Forum Sticky Recommendation

[eppie]

Dear Lurkers:

Soccer/football is about to commence its quadrennial World Cup. :w00t: I think a "sticky" thread for the duration of the Cup play is a good idea, however, I may overestimate how popular FIFA's grand tournament is among Lurkers.

This thread's purpose: to learn the Lurker response to

"A FIFA World Cup sticky thread is"

1. good idea <>
   
2. not worth the bother.<>
   [st]Thanks for your thoughts, in advance.
   
   Discussing Cup topics such as Diego Maradonna's "Hand of God" goal some years ago, or the hose job the Dutch got from the officials (against Brazil) two cups ago, should be reserved for a World Cup thread, not this "should we or shouldn't we" thread.

I wanted to ask what a sticky thread was...but than I read Bolty's post.

Anyway, there will be a thread....and I will keep it running (as long as the netherlands are in). I personally also am an american sports fan (I visited NBA and MLB-matches, and would really like to see some live NFL adn NHL) however, the game of football (or soccer as you like) is really something else (like no sissy time-outs). Although people are working hard on letting commerce destroy the game (anybody heard about the scandal involving Juventus?).

In the real thread, Occhi, I will explain to everybody why Brazil doesn't deserve to win World Cups anymore.
