Way off topic chaps but the lad I work with out here has just lost his father-in-law to cancer. The news put me in mind of this video which is probably one of the most uplifting things I've ever watched.
If you're feeling a bit low after today's results have a look and listen to this, I bet it makes you feel better (and I bet you can't stop your foot tapping either)

I did say it was way off topic.
Sorry pal, it really is nothing whatsoever to do with losing today.

No need to say sorry to me, it doesn't offend me.
It's a nice video...but could make posters even more depressed seeing all those survivors dancing if they have just lost someone to cancer. Not everyone is so lucky.

I don't see the video as a bunch of survivors dancing but rather people refusing to admit defeat. If you have lost someone to cancer (which I have 3 times) you have to admire the fighting spirit of Megan Kowalewski, i could have put a link to the Kelly Clarkson version but this one means more to me.

It's always the bottom line, dances. Football is but just a game when all is said and done.

I disagree about football just being a game. That's the kind of codswallop that is spewed out sentimentally.
On a practical level football is much more than that to most these days. People work all week to cover the costs associated with football support and I would argue that there are more men in our country who are more fanatical about football than any religion.

Great video - thanks for that.
