Good to hear from you again.

Perhaps I don't know much about soccer. You're probably right. However, you're not doing much better than me if you think Limerick people are involved with anything like "rugger". (Old chap). And you'd need to reconsider if you think rugby is based solely on muscle, because then you'd be missing out on one of the great team sports.

However, moving on to the main point of your post, I think you're being very hard on me. Perhaps this is because you missed previous posts concerning the great Zinedine Zidane, but if you take a look, you can see what I said about him in the past.

I hope you'll have a look, and perhaps feel less aggrieved.

Best wishes

Bock

Zinedene Zidane was a genius. (Sadly, we have to use the past tense.) He won a World Cup for France, he won a Champions League title for Real Madrid and he inspired millions to play the beautiful way. Left foot, right foot, headers, killer passes, 'ghosts' through a defence; a talent that inspired ordinary team mates to greatness. He had fourteen red cards in his career, a lot of them as a result of being chopped by Italian thugs. On Sunday we saw a player react to too much pressure, and we witnessed anger born in the slums of a Western Europe that judges a man by his race rather than his humanity. He was wrong, of course. But try a bit of understanding, Mr Bock. Then tell me the name of a rugby player that has inspired so much love and riddle me how a game that is based on muscle compares with with a game that can accommodate a solitary genius who can captivate the world?
