Solving World Cup Apathy(?)
I recently wrote about my feelings of apathy toward the World Cup. I feel like I have partially solved that by watching broadcasts of games in other languages including Spanish and another one that I can't identify for sure but seems like it might be Arabic? In the case of the former, it gives me a chance to dust off my very rusty Spanish skills and in the case of the latter I have no idea at all what the announcers are saying, but they're really, really excited. Possibly even more excited than the Mexican announcers. And for what it's worth, the excitement is pretty infectious. You don't even have to speak the language to sense that the announcers are getting super pumped up by the idea of Schweinsteiger coming into the game even if its for no other reason that they're filled with glee over the fact that they get to say his name over and over again. Or maybe he's like Beetlejuice and you have to say his name 3 times to get him to appear on the pitch?
SCHWEINSTEIGER!
SCHWEINSTEIGER!!
SCHWEINSTEIGER!!!
Go ahead, make my millennium.
