Showing Original Post only (View all)The World Cup has won me over. [View all]
A couple of weeks ago some of you may remember my dislike of soccer, well, after watching some matches I am now a fan of soccer. Me from a couple of weeks ago would of been saying "WHAT?" But now I realize that soccer is pretty entertaining and the world cup is so amazing with all these countries celebrating one sport. I just wish that I was a fan when the US was still in. And to all those people that were celebrating the US's win. I'm sorry.
