The Future of Soccer

The world compendium of all-things Star Trek has a "future history" of the coming growing importance of Soccer. Worth making the jump to read more details like this one:

One of the most popular soccer players of the mid-24th century was Golanga, until he had to have his knee replaced by a bio-implant in 2366. According to Benjamin Sisko, "he wasn't the same after that".

Injuries. Even to Worf. Who didn't like Worf? Just not right.
