Roger: You boys ready for the Super Bowl? Jason: You could say we're "super ready". Marcus: We found a website with instructions on how to be total football fanatics. Jason: We've got our scarves... Marcus: Some good off-color songs to sing... Jason: A couple of pints... Marcus: A ball to kick around with our mates... Roger: Was this website based in the U.K. by any chance? Jason: Maybe. Why? Marcus: Queens's beans! How is the score 7-0 already?!

I like Footy because it is a lot like Ice hockey. I grew up playing and watching hockey. Never have liked american “Non-foot ball”. Discovered soccer aka footy a few years back. It’s actually enjoyable to watch, most of the time. Go go Canadiens! Up the Blades!

“Soccer’s a lot like marriage. A lot of running around, but almost no scoring.”

“seven-nil” is how it’s said, yes. But “7-0” would be the normal way of writing it…The couple of pints would be illegal at a match but unremarkable when watching at home or in a pub.
