For the past month all I’ve heard about is how the World Cup is the biggest event in the history of mankind.   That the “beautiful game” makes our Superbowl look like a Double A baseball game.   Yada, yada, yada.    And tonight is the opening ceremony for the World Cup which is being billed as the most spectacular celebration of sports of our generation.   So who did the Germans get to headline this massive celebration?   If you said Right Said Fred, you’d be correct.   Yes, the boys from “I’m too sexy for my shirt, too sexy for my shirt” are apparently the best the Germans could dig up for this thing.   I don’t know about you, but this kind of reassures my faith in the fact that I ain’t missing anything by not paying attention to the World Cup.   So the next time somebody lectures me about how huge the World Cup is I’m just going to reply by saying “how big could it be if Right Said Fred played the opening ceremony.”

As a side note, I still do like that song "I'm too sexy"
