The world cup has started. The streets are deserted. There is no traffic, no pedestrians. It's eerily quiet. I look forward not to the point at which the match ends, there will be much noise, for it looks like we're going to win. 

I'll have to do my shopping early tonight: you NEVER go out on the night of an England game, it's just not fun.

It saddens me that football is the only thing that can muster up a bit of national pride.

 

Seriously, it’s freakily quiet.

ETA We won thanks to an own goal, how funny is that?!

The Luna commentary is fabulous. Though I did love Lee Jordan, too. Hehe -- and you know McGonagall wanted desperately to laugh at all the off-the-wall things Luna said, and all Lee's inappropriate remarks. ;)

"LEE JORDAN, ARE YOU GETTING PAID TO ADVERTISE FIREBOLTS? GET ON WITH THE COMMENTARY!"

Lee was amazing, really.

Commentary is definitely the best thing about Quidditch matches. JKR said that she didn't like writing them for exactly the reason that they're not my favorite parts to read - there only so many ways that a match can be different.
