Betty MacDonald and Sport

Hello dear Betty MacDonald Fans,

it's Greta,

Betty MacDonald wasn't crazy about Sport

I remember Betty MacDonald's statements in The Plague and I, Anybody can do anything and Onions in the Stew. Not to forget the very funny stories and memories in Wolfgang Hampel's Betty MacDonald Interviews with Betty MacDonald's family and friends.

I have no idea what Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle thinks about Sport. Can we find anything about this subject in the Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle books? I can't remember right now.

Betty MacDonald's very witty sister Alison Bard Burnett was the opposite. I'm going to write a story with the title Betty MacDonald: No sports for Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter.

I say: No sports. I like to move and prefer to work in my garden. But sports! No way!

Even if you are passive and only watch a game it's very dangerous.
Take the 22 year old fan from Portugal who got a very serious heart attack. Portugal won 7 : 0 against North Korea's team. When Portugal shot the last goal the young man got his heart attack. He survived but as you can see it's rather dangerous.
To make a long story short, I dislike Sport the same way very wise and intelligent Betty MacDonald did.
My husband and three children are fond of sports ( active and passive ) and huge Fifa World Cup Fans. They watch every game and are shouting all the time.
It's VERY noisy in our house.

My dear husband said to me it would be a very good idea to send our best greetings to the U.S. Team. They really deserve the victory in their group and England made the second place.

All the best to the Betty MacDonald Fans in South Africa and good luck for the teams.
May the best team win!

Greta
