Pseudo Football Fans

Posted on 01:32 by david
Let`s rewind back to a few weeks ago--->Football was on everyone`s mind,heart,soul,lips,hips(waka waka) and of course tweets.Everyone who was anyone supported some random country and became a supposed die hard fanboy of that nation. They fight with rival fans with all their blood[no not physical fights,am talking about the twitter/fb fan wars] and get a faux sense of prestige when their favorite team wins a particular match. They give a second by second update on what happens during the match[dude, the whole fuckin world is watching the match...we know it when a player misses a goal!!]

Now Lets switch back to present scenario -----> ?????? Where have all the pseudo football fans gone?

It is sad and scary that Football world cup seems to be becoming more of a fad than a sports tournament. It is almost like you have to follow the world cup to be considered cool and "fit in" the group. Brazil seems to be the favorite team by default for Indians.

Some statistics:-
1. 70% of the football fans who come out of hibernation during fifa season have`nt even touched a football in their life.
2.95% of these pseudo fans do not know the name of any Indian football player except Baichung Bhutia(30% of which would`nt even know Baichung Bhutia if it was`nt for his presence in the celebrity dance show JHALAK DIKHLAjA)
3.95% of them have`nt played football in their lifetime. Now i know there are people even among cricket admirers who follow the game but do not play it but is`nt 95% too much?

Do not question these statistics for they have been researched and articulated by Arnab goswami.




NOTE:- Will be using some popular faces in this comic, the characters in this comic have nothing to do with the actual personalities though!


*DAY- Just before IPL-3*
*SITUATION:- 4 buddies who love cricket.. hanging together*




*DAY:- 1 day before fifa world cup began



















*SOME WEEKS LATER*
