If my brain dumps its information about soccer, half my brain would pop out. And that GOOOOAL thing is only in Germany, Holland, the Middle-East and a little more.

And it doesn't always to be a black and white ball 0.o. Even the sewn pattern can be changed, the aerodynamics... not that I'm a big fan, but soccer is one of the most popular sport around here.
No one can go back and change a bad beginning; but anyone can start now and create a successful ending.
If a problem can be solved, no need to worry about it. If it cannot be solved what is the use of worrying?

And the funny thing... is that we don't call it soccer but we call it football XD

In typing my above post, I had to edit out the words 'football' to 'soccer'.

The worst... is that most people would cheer the English football (um... soccer) teams, even if the country's team is playing against the former. ::) Go figure

Only the Americans and Australians don't call it football.
Personally I prefer rugby.

 I don't know much about rugby either. I think you have to kick the ball through a goal post thing to score points, but I'm not very sure.

 Oh, I thought you had to run to a certain spot and kick it through a goal post, kind of like field goals in football. That's what I heard, but I wasn't sure if it was true.
