I was going to root for Spain in the World Cup this year. (A change from always rooting for Brazil.) Looks like the greatest chokers in World Cup history decide get an early start on sucking and choking. Losing to Switzerland? For fuck's sake...
I guess it is some sort of portent for when Spain's creditors start shutting down the Spanish economy in a year or two.
Once more, the wisdom of never betting on matches is illuminated to me.
Argh! I was rooting for Spain too (for a number of years now, actually.) If this loss does not wake them up, I dunno what will.
ReplyDelete...But I'm a sucker for underachieving chokers, so I'll probably still root for them in 2014. Lol!
This entire World Cup stinks. Not only are the elite teams shockingly bad (Brazil was lethargic, Italy slow, Spain bewildered and France non-existent), but watching the matches are like watching paint dry while gigantic bees buzz overhead.
