  • I'm a geek too; it doesn't mean that's the only thing I am, though. I've seen every game of Euro 2012 so far (to the point of putting my social life on hold) and plan to watch every remaining game. If there's boxing, tennis, snooker, darts, swimming, curling, skiing, gymnastics, golf, athletics, or motor sports on, then I'll be watching that too. In fact, about the only sports that make me gag are cricket and rugby.

    But in terms of my football club, my life is truly shaped by what Liverpool do on the football pitch, who we buy, how we conduct themselves, and our history. Even if I got married and had children, I'd have to think twice about whether holding my newborn for the first time was better than the night we beat AC Milan on penalties. Sadly, I don't think anything is ever going to be better than that night. We all draw meaning from something. For me, it's eleven men kicking a bit of leather around.
