Ayo is officially the first to succumb to World Cup fever

Post by waka-man »

Here is what the New England Journal of Medicine says about the desease:
There’s an outbreak every four years. Scientists and researchers are yet to find out why.
While the symptoms are clear - incoherent babbling, unnecessary bullet points and an almost autistic obsession with certain numbers (10 is common), the causes - and who is likely to fall for it, are not well understood. Some anecdotal evidence suggests it is prevalent in societies that have recently qualified for a quadrennial sporting competition played every four years, thus its name, World Cup fever.
Sufferers lose all ability to make a clear argument and yet can be fully convinced that they are making sense. You will often hear them use phrases like “do you seriously believe x, y, z”. Usually, x, y, z are indeed, totally believable if you are serious.
The most common manifestation of the illness is of course a form of turrets that is expressed in online forums and social media. Shorn of their ability to regulate themselves emotionally and ontellectually, sufferers have been known to post numerous copies of mildly different versions of the same post making he same point. Over and over and over and over again.

Of course this desease should not be confused with plain ole stupidity. Thats what DumbSister suffers from.

When the WC is over he'll be gone and won't return until we qualify for the next AFCON.

It’s pretty bad right now. The first page of the site is turning into a list of one hypothetical after another

Time to get Nigerians in the right frame of mind for the Mundial. We need to be shaken out of our current lethargy.

These countries are going to Russia hoping to win the World Cup:
Brazil
Germany
Argentina
Italy
Spain
Belgium
France

These countries are hoping they can make the semi finals:
Portugal
Russia
Uruguay
Mexico

All the others will settle for getting to the knock-out stage. Nigerians appears to be content just going to participate. This mindset affects almost everything we do in our national life.

We are nowhere near the 1994 or 98 teams yet in terms of talent, firepower upfront and confidence. Rohr really has his work cut out.

We have eight months to sort it out though. I am confident Rohr will be up to the task as so far, we appear to think alike.

I swear it’s gettifn worse. The front page of the site is now a joke with post after pointless post. And it’s DumbSister opportunities to talk total offpoint.

Otherwise we’ll all lose interest in the site real quick.

The thing is bad. Really is. But we will cope somehow. If only the posts were informative and illuminating, the pill would be easier to swallow.

Ayo has that fever and it's incurable. The terrible symptoms are triggered by rush of acidic fluid from the gut to the brain brought by wc qualification. The temporary cure is also triggered Nigeria's exit from the wc or the final match, which ever is sooner
