There's no other international competition that evokes the same passion and intensity as the World Cup, each competition is wildly different and you can never write a team off. Just wish Scotland could actually qualify for one, I was too young to really remember 98.
lol the Super Bowl is pretty much why I don't watch any American sport. There is just far too much silliness involved, ads and so on.

It's a shame for Wales and Scotland, Scotland used to be decent as well, sometimes I reckon there should be a British team but it'd never happen. And even Olympic football, nobody is arsed other than the South Americans really. Were Scottish people behind the British team for that? Always got the impression that they consider themselves Scottish not British and only English people cared lol.
