All jokes aside...

... it looks like one of the major off-the-pitch stories about the 2006 World Cup will be prostitution. Germany has legalized prostitution and there have been a few articles about how upcoming tournament is expected to be something of a perfect storm for brothel proprietors. (I'm a little surprised that the EU doesn't have a standardized law about the legality of the profession, since they have all sorts of regulations about matters pertaining to employment and such.)

P.S. Nothing but a hilarious accident surely, but the MSNBC page I linked to above has a photo of Ronaldinho, a guy who knows a thing or two about sex workers....
