guys driving cars with something like this on it:
