GO GHANA!!!!
World cup 2006....

We have been glued to the TV and trying to catch every game. I have waited a long time for World cup. it feels more like 10 years than 4. This world cup is the most intense one ever. The teams are really viscious this time around. Jared and I are really going to try to make the next world cup where ever it is in 2010.

I normally do not watch sports at all except soccer, tennis and I can watch cricket live not on tv, but it is so long. Soccer (Futball) is definitely my favourite sport by all means. Soccer is not just about the sport but about the world, culture. It is so flavourful and it has culture pouring out of it. I get high on culture and soccer, my two favourite things.

I am so proud Ghana. They have been playing really well. A lot of these third world countries all they have is their culture and soccer. I mean if times are hard and they do not have food to eat atleast they have their music and soccer. Bob Marley once said, " If the lights go out and the food run out, all we have is just the MUSIC." The sport is a release for them, so when they play you feel their soul. How can Americans not like soccer? I guess it is because a lot of Americans do not know the world. If they got out and travelled more they would be more open minded to things that are worldly.

I am actually pretty proud of the American team. The first game they played against Chzec was horrible. They lacked in style and stamina, but when they played Italy they rocked. I felt kind of bad for them, because the referees were being kind of biased. They were red carding them for every single thing. America really gave Italy a challenge. They had more communication this time and skill. I loved that they over came their intimidation and they kicked ass. Americans need to support their team a little more. Forget this I hate soccer shit and come out and support your team!

Today I missed the Ghana vs USA game. That is a hard one because I want to support the USa, but sorry I love Ghana. I am dying to know who won. I will have to watch it again tonight.
You see when it is world cup time it sucks to be in San Fran, because people are into it like the rest of the world. I wish I was in Europe, the caribbean or South America. When it is world cup time these countries shut down. There's no work, everything is closed and the bars are full. That is they way to celebrate world cup. This sucks because it is such a quiet world cup this year because we are in the wrong place.

Well, I gotta go now to the gym..
You gotta love World Cup! Oh, by the way congrats to the Miami Heat even though I hate basketball, but I love my hometown Miami. Good job !
