Foosball Master Tour

I'm still trying to figure out if this is a joke or not...

Its foosball... but they're taking themselves far too seriously... but its not absurd enough to be unequivocal satire...

I think they might have been serious. As undeinably disturbing as that thought is..

You're commenting on something you know nothing about. Foosball has been around on a competitive level for four or five decades. The winners of a double events have won a pair of Porsches in the past. Although this event was only a field of 16 teams, the purse was probably less. The players you see were definitely serious.

Watching four people playing foosball on a TV screen is a bit weird as the playing surface is so small it's hard to follow. It was a great first attempt to enlighten people this level of skill exist in a game most people play for fun.

Wow. Apparently I angered someone. Terribly sorry. I find pretty much all organized sports that don't allow hitting absurd though. The writer of this blog knows and understands that...

That, and we find all serious people to be undeniable disturbing, like you sir or madam.
