I like the sound of this day in the countdown.....636....636.....sounds melodic.
Anyway, moving on. A memory hit me today of when I first thought of this crazy countdown idea. It must have been before the World Cup in 2006. My plan was to report on football for a year from around the world. My thinking was that on any day there is a football match going on somewhere in the world. It would be fun, I thought, to find out who's beating who in the Nicaraguan first division.
I may re-visit that plan. It's not hard to find football these days however. Champions League on Tuesday and Wednesday, Europa League on Thursday, Premier League in England on Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday, plus Bundeliga and other leagues from Friday-Monday. But that's all too easy. I'll have to find something a bit more interesting.
After that idea in 2005, it took until 2013 before I got something going. After this countdown ends, what next?
