Well the World Cup is finally over and for a final epic spectacle what we got to witness today was tension filled physically played and riveting 120 minutes of football that in the end could best be described as disgrace to the great game. Today two things won out, cynicism and pragmatism. A game that was truly brutal in style and barbaric in its approach as well as afraid of it’s own shadow.

Some Mellow Thoughts and Hopes For Manchester United
I guess I am in a mellow mood or I'm just feeling relaxed but I think it's time to write a few optimistic thoughts now that I feel this way before the anger and frustration of being a Manchester United fan returns.

Pragmatism Takes a Dumper at the World Cup…….Thank God
Today I am glad to report that the evil philosophy of pragmatism has taken a royal damper and has exited its usual perch at the top of the football world. For those who are unaware or who just don’t care, Brazil was knocked out of the 2010 World Cup today by the Dutch which, for me, spells a definite hiatus of sorts for those who have reduced the game to such boring and predictable standards and who prey on the game with such pragmatic values that they have for years tortured and crippled it’s entertainment value and freedom of expression.
