Marmie: We’re Playing Real Football Today

Marmitetoasty (re: U.S./Britain World Cup soccer match today): Dear Doodle Friends… England Are Gonna Stuff Your Football Team Today In The World Cup… You Had All Better Get Back To Stuffing Donuts….. You Do Know Real Football Is Played Without Helmets And Padding Like That Namby Pamby American Football Game You Have :) - Be Prepared To Be Slaughtered Big Time…. It Wont Mean I Love You Less Though… :)

P.S. The passion in my country today is amazing….. dont think doodles quite understand our nations passion for our Team….. sorry, you can argue with me til ya black and blue, tiz what I believe :)

Question: On a scale of 1 to 10 -- with 1 being a yawn and 10 being the Super Bowl -- how much into today's Word Cup soccer match between the United States and Britain are you?
