All Things Chill

I’m not into soccer very much, or for sports for that matter. Hell, I’m kinda averse to anything that requires physical activity (KEEP IT CLEAN PEOPLES lol). But let me tell you something, hitting up the International friendly Brazil Vs. Canada match at Qwest field was mighty fun. THANKS DON FOR THE INVITE (and also for taking a totally “HEYYY LADIESSSS” picture of us). It completely blasted away my preconceived stereotypes of what watching a soccer game is: BORING. lawl.

Honestly, I almost ripped off my “close as I could get to wearing Brazil yellow” t-shirt and supported the Canadian team! I haven’t WOO’d that much in QUITE a while. That is… until this happened (via ESPN soccer):

Robinho pounced on a defensive mistake to give Brazil a 3-2 win over Canada in a friendly on Saturday, their first win in three meetings against the North Americans.

The result was rough justice on Canada, who twice came from behind to equalise and could have gone in at halftime with a handsome lead.

Boo. It was one hell of an exciting time though! Heartbreaking, but exciting. Now that Microsoft is sponsoring The Seattle Sound (our new MLS team in 2009), I’ll definitely try and watch more games through out the season. I gots to get me one of those soccer jerseys!

OOh! I almost forgot. I made a quick video of what ELOTES is. WTF is it? Watch the video or hit the WIKI to make your next BBQ totally worth the wait. Bonus points if you go to a market in the midwest for fresh 20 EARS for $5! Youtube link here. w00p w00p!

Soccer? YES.
