When the tall, beautiful Germans begin scoring at will on the weak, impotent Argintines, and as you begin to wornder what exactly you're doing with this penniless, impulsive shrew, I hope you stop and take a moment to appreciate the beautiful game.
When you're darning socks that your destitute boyfriend cannot afford to replace, washing tin foil to use again, or burrowing through the dumpsters to find something to eat on a Friday night, stop, turn on the television (or watch through someone else's window) and appreciate the beautfiul game.
When you've had it with your impecunious, inadequate boyfriend, and you're sifting through the trekkies and furries on match.com, trying to find a goiterless, somewhat socialized manchild that can pass for civilized, I hope you turn on the highlights of the Germany-Argentina match and weep. Not for the result, but for the beautiful, beautiful goals, raining like mana from the heavens, as though the lord himself came down and annointed the German footballers, and each footballer was Jesus. Precrucifixion.
Your boyfriend didn't just bet against Germany, he bet against God.
And ten Jesuses (Jesei?).
