My Football and Fifa Feelings

What is FIFA? I google to see
because football means nothing to me.
Whether football from here
or world soccer, it’s clear
facts and figures from me there won’t be.

My apologies to the contest sponsor!!

Andrea, no apologies necessary :) The contest had a nice cross-section of absolute fans, those who can take it or leave it, and those to whom "football means nothing." What a brilliant limerick! Your limerick means something to me ;) Thank you for your support, and congratulations on your podium finish!

Lol! I know nothing about soccer either. I’m out of breath just watching them running around kicking a ball for hours.

You did a good job for the contest, Andrea. A Limerick was a good choice of form. :-) Bill

Try watching a game. It may be slow compared to American football, but watch the exuberance on players faces. I love the enthusiasm and spirit. I don't care about nationality.

Football is life and death. For the life of me, I don't know why I picked Japan over Sweden. Betting will be the death of me.
