Oh, things just got real… Argentina will be playing Germany in the World Cup on Sunday…which means we have a Pope-Off! Will the Argentinian bring a few surprises? Will the German team retire early?

Back in England, a lot of churches have a football team which plays in the local league. A while ago this got me thinking…
…there is strict adherence to the rule book…
…the guy in black makes the calls…
…everyone loves the team captain…
…family is always on the side of the pitch cheering on the play…
…those “on the wing” have a crucial role to play…
…the team strip is kick-ass…
…they take the after game baths very seriously…
…and only the team captain is allowed to take the final penalty.
