Day 30. What happened in Brazil today.
Aren't you all happy I spared you a day? I needed a rest day after the
mental exhaustion of figuring out how to watch the Argentina-Holland
semi, quickly followed by the realization that it was going to be one of
those overly cautious, we don't want to lose matches. The ironic thing
was that the incredible Germans seemed to get everybody talking. Non-sports fans and non-football
believers had heard that something unbelievable happened in this FIfA
world cup thingy. (btw, am I the only one who is amused/annoyed by how
this world cup is constantly called the FIFA world cup. Next it will be
the FIfA Adidas Macdonalds World Cup). So more people watched on
Wednesday and that's what they got.
Tomorrow we have the match
of Losers, the match neither team ever wants to play. And this time we
have the Brazil factor. Will a win bring back a bit of pride to the
country? Or, as I suspect, is it too far gone for that?
Anyway, if anybody is watching the Losers tell me about it.
