Transcript:
Pig: Hey! My old friend, Tom! I haven't seen you in years. How goes it? Tom: Oh, can't complain. I'm still married. I have two wonderful kids. Pig: I thought you had three. Tom: Two that are wonderful.
BTW, I’m sorry to ruin the joke but if you read carefully you will conclude that they didn’t “decide to watch tennis”. The football match was “in the final minute”, so it simply ended and goat moved on to something else (tennis).

It’s good these two aren’t talking about baseball…Steph would have to change their names to Bud & Lou!
BTW, it was written into their radio contract that Abbott & Costello would have to do “Who’s On First?” at least once each season!

Why don’t they completely confuse themselves and watch Cricket?

If you think about it, calling Soccer Football makes a lot of sense.
