No, this blog will document the journey of four average American guys — three expatriates and one ex-expatriate (that’s me) — in their early 30s as they make their way from various ends of the earth to South Africa for the 2010 FIFA World Cup.Yes. Football. Soccer. Footy.
Over the next 393 days — and beyond — you will learn about the four of us, which teams we’re following, our musings on world events and world sport, the trials of travelling to South Africa from our respective homes, and any other humour we can think of to share. Which will be fun and entertaining for you, because each of us is twisted in his own special way.
But mostly, you’ll be able to peer in as we talk shit to each other.
Disclaimer: FGOC is not for the faint of heart or delicate of constitution. Most of us hope our mothers never find this site. Except for Scott, because he knows I already share everything with her. Ahem.
(But this we promise you: There will be no consuming of excrement involved in this venture. We’re sick bastards, but we’re not that sick.)
Things to expect:
- A massive amount of shit-talking
- Numerous references to “Caddyshack,” “The Big Lebowski,” “Airplane!,” “Shaun of the Dead,” “Hot Fuzz,” “The Simpsons” and other pieces of fine entertainment
- Inside jokes you will not understand (but still will enjoy)
- Jokes about South Africans
- Jokes about Australians
- Jokes about Americans (by Americans, for Americans)
- In-depth and hilarious updates on each of the teams we’re following
- Links to fun and other ephemera
- And much, much more!
There you have it, kids. Come back often as we see the world.
