Remember in the old school Tom and Jerry cartoons when one of the characters would be so surprised that their jaw literally would hit the floor? That was me…twice this week.
First off one of my best friends emailed me that they were pregnant. This was news that came completely out of left field and the surprise left me more zoned out then usual at work. Occasionally I had to feel my face to make sure my mouth was shut.
The second shock of the week came during yesterday’s World Cup final. In the overtime period the French captain Zinedine Zidane committed one of the biggest errors in the history of sports. Zidane cost himself, his team and his country on the world’s biggest stage.
I’ve watched the video over and over again and I still can’t believe it. This would be the equivalent of Michael Jordan punching Byron Russell in the NBA Finals instead of hitting the series winning shot. It will forever be linked to Zidane and this year's Cup. I thought I’d write a whole column about how shocking this was but I figured the best thing to do is just to show it.
