Soccer Final

So the soccer final is on today and I'm determined to stay up to watch it.. I planned on watching the 2 semi-finals, but when the alarm went off I sat up in bed and thought what the F#%* was I thinking setting my alarm for 4.30am (Melbourne time) to watch a bunch a men run around kicking a ball??

So why have I been drinking mug after mug of coffee to ensure my awake-ness for the final? I suspect it may have something to do with Italy.. The truth is, soccer, at least to me, is one of the most mind-numbingly boring sports I've ever watched..But Fabio Cannavaro? Now that is a completely different story, isn't it?? ;op
