以前，田邉先生に教えていただいたlacklusterを最近よく見かけます。特にワールドカップ関連記事ではよく見かけます。以下は，Japan Times online（2010年6月21日付け）からの一部引用です。
Lackluster Danes oust Cameroon
PRETORIA (AP) Denmark eliminated Cameroon from the World Cup and sent the Netherlands through to the second round. Yet the Danes could find little to cherish in their 2-1 victory Saturday night.
Dennis Rommedahl scored one goal and set up another as Denmark made the Indomitable Lions the first team knocked out of the tournament.
And while the result went Denmark's way, it was hardly what the Danes had in mind.
"When we finished the game we knew it was a really bad game," Daniel Agger said. "Especially the first half, we gave too many opportunities away. We didn't play like a team. We didn't play like we have to play if we want to progress in this competition. Clearly it wasn't good enough, but if you can win on days like that, it's positive."

「デンマークは不調だ」とはっきりと述べていますが，予選敗退第1号のカメルーンや内部分裂をおこしたイギリスやフランスに比べるとまだマシでしょう。このワールドカップ期間中に何度lacklusterに出会えることでしょうか。ブログで扱った表現を見るたびに知のネットワークのつながりを実感します。以上，本ブログでは4度目のlacklusterでした。（ゼミ生　Lbow-Shoulder）
