I was going to have a quiet weekend. Write some stuff about Everton. Catch up on the latest
fun and frolics at Rangers, with Wilfrid Hyde-White's distant cousin Craig "I have nothing to"
Hyde-White. And watch a Gaelic Football match in North-West London. Then a certain well-informed
supporters' web-site in the Staffordshire area suggested 200% "take a look" at their latest
postings.
Peteca, Tlatchi, Cuju, Shrovetide, the human history is filled with games that involve a chasing a
ball. Whether at one point we all started off kicking it or throwing it, or if it was oval shaped
or round, it seems to be unknown to history. Or perhaps instead of branching off from one main
descendant, the game spontaneously evolved at multiple points in the world.
