"Uh huh. What a perfect ending to the, so called, biggest event in all of sports. Honestly could it have gone any other way? Thirty freaking days, something like 700 matches, about 20 goals total, countless orange wedges hammered, thousands of gallons of capri sun pounded, 200 injuries - about 4 of them legit - and for what? 120 minutes of the final and some arbitrary additional time and a shootout to decide the champion. Thats how you decide your once-every-4-year worldwide debacle...with a shootout? Why dont you just go ro sham bo or pick straws? I had to endure a month of this nonsense all so you guys could go to penalty kicks to settle it? SWEET! Couldnt you have just started there? Hey, remind me to lob a phone call to Bud Selig today. When all thirty big league teams are done playing a 162 each, lets just bag the World Series. I mean, who in America wouldnt be just as satisfied if instead of playing game 7 of the world classic, we just decided to flip a coin to decide the champion. Nothing like wasting the whole worlds time for an entire month only to determine the world champion by which goalie can guess more times out of five than the other. Oh and good luck to Dwayne Wade and Shaq O'Neal in defending the NBA title next year. Maybe instead of a game seven of the finals, they can go with a round of horse or a slam dunk contest. Italy winning a world cup on penalty kicks: brilliant! And to your next point soccer fan that I just dont get it, you're right and after this debacle, I never will."
