That pie chart is so accurate. :D I do think passing the ball requires a lot of skills, though. Spain did it beautifully so I am happy that they won.

Have you heard of the term “diving”? I love using it to refer to all the acting. It’s called the same thing in Chinese so I kind of feel warmed up to it. :P It’s gotten worse by each year, and to be honest, the US NT is one of the few teams which didn’t do it so much. If they made it any further they could have won the Fair Play award. XD

I’d say there’s quite a bit of acting in the football world, both literally (they get cast in films every now and then) and for the magazines. Performing for the camera gets your name out there, though it’s slowly moving towards having a wife who loves the camera is what will make you more famous.

I watched maybe 5 minutes of the World Cup total and have no idea what went on, but ¡VIVA ESPAÑA! and I really want a vuvuzela :P

Well, after the US got knocked out I started backing Germany. Since Spain knocked Germany out, I’m going for the Oranje in the final :D
