Huh? Where are the pads and helmets?………..I thought you said football………………..:)

Interesting; I followed some athletes early in my twitter life but it was all one-sided, I got bored after awhile. If some of these chaps, blokes, dudes are more interactive I just might have to give them a try.

Thanks for sharing this Tony; hope your week has gone well.

  Ha Ha Bill, I thought that might get some of my friends from the other side of the water going :-) I had thought of putting Soccer in the title but it just didn’t seem right, it’s football whatever others might call it!
  
  I tend to agree about following so called celebrities but just sometimes you might just catch them being a little indiscreet, it might be a long wait though, I am sure I have got many better things to be doing with my time.
  
  Thanks for stopping by Bill and hoping all is good in your world. Good to see you on Google+, even less time to gawp at those celebs now :-)
