World Cup Buzzzzz and the Vuvulezas

HOME. Apparently, the Brits are complaining to the BBC and they are considering whether they can broadcast 'clean' vuvuzela free feeds. Its disturbing to read the derisory comments from sections of the British media in particular about the vuvuzelas and African culture, while Britons are buying the plastic horns in their thousands.

While they do take some getting used to, unless they are actually having an impact on the players ability to communicate and concentrate as stated by Messi and Denmark's Sorenson, then certainly they are harmless and part of the local show, so let's move beyond this debate.

The goals are coming in slowly for sure and apart from the opening match, Argentina's attack, South Korea's free flowing ball, and Germany's all round play, the tournament thus far has failed to completely spark. 

Its early days. 

The tendency of the opening matches are often 'a don't lose' mentality which means tight and tactical encounters. The goals will come, the drama will build, and the vuvuzelas won't stop. Deal with it, even it it requires earplugs, in your living rooms!

NOTE. If the Earth's bee population were suddenly to decide to rise up and overthrow humanity, it has been suggested that the time to act is now, no one would hear them coming until it was too late...

    Graci, Grazi. Ciabata. Meant to say: Great to be back home. I'm going to miss the vuvu. I soooo loved it like only an italian can. I bought 612, one for each of my cousins. Ciao!
