FIFA is a vuvuzela. It's in your ear, but you don't want to hear it, and then eventually it goes away.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
When you're playing, you're playing something for the world to hear.
Sometimes shutting off the sound on the television can allow you to actually watch the game and take it in in an entirely different and more direct way - a first-order, first-person experience - rather than filtered through the mind of another.
FIFA stands for discipline, respect, fair-play, not just on the field of play, but in our society as well.
The game's the thing. That's why people tune in. They don't tune in to hear an announcer.
I say to my friends, 'Don't just listen to the vuvuzelas; look at who scores the goals.' And this is the important thing.
I love playing FIFA on my PlayStation!
When cars honk and hoot and drunks squeeze out of car windows and scream, you can be sure that football is in the air.
They would go back and listen to my matches, and two days later, I'd be fined. Because no one heard it while it was being played, but they heard it on some mic behind the court. Is that the way it should be? I don't think so.
If there is noise against you, then you try to make it seem it is for you. You just have to try to focus on your own game and try and win the match whatever way you can.
Every time some spoiled European soccer millionaire complains about the blaring vuvuzelas, I want them to blare louder.
