Ok, the reason I hate Brazil, is many fold, and probably most of them are my blinkered view of things. I did not always hate them, that 3-2 win against Italy in the World Cup was a great performance. Socrates, Jaziniho (spelling), Zico, and the like, great team.
So here it goes, everybody loves them, (except me), they can do no wrong. They can kick the sh*t out of some one and plead innocence, as if the fouled player asked for it, and the Ref buys it. But if they are slightly touched, over they go, over and over and over… and the Ref always seems to buy this too, because they are from Brazil, they are an artist and the opposition are performing a heinous crime befouling their masterpiece.
They give the feeling that they have a right to win everything, and who on earth has given the opposition the audacity to be on the same pitch, as Brazil.
Commentators love them, fawning, creeping, salivating over everything they do, even if it is a balls up, still they did it with such class.
When they go out of a competition, it’s always a ‘shock’, a loss to the competition! Why? Who cares? When England did not qualify for Euro 2008, that was a great competition.
Everyone seems to have a Brazil shirt, Glory Hunters? I’m English, and I will not buy or wear another countries shirt. Would I wear another’s clubs shirt other than Liverpool? NO, so why wear another country’s shirt?
They play in Nike shirts, now I have stated on other posts/threads that I do not like Nike. Yes I know they make some beautiful kits, (except the scums, theirs always seem to be dreadful
). This is just a personal quirk of mine, and if Liverpool ever played in Nike, well what a quandary that would be
But the Nike World Tour, what was that all about. Brazil, playing 3rd rate teams, who all happened to play in Nike, with Nike advertising, Nike balls, and again everyone says how wonderful Brazil are! But they were playing poor teams, and these went into FIFA rankings, a made up hand picked tour FFS.
Any player from Brazil, MUST be good and revered, why? Because they come from Brazil, and they play beautiful football! That’s why.
So these are the reasons I Hate Brazil. My own blinkered paranoid views, and no one else’s, if you need paranoid views get your own.
