The Hook has zero interest in soccer, much less the 2012 European Championship.
So you can imagine what the last few days have been like for me.

Did I mention I work with a lot – to say the least – of Italians?
Yes, life is great when you’re surrounded by Alpha males and you have zero interest in sports…

I love soccer, and I love Buffon!
You’re cooler than The Hook, Jennifer! Good for you!
Meh. You get used to marching to the tune of your own drum!!! I think of it like this. You get to entertain us with all the folks on the bandwagon. This is so much more fun!!! Well for me at least.
You’re my target audience, Woman!
I would just smile at them and back away slowly when they start talking about that… that is my new work strategy
Sounds good to me!

- Oooh, that can’t be pretty. Your work must have got a lot less painful though after d’Azzuri penalty kick-ed Steven Gerrard’s boys out last evening. :`-(
I’ve got mixed European kith and kin, but I’m a Deutschland fraulein when it comes to footie.
Uh oh. You fell asleep reading this alpha (fe)male sports drivel.

P.S.: Hook, your pain will end next Sunday. Well, that’s if them (darned) Italians take it all. Hmph. If not, brace yourself.
At least I have something to look forward to….
You’ve probably heard more than you want to hear about the European Championships, huh? Well, they will be over soon. But not soon enough, I’m sure. I’m so sorry. On another note, ComiCon San Antonio was held this weekend and was a bog event here. I didn’t go, not being a big comic fan but it got a lot of play on the TV news.
Comic Cons rock! Thanks for sharing!
If soccer isn’t your thing I feel for you. I’m a huge fan of soccer myself so I am in heaven. Hang in there Hook…next you will have to suffer through the Olympics…then the next season will start…it never stops. Never. Soon it will be the next world cup. I’m not helping you, so I’ll shut up now.
NEVER shut up, my friend!
Just look invisible. It’ll be over soon.(watch out for those overly emotional fans…especially if you nod politely and smile with one group and the other group notices…..careful, Hook – it’s a tightrope!)
Thanks for the advice!
