whatson gem - Use $ kickoff to list upcoming football tournaments on command line

Hello, For fun I’ve added yet another dataset to the whatson gem that lets you list upcoming football tournaments from around the world. Ever wonder how many days to the next World Cup? Just type in your shell: $ kickoff The command will fetch the football event calendar page (from the intertubes) and print out: NOW ON 18d Women's World Cup 2015, Sat-Sun Jun/6-Jul/5 (30d) @ Canada › World (FIFA); NOW ON 13d Copa América 2015, Thu-Sat Jun/11-Jul/4 (24d) @ Chile › South America (CONMEBOL); in 14d Gold Cup / Copa de Oro 2015, Tue-Sun Jul/7-26 (20d) @ United States+Canada › North America (CONCACAF); in 1087d World Cup 2018, Thu-Sun Jun/14-Jul/15 (32d) @ Russia › World (FIFA) ... and so on. Cheers.
