The New Academy Award

There are a couple of World Cup rumours doing the rounds....which I’m starting right here.

The first rumour is that the next Academy Awards will have a new category for “Best performance by an Actor at the 2006 World Cup”. Nominations so far include:

Fabio Grosso for his spectacular effort in tripping over a blade of grass in the Australia v. Italy match, and

Thierry Henry in the France v. Portugal match for his magnificent performance in milking everything from a minor foot contact, and suggesting to the referee that his legs had been severed at the knee.

The other rumour is that FIFA is considering changing the team strips for the next World Cup to include goggles, face masks and flippers so that players are better equipped for the developing football skill of diving.

End of rumours.

In the past, the world game was played by people of integrity, not by a bunch of cheating millionaires. Don’t these dickheads realise that there are millions of kids around the world watching their antics. Will someone please rid a great sport of these fraudsters and con men.
