It’s Germany O’Clock. To help pass the time during their World Cup training camp in Switzerland, Germany’s players will take a course in watch making. “They’ll learn how to take a watch apart and put it back together again,” German team manager Oliver Bierhoff said on Sunday. “It’s something a bit different. We have a lot of watch freaks in the squad.” Not exactly my hobby of choice, but whatever floats your boat. If nothing else, Germany should be the most punctually sound team in the World Cup.
