world cup is here!

As a Brazilian, I have to admit that this is the most waited sports competition for us. Awaited for four years, we always have the hope of winning, specially over France! And as I see ad listen, Swisses and we share the same thought as seen in a T-shirt in the streets in the French Switzerland:

'je supporte deux équipes: la Suisse et n'importe quelle autre qui battra la France!'

Meaning that: " I am a fan of two teams: Switzerland and the other who is gonna win over France!. Not that I think they have any chance, but at least they do their best.

Also on the streets around Geneva, you can see the Brazilians and other teams supporters moving around already with the team T-shirts! The city is gonna deploy big screens for the 'people' to watch the games. And this years world cup has an advantage for who is in Europe: as South Africa is in the same meridian this means the time of the games won't be like when it was in Japan or Australia.



So, this is it. Good luck to all teams, but mostly to Brazil, I think they will need it since I have heard around here that our team is not the best as our coach has done some bad choices. SO we might say may the best team win! (or the one who has a good financing company, not to mention the happening in the cup of 1998, when Ronaldinho (or Ronaldo as Hungarians say) 'pretended' to be sick and had to give up the match and let France win... well...nobody ever could explain that...

FYI, this is the google's Easter egg for the 'world cup' research...

So, as we say in Portuguese: I hope my poor Brazilian fan heart won't suffer that much...
