The cherished #1 guy in the UK, David Beckham, returned yesterday for a England vs France football match (I have been in the UK long enough now where I don’t even know what soccer is anymore). I watched it in a pub with a bunch of other Brits and gotta say…it’s still that same sport that I’m not interested in even if Beckham is playing.
Summary of the game:
90 minutes. 1 score. Beckham. Ale.
That 1 score was on a penalty kick, which is where it’s 1 on 1. One kicker, one goalie. It’s the ultimate show down. Mano a Mano. Yes, most of the times, the kicker wins but it is the most exciting part of the game. It’s where everybody in the pub is watching and awaiting the result. The London Ninja recommendation for the sport of football is to go All Penalty Kicks. It would do wonders in gaining international traction. And by international, I mean America.
We need to just have kickoffs. One penalty kick after another. It would make the game not so boring. I will start this professional league once I get over the fact that I don’t like football that you play with your feet.
