Aw, Nevada, you know that we were just kidding and that we all have a deep and abiding respect for you and the game of soccer. After all, soccer
is the official national game of France.
Which brings up another point however......
There has been a definitive study issued by the AMA that shows that persons who watch, play or officiate more than 3 soccer games a year slowly begin to morph into a Frenchman. That includes wimmen of the feminine persuasion too. The AMA has given this newly-identified malady the name
"Padgett's Syndrome". The good news, though, is that the AMA has also issued a test that outlines the warning signs associated with this dastardly disease:
1) Have you started sprinkling cheese on your corn flakes?
2) When someone says "hello" to you, do you immediately throw both arms up in the air and say "I surrender"?
Take immediate action if any of the warning signs show up. Kick a football; shoot some baskets; play catch with a baseball(not a softball--that's for sissies and Larks).
Now....don't be silly.
