NIKE CURSE

Football’s World Cup is heading towards the latter stages with the familiar sound of the vuvuzela. I like the noise, but if you fancy a pie at halve time, could it be used as a ‘pie shooter’? Aimed at rival fans, referees and Sepp Blatter.

No doubt some of you watched the Nike ad during the World Cup, entitled ‘Write the future’. Featuring Ronaldinho, Drogba, Ribery, Rooney and Ronaldo. Alas to Nike's horror the stars of the advert have one-by-one seen their tournament cut short.

It’s always nice to see over-hyped stars backed by a multi-billion dollar corporation fall flat on their faces.

Will the Nike curse continue and wreck the hopes of Woods, Immelman, Kim, Cassey and the likes at the Open Championship from St Andrews?

  2. I like when outsiders win major tournaments. Share the trophies around a bit.
