Des,, I completely agree with you. I love football, but it is only the saturday 5pm matches I am talking about... and in fairness most people wont be `wining and dining during those two hours.... its the `late games` and mid week games that ko at 10pm that are the real nuisance when one is out and about.... but why do restaurants want to show games

crazy... nothing worse, and we steer well away from restaurants showing football .
It really is `in yer face` everywhere... thankfully when the world cup starts we will be back in the UK.. it will be a nightmare scenario here in Hisaronu those three weeks.. thankfully / probably England wont get through the opening rounds so it may quieten down towards the end weeks :-)
