football

i have only been to the one football game in the last 20 years (my sport of choice when i go to spectator is basketball or wrestling), but this story of a guatemalan team is worth reading that is for sure.
stars of the track are a team of prostitutes who play football.
and passing on all the jokes about sharing showers and giving rub downs or playing for the other side. it is a story that reminds us that sport can be a great leveler.
it makes it all the more a pity when professional sport seems to have forgotten it's roots and becomes more and more a business that is doing it's best to exclude the average person.
