I can't believe this! Over here in Britain, the Mars Bar, a brilliant chocolate bar, has had its name changed because of football! :x

It's now called 'Believe'. At first, I thought Mars had changed their bar's name and didn't think too much of it, but I soon learned it's because some football team 'believes' they'll be in the world bore (it's not important enough to have capital letters). There's another thing to add to your boycott list along with the Oreos and Snickers!

Speaking of Snickers, wasn't that bar always like Mars Bar's sporty cousin or something?

......THEN WHY THE HELL DO WE NEED MARS DOING IT!!!???

Damn sports! They seep into everything! I'm going to have nothing left to eat at breaks if all snacks are going to start promoting sports!

HOLY COW!!! HAS THE WORLD GONE MAD?!!! Were sales so poor that they had to change the name? I doubt it. I can only conclude that the company is depressed and wants to commit financial hiri-kiri. I shall NEVER eat a MARS BAR AGAIN!!

I love Mars Bars too much to never eat them again, but as long as they are named 'Believe', I shall not even look at one, if I can help it.

Damn Believes! I hate my eyes for your looking at you!

At least I like Twixeseseseseses. :) I had one of them during a tea-break, today. My eyes were defiled by the football-named chocolate bars that lay beside it, though.

Unfortunately, Coca-Cola has slowly and covertly snuck football onto their cans! I just noticed that once I had half-finished my can! Fuck off!

Another thing that makes my blood boil is all the fucking football competitions! Competitions are supposed to be for anybody, but they're tailoring them for brain-dead football fans! I don't enter competitions, so it doesn't directly affect me (apart from making me pissed off at more football pimping), but it does affect non-fans who do like to enter competitions!

Give me one good reason that this over-pimped homoerotic sport should not be eradicated!

Boycot any cola-cola with something to do with sport. If anyone buys you a Coke with something to do with sport, drink it from a glass.

ahh, good idea. I'm back on track. If anybody hands me a coke in a container emblazoned with a football, I'll poor it into some <i>other</i> container. And then I'll <i><b>SMASH!</b></i> the coke can! And throw it where everything associated with sports belongs.. --in the trash can! arrrrrrrrrrr!!!!

Could it be? Has gowankers found out how to register? Or is this just another brainless sports fan? It's hard to tell. In any case, I knew it would only be a matter of time before a sports fan registered.

I have never heard of soke, so I can't support it without knowing what it is, first. Even then, because it has footbore on it, I'm not going to support it.

Why is footbore a reason to buy cocaine? You must mean cocaine, and not Coca-Cola, since you didn't capitalise the word coke.

By the way, no matter what reason you give, I'm not going to buy drugs like some brain-dead sports fan who needs a substance to get through the day without killing himself because his team missed a free kick. No. I'm better than that.

By the amount of question marks after "wtf", I deduct that you are the most confused person on the planet. Never before have I seen so many question marks ending a 'sentence'.

The same with exclamation marks. The maximum that is acceptable is three. Not four, not five, not twenty -- three. Now say it with me... three.

Sports suck!

My post actually counts, since it has proper grammar, punctuation and spelling while yours is a mess of words and symbols caught in a whirlwind of brainwashed sports rubbish.

Now let's not pick on his spelling and grammer. Lets pick on his arguement instead. Since he has provided no evidence if we provide any sort of evidence then we win by default. Their are many things that could replace sport and have a positive influence on the world. For instance video games would enhance tech and promote learning.

Okay, now we have to boycott Pringles. They've gotten into the 'footbore spirit', too! :x

We're going to have nothing left to eat or drink if this keeps up! :(
