Footy

[gerbie]

For the first time in ages I have been watching a whole game of football on tv. It must have been way over a year ago since the last time. Even though I love football, games on television bore me too much nowadays. Money has become so important, it affects the game. Therefore nowadays I prefer to play the game, read books about it, discuss the game in bars and on birthdays and play fantasy games. Tonight I made an exception, when my favorite team Ajax had to play a champions league qualifier. Perhaps I shouldn't have. They lost their home game 1-3. In two weeks time they have to go to Glascow to beat the Scottish champions by an even bigger margin. It doesn't look too well then. I guess that's me done for the season again.
