[QUOTE=Tiradentes]Brazil loses to the Netherlands [/QUOTE]
Honestly, this is of absolutely no importance; no one gives a shit, except brasilians and brasilians wannabes, who want to continue with the brasilian "dominancy" on all things.
More important is that Ghana losed. It's a whole continent that losed hope and is now in mourning. Some 1 billion +++ people for who advancing in World Cup was an excessively important pride. A very rare pride african people can hope about.
You guys should put things in perspectives when you rave about Brasil.
Honestly, when I see those gringo Brasil fans who cry about Brasil defeat and don't even care about Ghana lose, I really feel sorry about their obtuseness.

The officiating is criminal, the play is horrendous and the hype is unbearable. And FIFA is full of itself and won't change a thing. Those idiots love the controversy because it makes headlines. This is why the US has not embraced "soccer" as a major sport (which is actually an English term, not American).
Glad to see you are so caring and concerned about the African continent. Who knew you had it in you. But they "lost" because they choked. It is sports.

You're wrong. It is important for the following reason:
Kaka is a religious nutcase. I am glad he won't have the entire world attention on July 11 to spew his hate and dogma. I for once did not want to see: 'I belong to Je&us' shirt, or witness mass praying in the middle of the field.
Also, see Kaka preach about morals in post 1206 at .

FYI Kaka is a representative part of the brasilian population. Brasil has the largest born-again xtian evangelist population in the world, with about 24% being part of the born-again Evangelical community (from a 2006 survey).

[QUOTE=Prosal]No problems. But my post was not only about sport events, it was also about anything brasilian followed abroad. If you support the immoderate and silly flag-waving behavior of the "Brasil lovers" gringos and gringas fanatics (who predominantly don't know shit about this country, as you, it seems) who dress up in yellow and green for any brasilian event like concerts, events, sport, ect, then why, if you're a yankee, don't you also wear a US flagged tee-shirt on 4th of July?...or when you go to a B Spinsteen concert? ..this is EXACTLY the same behavior. Flag waving is just silly, be it for Brasil, for Turkey, for Uzbekistan, for US or for France. Especially when you don't know shit about a country, except about its stereotypes, which, from your posts, seems to be your case.
Your post WAS bitter. Mine was just objective.[/QUOTE]They need to know something about the country to wave a flag, Thats funny! Come on they were really supporting 4x4 and luomo.

[QUOTE=Hughdad]Q: What do Dunga's coaching style, Melo and Puta Player all have in common?
A: They all suck ass.
I am in Vegas and actually put my money on the Netherlands. I was not impressed as Dunga took their style of play away. Now to add insult to injury: Argentina takes it all.[/QUOTE]It was the goal keepers fault they lost so if not for him brazil wins and there is no talk of the coach. Also the other idiot kicking the player while he was down forcing the brasilians to play 1 man short.

[QUOTE=Prosal]Don't know why Brasil drags so much "flag waving" silly gringo fans. It's actually astonishing. QUOTE]People like / enjoy what they perceive as the happy/spontaneous carefree, joyous style of Brasilians and want to identify. That's simply the way well-adjusted people express their feelings about things they like and enjoy. Conversely, when people go to France and experience rudeness and froggish behavior, they are repulsed. It's actually not so astonishing at all: it is simply expressing human emotion.

Oh yeah ? ...that is why France is world's top tourist destination, with some 80 millions inbound tourists arrival each year ? :rolleyes:
FYI Bubba, the J.W Bush era and its hatred of everything french is over. Seems you are nostalgic though. Why am I not surprised ?

[QUOTE=Auriflama]They need to know something about the country to wave a flag, Thats funny![/QUOTE]
You didn't get my point obviously, which was that as soon as there is a brasilian event somewhere in the world (whatever it is, not just football), there's clowns who feel the need to dress up head to toe in yellow and green.
I personally find that is a pretty silly behaviour.

I personally find that is a pretty silly behaviour. Like if I'd wear a french-flagged shirt as soon as I eat blue cheese.[/QUOTE]So what should they dress up in cheap funeral suits? Its not that serious, There are worse things going on like wall street, politicians, corporate america, obama, poverty, starvation lack of clean drinking water, modern medicine, prosal and obamas cheap funeral suits.

Post # 1206[/QUOTE]Kaka was not using the world cup to advance any of his personal beliefs anymore than any major sports figure. He was playing hard in the coach's style of play that did not fit the team's talent. What hate are you referring to? The guy does great things for Brazilian's poor, underpriviledged and abused. He gives freely of his time. Because he does not monger and is an advocate against kids being abused (which everyone should be against), he is "spewing hatred" and is a "nutcase"? What do you do to help less fortunate or those that can't help themsleves? Or is your sole reason for being simply to monger (which would be sad)? Or are you a perv that likes kids? Which is it?
And Prosal is correct, Kaka's views are very reflective of a large part of a sgement of Brazilian's population. I am not a religious person at all. I personally think organized religion can be evil. As history has shown. But you cannot try to discredit the good things someone is looking to do for others (whether in the name of religion or not) simply because he not share your views..

World Cup
Just in general, I'd advise anyone not to come down with the purpose of ISG activities during World Cup time, unless you have a lot of time to spend. On game days, even Centro goes absolutely dead and you cannot monger during this time. Its even hard to get food. Everything closes.
Fred100, no I'm not oil field trash. I'm an educated professional that does consulting. You have 29 posts of rubbish with no unique info or added value. I have 200+ posts directing people where, when, and how to find sex in Tokyo, Osaka, Jakarta, Mexico, and Rio. The next time you think about putting your hateful little fingers on that keyboard to slander a contributor, put them under the table and go look at my Rio or Jakarta pics or something. Maybe that will take the edge off.

Flag waving is just silly, be it for Brasil, for Turkey, for Uzbekistan, for US or for France. Especially when you don't know shit about a country, except about its stereotypes, which, from your posts, seems to be your case...[/QUOTE]I think that there's one HUGE reason there and that has to do with the fact that the last time Brazil invaded another country was in 1865.
While I agree that flag-waving is silly, most Brazilians also know that. Brazilian patriotism is generally campy. Though there are always a few fools or drunks who take it seriously, of course, they are largely considered to be idiots by everyone else. No one calls for other people's suppression or censorship if they don't join in or even (cruzes!) go against patriotism. Yesterday at Balcony, there were two guys in Holland shirts. The girls gave them shit, of course, but it was good-natured shit.
Brazilian patriots by and large don't take themselves seriously while American patriots by and large do. Brazilians cheer when their team scores a goal. Americans cheer when their president bombs another country. Americans think that anyone who criticizes them is anti-American. Brazilians, today, are busily raspberrying their team and coach and planning for a better show in 2014.
I think that most of the world recognizes this difference and that's why people by-and-large find it fun to cheer for Brazil and look in askance at American patriotism.
(Finally, why in the hell would anyone other than a moron wear a USA shirt to a Springsteen concert, given that Springsteen is extremely critical of then U.S.? You do realize that the cover of "Born in the U.S.A." is meant to represent a working-class guy pissing on the flag...?)
