I am not a fan of football, too violent for my taste. But I have been checking out the status of the matches from the Quarter finals stage of this years FIFA World Cup. I cannot watch them because it is too late for me by then and I was not sure if I will be able to watch the whole game either. But I decided that if Argentina makes it to the Finals, I will definitely watch the game. Honestly, even though I don’t know anything about the teams or their strengths or weaknesses, I was a little upset when Spain lost and thought that the finals would be between Brazil and Argentina. Now that Argentina is there, I am gonna watch the match, especially for Messi even if I have to set an alarm to get up in the middle of the night (or the next day morning) for the game. I hope it is worth the effort. Go Messi!
When we were in Barcelona, on the request of an acquaintance we got him a FC Barcelona T Shirt with the name Messi and number 10 written on it for almost 80 Euros from the Barcelona’s FC official shop. At that time, I thought he was crazy to buy a T Shirt with the name for that cost (apply the conversion rate and its a huge amount for a T Shirt) and that too from Barcelona. With the images and videos that I see during this World Cup, now I think he is just a kid and his action was very mellowed. All he wanted was a T Shirt.
Well, let me see how the final match goes. All I hope is that I don’t wake up my neighbors with my over enthusiasm that I usually have during these intense games. And if you are there, try not to sit too close to me. My punches can be a little painful.
I’m cheering for Germany. They’ve been the best team so far. And the Argentinians have been absolutely boring. Like Messi though.

No, you don’t care. And you don’t have to. That is the beauty of sports. Messi deserves a world cup; the rest of his teammates don’t. lol
