You seem the opposite to me although granted I wouldn't watch the London Marathon if there were no fursuits in it - as you imply, it's a bit boring just watching people running. I can do that with the police chasing the criminals around the streets of Middlesbrough.

As for the World Cup, I've never got into it. It's always disappointing for me. But then, even though I do follow football, I only really care about Boro. I can't stand the England national football team if I was being honest.
