Green Lantern Socceroos

Is it just me or does anyone else think about brightly colored underwear when the announcers talk about Australia's Men's 2010 FIFA World Cup team?

Now I don't want to get off on another rant here, but Socceroos is the worst nickname for a sports team ever.

Well, I guess I won't get off on a rant, that's pretty much it. I'm done.




ps - that rant was shorter than the vuvuzela i found in my pocket.

  1. It is not just you. If anyone had passed by a newsstand (which they probably haven't because newsstands are all but extinct, except for various conveniently located CVS stores) before the World Cup, they would have seen the Vanity Fair magazine highlighting the very reason many women watch men's soccer... "socceroos". http://bit.ly/bV42Uf
    As for Australia...well, yeah.

  2. Note to self: It was cold outside. There is such a thing as shrinkage.
