Not only me
It was with enormous relief that I read this post on BoingBoing which showed that I am not the only person in the world who loathes professional sport. Especially the ones with jackasses running after balls.
The post itself, however, was not specifically about the tediousness of (watching) professional sport. No, rather the post was about a hilarious “pre-emptive cease-and-desist letter”.
Absolutely hilarious to think that some lackey in the Baker & McKenzie LLP office thought that BoingBoing might actually want to stream videos of games, and therefore would have to give them a stern warning to watch their step.
On my “Top Ten List of Wastes of Bandwidth”, webcasts of soccer matches are certainly up there. Slightly ahead of YouTube, and just under spam.
Probably not quite as wasteful as blogging, though.
