Its not football....Its WORLDCUP

Cus it didn’t happen then…but only now…when WORLD CUP is on…..

You know if you guys ever work where I earn my living, I bet ya'll one thing. It can turn a non freak into one. Yup, you see I wasn't really a football fan. If anything I was a badminton fan and even that has long gone. But where I work, I am surrounded by colleagues and customers who are hardcore football fans. Further more, boring work, 42" plasma with football matches all day long.Yup, blending into this I can only expect one thing; that I too will soon join their club.

True enough at this very moment, I am amazed at my own talent on how I am able to talk about football with everyone and make them stick to their seat listening to my analysis. Honestly, I still do not enjoy footbal.. I mean I am just not all crazy about it, but then again I am able to give some valid and constructive run down. Just to add to it, so far all my predictions even came true. I bet anyone can predict the outcome of the match, but for non football fan like me, to predict the exact score just made me famous. Its like all those bloody gamblers want to listen to my wise predictions. Jack it of people; I aint no fortune teller. I gladly admit that it was luck so far. All this in less than a year of exposure. God I'm good...Hahahaha...

All the talk about how football unites people, everyone talks about it...bla..bla...bla ads...I thought its ridiculous but was I wrong. I mean football did really got the world talking. I have few colleagues that we barely met eyes; not to mention smiled or even exchanged few words unless anything official. But was I suprised when all thise people all in a sudden are my best friends. I mean all in a sudden all of them are talking with me about football. And to know that I am able to chat with some of them who once I regarded as snobbish just proved my whole labelling went wrong. Whaddya know?? They are friendly and chatty after all...

So I guess football does hold an impact towards the entire world. It makes people react differently...Sometimes I wonder all this war about peace... Why can't we just use football to create that peace... I mean everyone loves it....And usually the one that holds the biggest influence over people can get people to do anything...So my crazy idea is saying football has the biggest influence since like forever...Why not we ask football to lead the world...Hahahaha....Crazy me out....

Can you hear it...echoes of the realmz....
