soccer

What's the deal with soccer? Since when is everyone in love with soccer? I know a handful of people who follow soccer throughout the whole season, but all of a sudden, the World Cup happens and everyone's a fan? Normally I wouldn't really have noticed this, but the fact that so many people's status updates on facebook reflect what's going on in the games has me keenly aware.

Where did all these fans come from? Have they been fans for years and I was just never aware of it? I don't think so. Even the most obscure people who have never cared about sports in their lives have posted about soccer. I guess people will just jump on the bandwagon of anything.

That's the thing about certain people, they can never just do their own thing. If you like something, great, but it doesn't mean that I have to like it also. And I won't. I refuse to change what I feel about something in order to appease other people, or to try to get multiple facebook comments. It just doesn't appeal to me.
