Puzzlement of youth?


Is it just me or is supporting the World Cup in Russia on a par with supporting the "rebel" cricket tours of SA in the 70s & 80s? For some it seems that thinking about football temporarily evacuates the brain of everything else. Some of the younger lads in the office started talking (with much excitement) today about starting a World-Cup sweepstake. I pointed out that this may be in bad taste when we have people from the Ukraine working in the same office and bearing in mind the latest violent incursions by the current Russian state into our own green and pleasant land?

My comment was received with much puzzlement (and ignored) ...
