Sports Finals

Rio Ferdinand returned to England last week from South Africa. He got injured before the World Cup after a clash with Emile Heskey and will not be participating in the World Cup for England. His place was taken my Michael Dawson who was recalled into the team by Capello. Ferdinand will obviously will be working on getting fit before the premiership season starts in August but what can else can he do in his free time. There are various things he will be able to do such as, play online poker, play Xbox, go for a holiday with his family.

But what will he do this summer?

I did a survey online asking 300 people on what Rio can do over the summer. Some said he should spend time with his family and just rest. Because this is time when they can spend quality time with their family. Some said he should try and get back to full fitness before next season. Some said that time is up for Rio as he gets injured quite often these days.

Some wanted him to stay with the current England’s squad to support them and he is also looked at one of the leader in the squad. I am not sure about that. If one of your work colleague is ill would you really want him or her sat next to you coughing and sneezing. I don’t think so. So having the injured Ferdinand in an around the squad is not a good idea. Some question why is David Beckham there then but he can atleast train with the squad, Rio will just get bored.

My suggestion for Rio Ferdinand is to have some games of absolute poker or Everest poker while resting and watching England play. Poker also helps in sharpening the mind and will keep his mind away from other things.
