The last time the World Cup was on, my company turned it into a "morale-building" thing in which the different work teams were assigned to the different World Cup teams and we had to decorate our work areas with items that had to do with that country.

My team was Mexico and we actually had to make up Spanish names for ourselves (can you say politically incorrect?) and put nameplates on our computers.

I do not care about football.

Glad I don't work there anymoore and won't have to go through that again.

This topic made me chuckle!

I don't really follow a team but I am so looking forward to the World Cup, esp. the little game on 12 June between England and the USA!
Good things come to those who wait...a really long time.

I can't wait for the World Cup!  Now this is going to be an interesting one.  I'll be supporting the US but I'll certainly cheer for England if we get knocked out.

wow, i work for a premier league football club and it's not like that at all! you'd think it'd be incessant football talk, but that couldn't be farther from the truth.
