Goodness me, can there be a finer week for the sport supporter than this one? On one hand we have the World Cup in South Africa, despite this is turning into being a mixed blessing for those of us supporting England (or Italy). And today Wimbledon is served up, and those of us with Online Jobs and Work From Home will be arranging ourselves so that a TV is on somewhere in the room. Better perhaps to have a pair, with the football on one set and the tennis on the other. I personally happen to have a spare laptop so I have it next to my main computer and that is tuned via a Freeview websiteweb page to one or the other depending on who is playing.

The British summer has an unmatched litany of sporting events which makes it the supreme place in the world if you have a major interest in following the paths taken by balls of varying sizes and colours. There is the aforementioned Wimbledon tennis, the British Open golf, and the British Grand Prix (not strictly a ball sport except in regard to the drivers’ cajones) as well as the Test match series in the cricket.

At this time there is no better work to be doing than to work for an Internet Business which lets us to watch the proceedings on playing fields near and far. There is never a poor time to Work From Home and being able to do so is to be have an excellent set of circumstances go for you.

There are those who don’t get, don’t like and will never comprehend sport. These are people with no feeling of romance or drama in their existence, though it is a deficiencya deficit that can be put right.

Right here I have Roger Federer, possibly the greatest player to ever lift up a tennis racquet, on my screen two sets to love down to a player no one outside the devoted tennis community has ever heard of, a man called Alessandro Falla from Columbia. This is gripping stuff. The spectator must endevour to identify with the mindset of the two men and try and work out the possibilities of Federer, finding himself having to work his way back when he must have been absolutely confident before play started, going out at the first hurdle. How does he put the brakes on and get back? What of Falla? Will he get to within sight of the end, suddenly realise what he’s about to achieve and choke as many in his position have done before? And as the match goes on, will he begin to fear every shot so that he stops taking risks aiming for the line?

This is what sport is all about. Nothing is ever sure, anybody at any time can win. If Falla beats Federer, it will rank alongside Switzerland beating Spain (World Cup favourites) in their first match, North Korea beating Italy in 1966, Llanalli beat the 1972 All Blacks, regarded as probably the best rugby side of that age, Dennis Taylor wins the World Snooker Championship against Steve Davis on the final black of the 35th frame out of 35. These are the things that become tattooed into the culture, become part of the fabric of society where somebody doing Online Jobs can recall them with ease, use his Internet Business to re-tell them and wonders is a new story is about to be written in the journal of great sporting upsets.

And before we forget, a Swiss man called Federer once achieved one of his own when he came to Wimbledon and beat Pete Sampras in the fourth round. Sampras never played at Wimbledon again but Federer did. Until today. Maybe (the gameis still not finished, but I am).
