Viva va va va voom! It's the World Cup!

Alright Baby talk aside, lets talk business. It's the flippin' World Cup! The World Cup! Not the NBA finals. Not the Super bowl. Not the Olympics. The flippin' World Cup! It's a sport that is just chock full of action packed athleticism. Besides, the fact that the majority of soccer players are ha ha ha hot!

Shellie's Curiosity:
Why do most sports entail a ball and, most of the time, a hole or a goal that resembles a hole?
Sure, it's tragic that USA lost. Definitely, not a surprise. I'm all about routing for my country, but watching USA was painful on my eyes. Our players has as much finesse as a lobster on it's back on dry land. Now Brazil or Portugal, there's a razzle dazzle of a team! Wow! Great country to watch and easy on the eyes as well!

Like the Olympics, it's comes once in four years. Unlike the Olympics, it is hardly recognized by my own countrymen or countrywoman. It's sad, when the majority of the country is unable to appreciate the art of soccer. On the other hand, it is celebrated in other countries, and sometimes all a country has to look forward to.

I'm just relieved to know that Jaissa, niece in the sixth grade in Hawaii, avid player -position sweeper- is following the World Cup. That makes me a happy Aunt.
