The problem with soccer, redux

When I started this website more than four years ago, I got some traffic around the World Cup. I love the World Cup because it’s pitched athletic competition of the highest order, with all my kumbaya stuff thrown in; and I am proudly uninformed about soccer. So to resume an old theme: We’ve now had seven matches. Total of nine goals. At least one on a penalty kick, one a gift. I’ve seen maybe two inspired goals in about five hours of soccer-watching so far (the Gerrard English goal, the Argentinian). Nine goals in 10-1/2 hours of play. Sorry folks but this is a problem.
