Why do the Brazilians always get so fat? Ronaldinho, Ronaldo, and especially Adriano!

It's because we have nothing to eat and we spend all days playing football in the streets, and when the nice people from Europe offer us some money, we can't stop eating.

 

[Filipower]

Exactamente.


Why can't anyone get that? It's obvious why they get fat and their form starts dropping...

Llora Brazil, llora...

What a game...!!!

Messi and Aguero were amazing...

But the best was MASCHERANO...!!! And we sold him for only 15 mill.



No gold for Brazil...

And about Dinho's weight, thats the beauty of football, you can be fat, short, tall, thin...it doesnt matter...you are good playing it or not.


PS: My english is a littly rusty...

HAHAHA!!!!

Brazil out of the Olympics' football tournament once again... all too familiar a sight.

I only got to watch the second half, and it seems Argentina dominated the first one. From what I could see, Brazil couldn't create clear cut chances, even though they did manage to hit the post twice.

Well done, Argentina. You're now favourites to get the gold medal. Make South America proud.

 

[El Diablo Rojo]

Yes let's take revenge from Atlanta!

Excellent performance by our guys.

I got to say though i'm a bit surprised by the performance of some brazilian players like that Anderson, he was TERRIBLE, and Diego why is he so hyped? I don't think i ever saw a good performance of him, even when Brazil plays pretty good Diego is still so-so.

btw, do you all really hate dunga as coach? do you think he'll make it to SA 2010?

 

[Help?]

Man, Argentinian attack is so fluid, just a pleasure to watch at times. Nigeria got a few tricks of their own too. Watch out for them in 5-6 years, these two teams are no strangers to each other and met a number of times before.

Nah it's just Kibe Kru.

Most people do hate him, and they believe he is being coached by the NT, and not the opposite. They have a valid point. No previous experience as a coach really counts against him. But his biggest problem seems to be the fact that he's not exactly media friendly, and even the Brazilian FA's best friends in the media seem to want him out now...

I think he couldn't have done much more in the olympics. He selected the players he could, and lost to a much better side. It just happened to be Argentina.....

And no, I don't think he'll make it to SA 2010... Rumour is that failing to win in Chile in Sept 7 will get him axed from the job. The thing is, no manager in our history has lasted from the immediate aftermath of a lost world cup to the next one, and it certainly won't be Dunga.

Nah it's just Kibe Kru.

You wouldn't want me any other way, would you?

Oh, and congratulations Argentina! (still behind us, though!)
