A simple message...to those soccer fans who need to hear it.

Mother Theresa of Calcutta was on a mission of service. Many many people visited, and many of those visitors asked if they could stay there and join her in her mission.

Her typical answer was no. No, you may not come from wherever you are now and join me here. If you want to be of service, go back to where you came from and find your own Calcutta.

I won't insult your intelligence by making the message obvious as it relates to soccer. If you are reading this, you are smart enough to figure it out.

I guess I'm too stupid.

I understand (had to read it twice) and I totally agree with you. But these kind of people will always be.

I wish people would stop sniffing my jock too. It's really annoying when I'm on the can.

I wish more people would post in this thread so that I could deduce from context what it is that Viking64 wants from me.

What is that? 7 references to your wee-wee?

Well so far we have Mother Theresa on the can somewhere in the Calcutta area.

Take from that what you will...

If you are at the office, try not to laugh out loud.

Mother Theresa was the Champions League of do-gooders.

[BrianCappellieri]

Shouldn't that be the World Cup of do-gooders?

I believe he is suggesting people should support their local teams and not search outside of their own country for other teams to support.

If so, my opinion is yes, support your local team. Go to games. Buy T-shirts. Cheer. But I also happen to think that it's impossible to always prevent becoming infatuated with an exotic team from another culture, and that's okay. However, if you abandon your local team completely for that other team, that's not a good thing.
