Never liked that game. Maybe 3 times have played in sporting class on groundschooltime -stupid teacher panned.. I really disliked it... I'm too individualistic for that game. can't play with team.. I believe, most estonians have that fault. Everyone is for own.. I forgot for witch team I play.
Fortunately I don't have lot of friends around of me, who annoy me with footpall, but there is nothing to watch on tv. and that's catastrophe.

at my place: man, people are so immersed, so am i.
The game is so addictive that, im not able to carry forward my routine. The impact is unlimited, this morning I had exam, yet I just decided to keep a track of those matches. It’s no different at workstation; older LCD’s & tv’s are replaced by new once. The scheduled meet are ether postponed or proponed, people getting crazy……hahaha

I had my exam already this morning either! Do you watch it just because you can't help watching it or your team plays? What country do you represent here? :Dcyborg wrote:at my place: man, people are so immersed, so am i.

Sorry of Japanese, who must wake something about 4:00 morning to watch it.. One of my Japanese friend was worried already about weeks before. If she can wake for those games or not. Weird... I was sure, that only men are crazy about footpall.
Maybe if Estonian team was qualified, to worldcup, I would little interested too.. but to stay awake to see it?! My sleep is more worth than a game.

I haven't watched spanish channels though yesterday while france was playing against Togo russian sport reporter was sitting next to (I bet) his spanish collegues! When Henry stroke second goal our reporter kept silent while somewhere from the background spanish ones were yelling gooooooooooooal for 15 seconds I guess! They are times more active during the match! :oLennyeTran wrote: I've been watching the Spanish channels (you should, too), and I love how the sport reporter keeps yelling Gooooooooooooooooooool! and perfectamente legal.

If you are so amazed with that thing you have to hear them during the year (the Spanish League) because they do the same!!! In fact, there are a lot of Spanish people that watch the football match on TV without voice and put the radio on to hear the radio reporters voice, specially the program "El carrusel deportivo" of the Ser channel, they are very, very, very enthusiastic!!!!
