Legend has it he got the idea while working as a sports reporter under the quill name of Mike the Majic on "Ye Glasgae Daily Scribe" while reporting on The 1285 All Black tour of Scotland he got scunnered scratching All Blacks XL wur Laddies Zilch, zero, zip, nul so he decided to use OH FUR FOXACHE contracted to OFF but as this was rather cumbersome it was contracted to 0 as it is today. Even today Weejies use the tern FUR FOXACHE when watching their Favourite sport losing as usual.
But we don't want foxes to ache: we are fond of our foxy friends.
As for the favourite sport being 'losing as usual', well, yeah. We do it so well, having had a lot of practice at snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.
Oh wait, I think we sometimes win at curling, or sliding down mountains or something. But not very often. It would be wrong to spoil the image.
We of course I would be absolutely no use at curling ... see ava whatever at side for verification.
As for sliding down mountains with planks strapped to my feet one needs snow , it has never snowed in my home state (prob due to post ice age global warming caused by mastadons farting)
With these 2 facts in mind it does give you Scots an advantage
