I can't forget what Gallagher said about soccer: "Any sport that involves intentional contact between the ball and your head is dumb."
(Off Topic:In the corner of the cartoon page, I notice our good friends with the USFS and the Lib-council using Bambi to team up with Smokey to prevent forest fires.
Prescribed fire is good for deer, even the non-native red deer.
Not necessarily anti-hunting, just stupid.Hard to believe that so many of our problems with hunting and forest management come from damn cartoon characters.)
Back to soccer;it did contibute two positive items to the sports world:yellow cards ad soccer kicks to the popular sport of Japanese mixed martial arts.
