I don't blog about sports. I don't talk about sports, partially because I'm generally not interested in them. And when you're not interested in sports and you live in a place where people seem to be obsessed with them, it becomes a mark of your identity to not discuss them.
That is why I feel somewhat pained to admit that, for the first time since I was about ten and had to be excited in the World Series because everyone else was, I'm excited about a sporting event. Not because of the teams, because I don't know who's good and who's bad, or even who's playing. I'm excited about the World Cup because of the host.
