Happies, Art.

MikeL2... there is another aspect about Rooney that perhaps I shouldn't broach. The injury and all the negative thoughts about England going all the way. Certainly, these could combine to make Rooney "take stock" of the possibility of getting injured again. There is a lot at stake for him, his club and his fans.

One would expect ALL for Queen and country, but if you get booed, it might make you think twice.

In any case, it's all conjecture, but I think you have made the best case.
