    Vuvuzelas to be banned[^] The sound of the one trillion flies hanging around South Africa spoils the game. (IMHO). Ban them and let us enjoy the games.

    We have asked for no vuvuzelas during national anthems or stadium announcements.

    I think this guy did not get the problem: PLEASE STOP THE FRACKING THINGS DURING THE GAME ! The two anthem minutes don't bother me.

    Patrice Evra, the France captain, has blamed the noise for waking the team in their hotel and stopping the players from hearing each other on the pitch.

    If we won't be World Champion of soccer, at least, we have good chances for the Best Good Excuse Award (which we will put on the fireplace near the Best Hand Everybody but the Referee saw of the Century Award)

        "It's the way the South Africans express their joy and pleasure at the tournament being here," said Hemmingham. Can't they sing up like the rest of the world do?

          I think we lost the Super 14 final due to that stupid noise... I haven't watched really watched any of the WC games, but the noise is not limited to football alone. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jgyoUD9EKJk[^]

              What I don't understand, is why they did not put a high-frequency pass filter on the stadium audio track, then add the moderators voices and broadcast the results. It should sound a bit like hearing the stadium in a radio from the 60's, but would still be better...

                  Since they won't stop using them I hope that they will never get to organize another international sport event. You can love your stinky horns all you want, but rest of the world don't so blow it as hard as you can as long as you can since it will be your last chance and the only one to do it, I hope. [/rant]

                    It sounds like an invasion of a giant swarm of bees... But their house their rules, if that is how they enjoy sport so be it. Just as it is the right of FIFA not to send the world up their again if it annoys everyone else so much.

                      You need to have higher brain functions developed in order to do so.

                        I wouldn't mind if they banned the announcers too. I can't take any more of their endless drivel. Just call the game for crying out loud. Is that not what they are supposed to do!?
