World Cup Fever. Don't Catch It.

So we got two finalists. Ample time for petit moi to jump on the football bandwagon!

I always thought Germany would get to the finals, unless they met Brazil on the way there, but I guess it just wasn't meant to be.

As for France, I thought they were down for the count until they beat Spain. Then, after beating Brazil, there was little doubt in my mind they'd make it the finals. Don't get me wrong, I was definitely rooting for Portugal in the semifinals. We all love the underdogs.

Also, as for football being the world's sport, looks more like it's Europe's sport, after both Argentina and Brazil getting the boot in the quarter finals.

So, for the finals. I'm rooting for France. No particular reason why, other than to stick it to all the France bashers out there.
And then I can go back to not caring about football for another four years. Or two, the Eurocup is coming up...
