You think 'spelt' is a word?

'Spelt' is a word. There is not such word as 'Spelled'. At least not in my dictionary.

Then, someone will die when a piece of cork becomes lodged in their heart, and you guys will do the same thing we've done.

I wouldnt degrade a topic on something that deals with death of a sportsman. Regardless of wether I like the sport or not.

I dont think many people in this topic actually understand football anyway, yet they seem to think they know alot about it.

For fuck sake, this is a topic about the death of a great player. Why go into detail on how "football/soccer sucks" blah blah.

I dont really care what anyone thinks, I love FOOTBALL (as it is known from the country of origin -england) as most other UK members do. Its the same as many US members love Baseball/NHL or NFL. We dont flame your national sports. FOOTBALL is probably one of the most played sports in the world (hence the fact it has a world cup, along with Rugby & Cricket, I dont see a baseball world cup?).

if you feel FOOTBALL sucks, then thats up to you, but most of you probably cant even explain the offside rule. FOOTBALL isnt about scoring tons of goals, its about commitment, stamina, defence, attack. The only time you see alot of goals is when a superb team meets a shit team, and there aint many shit teams around. Before you diss FOOTBALL, then why not go watch a saturday afternoon premiership game? The best league in the world? lets say over 500,000 fans and nearly half of the world agree with me. English football clubs have fans from Japan etc, just goes to show how big the sport is.

Anyway, back on topic, Foe was a great player, and didnt deserve to loose his life so early. Seems the final between France & Cameroon will go ahead though.

Ever been to the UK? Want to know how much people idolise one sport in particular? You have to see it to believe it.

Football (Soccer) is the sport that grips the nation every week. More people watch a football match on Sky Sports than watch the queens speech for example (like anyone watches them anyway). Its just something you grow into society, and it sticks. I personally love playing & watching sports.

Id give Tania some. Shes pretty nice imo.

Mind you, nobody has/will come close to Kate... She was unreal. Phoar.
