FIFA World Cup 2014

Personally, I am not a huge soccer fan.  I enjoy watching Mr. J play, but other than that, I don't have an interest in it.  Hubby, on the other hand, LOVES soccer.  He played the game when he was a kid and when he was a teenager, and is thinking of joining an adult rec league next year.

The FIFA World Cup starts tomorrow, and will run for the next four weeks.  Hubby always cheers for Italy and I can pretty much guarantee that our TV will be tuned in to soccer for the next month.

The World Cup started in 1930, and except for twice during WWII, has been held every four years.  This year, Brazil is hosting.  Spain won the 2010 World Cup which was held in South Africa.

 Are you a soccer fan? Will you be following the 2014 World Cup?

  1. I too am not a huge soccer fan other then my son M plays. I had an opportunity to tour south Brazil so feel a connection so will be cheering them on. Soccer live is much more enjoyable than on TV.

    1. Similar to baseball. I can happily sit and watch people I know play ball, but put it on the TV and I have ZERO interest! Thanks for stopping in
