Todd:Sarah, so what sports do you like?
Sarah:My favorite spectator sport is football. I support Newcastle United in England.
Todd:Newcastle United.
Sarah:Newcastle United, Yeah.
Todd:Are they a good team?
Sarah:Um, yeah, I think they're pretty good. They finished fifth in the premiership this year, so they're near the top.
Todd:OK, so right now we have the Euro cup. And last night England played.
Sarah:They did
Todd:Yeah, did you see the game?
Sarah:Ah, no I was going to watch it tonight actually in Shibuya but I'm thinking
maybe not now
because we lost on penalties.
Todd:Yeah, what was the score?
Sarah:Ah, the final score was 2 all (2-2) and then it went to penalties and
I think it was 6-4.
So England always lose on penalties.
Todd:They always lose on penalties?
Sarah:Yeah
Todd:Well, sorry. Maybe in the World Cup, next time!
Sarah:Maybe. Maybe! Yeah.
Todd:Now do you ever play football?
Sarah:No, I've never played.
Todd:Never
Sarah:Never played, no!
Todd:OK. Do you ever go and watch games in Newcastle?
Sarah:Um, it's very difficult to watch games in Newcastle because it's a big
club and it's Premiership
and you have to book in advance quite a few years but I've seen some
first division football clubs
play against each other.
Todd:You have to get tickets two years in advance?
Sarah:For the big clubs, yeah. They're booked up.
Todd:That's pretty intense. So when there's a game on TV then what do you do? Do you watch it at home? Do you go to a pub?
Sarah:Ah, it depends on the game. I like it and I like Premiership football,
and I like World Cup football
and Euro 2000 but I wouldn't watch particularly a first division game
on the television, but normally I would go to the pub with friends and
watch the game.
Todd:Do you think that athletes make to much money?
Sarah:I think footballers do. Yeah, I think they do. I think they do a good job but I think they're incredibly overpaid.
Todd:Yeah, I think it is the same thing in the states. I think they make too much money.
