Ha, good point babes.
I loved it when Yumi Stynes didn't hide how boring she found football and footballer's lives. I'm the same, my mind just switches off if football ever comes up in conversation, I change the channel if it comes on tv. Urgh! And it never ceases to amaze me how many sporting stories end up on the god damn COVER of our newspapers. Booorrrriiiinnng.
There are quite a few of us who think this way though. I can't name 3 aussie scientists OR 3 aussie footballers but I can write lists of amazing aussie writers and artists. And I'm not the only one who can do that in a cinch. So don't fret, all is not lost to the religion of sport in Australia.
