And what is the point of stating that you do not care for something that others do?

Afterall, the list of things you do not care for must be infinite.

But I suppose a fair question you might ask me is why I care that you don't?

i just feel that you are missing out on a truly unique and beautiful event... I guess that I care for your enjoyment of something.

So, I recommend you give it a chance... it's like cultivating an interest in classical music or fine wines... the enjoyment is in following the mesmerizing, intricate, spontaneous organic team movements... like appreciating the interplay of different sounds and notes in a Mozart sonata or the subtle blend of red and black fruits, tobacco, mocha, and hints of spice in a high-end Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon.

AND, it doesn't involve professional franchises playing for shekels... IT INVOLVES NATIONS/CULTURES AT SUBLIMATED WAR with one another.

It's an athletic game of RISK.

If convenient, I recommend starting out with any game involving Spain, France or Brazil... and above all catch the Norwegians, who have a living Thor as their star.
