While many spectators enjoy watching the Super bowl, NBA finals, MLB finals and the Stanley Cup Finals, the world goes crazy for the biggest spectacle, dating back 70 years. The FIFA world Cup. The world cup is the biggest competition known worldwide, that gives the world something to look forward to every four years. Banners, bumper stickers, T shirts, flags will be waving all around the globe, as sports fan shout and scream from the top of their lungs, supporting their favorite teams. In a three week span, endurance, wits and skills, will be displayed, and the team that shows the best of these qualities along with the will to win, has the right to be called the best in the world. I know for me as a youth growing up in Jamaica, the top teams that I rooted for were, Jamaica, Brazil Argentina, Ghana, and Nigeria. This time around, I am picking the US. The World Cup for me is something that means honor, because it’s a time when people forget about their problems and enjoy themselves. As soccer memorabilias will be the top priorities on sports fan minds, as pride is shown globally. Bars will be filled, grills will be turned on, and words will be exchange, for the love of the sport that brings happiness to so many. The representation of why many love their country for the same reason why I love mine will be televised and broadcast. There is no greater feeling then wearing the colors of your country, that you love honor and respect, knowing you’re recognized for being the best in the world at that particular moment, until your team has to prove itself all over again, in another four years. Good luck to all the teams that qualified. Best of luck to the USA...Tune in June 11.
