If your a long time reader of my blog this probably wont be a big surprise but for the regular Joe I meet out and about the next statement may shock could even offend. I don't care about the World Cup! Yep that's right I don't care about the World Cup, I'm not interested in the Commonwealth Games, Sochie was a bore, the cricket is a yawn to me and frankly call me un-Victorian I don't give a a hoot about AFL.
To me sport is a lot like sex, just because I like doing it does not mean I like watching others do. I'm not a fool I understand that I'm out numbered that loads of crazies, I mean people like to watch sport. Good on you, I'm super happy for just don't expect me to fake interest.
So please don't ask me if I'm watching to World Cup or the Commonwealth Games or any sport for that matter because then I maybe forced to tell you what I really think. So lets just leave it with you having your sports fever, gabbing all you like about the World Cup just don't let your viewing of the World Cup interfere with my viewing of Offspring and all will be well in the world.
Watching sport on TV is for those with two hours to spend and some emotional energy to invest. Its the motherhood equivalent of the bedtime routine. How we mothers cheer after two hours when we've won and the kids are finally asleep!
