    The World Cup just means more to Brazilians

    While millions will be rooting on Holland or Spain in today’s World Cup Final, let us not forget the pain felt by those eliminated. In Brazil, where soccer is King, Queen and the rest of the royal court, the disappointment of seeing their side knocked out was too much for many. Especially young Salomão:

    You ever seen Canadians around hockey? We make that kid look restrained.

    I think each nation has their sport:

    Canada = hockey.

    USA = NASCAR.


    Surprisingly, hockey never really caught on down here. No ice. No money for sticks, etc.

    You haven't been to many NASCAR races, have you? ;)
