Its official, my internal clock has been programmed since June 11th to catch FIFA fever, aka The World Cup, which is hosted globally every four years. I have yet to set an alarm, I just wake up at un-summery hours, usually 7AM, to watch any match that is aired.This years World Cup is the first to be played on African soil, which has single handily placed this years games as the most epic and anticipated yet. South Africa has prepared years to convert, disguise and portray their nations unjustice and apartied past with a multi million dollar stadium and numerous other buildiing development in order to harbour the millions of futbol fans that have travelled worldwide to their scenically beautiful country. South Africans have spread the popularity of the vuvezelas, horn -noise maker that makes each match sound like its being played in a bee/hornet/wasp nest. Super obnoxious but not to the point of banishment, sorry annoyed fans. But despite the vuvuzelas, outcomes from numerous matches have given ESPN and national and local media, and even fans in Fort Collins, ampable amounts of material to discuss and disect four hours. From unexpected ties and admiral victories to downright life ruining referring it has been hard not to watch and follow any nation. Futbol the most accepted internationally played sport ever has provided so much promise to countries that seek postive futures, and place their hope within the nations atheletes. I made my FIFA bracket a couple of weeks ago, I hope USA continues to perform like olympians but my bracket reads Espana only time will tell!
