Anyone here a soccer fan?

Today is a big one. BRASIL and Argentina head off in the Copa das Confederacoes at 1545 Brazil time. (1445 EST) I'll be on my way to the Orlando airport to board a flight. I will be thinking about this game and its outcome for the entire leg to Detroit.

Whoever wins this match wins the whole Copa.

1. If by "soccer" you mean "football"......

:evilgrin:

I was lucky enough to see the full Brazil team play against China in Guangzhou 2 years ago - I was even on the same flight as them and had to stand and watch as Ronaldo, Roberto Carlos etc. went through Chinese customs.

A great game to watch, even if it ended 0-0.....Being behind the goalds during a Roberto Carlos free kick was worth the money by itself!

And he was a goalie. He was only there for a couple years. Never broke it out big in the major leagues.
