Awful World Cup Final

I did my best to watch the World Cup Final yesterday, but it was horrible. The Dutch came out aggressively in order to take Spain out of its regular ball control game, and a record yellow cards were awarded. Both sides blew most of their chances, until finally, Spain scored late in extra time with the Dutch down a man.

Admittedly, there have been Super Bowl games that were difficult to watch. However, I used to enjoy watching many of the big matchups in World Cup soccer. But, this year, as I watched, I often found myself turning the channel. The rest of the world can keep this game. It will NEVER catch on as a major sport here in the U.S. It will simply be something fun to see every four years like the Olympics.

For me, NHL playoff hockey will continue to reign supreme as the best sport to watch.

Just my two cents again.
