SPAIN WINS THE 2010 FIFA WORLD CUP IN 6 HOURS, REGARDLESS

by Lara on July 11th, 2010

IT IS 2 PM PARIS TIME. THE WORLD CUP FINALE IS AT 8 PM. I HAVE NOT SWITCHED ON THE TV, AND I DO NOT WANT TO HEAR ANY COMMENT ABOUT FOOTBALL TODAY BEFORE THE MATCH. AS I WROTE IN MYSPACE MOOD UPDATES, IT IS RUDE TO EXPECT THAT PRESIDENT NELSON MANDELA HAS TO ATTEND THIS MATCH. WHY? AFTER THE TRAGEDY IN HIS FAMILY RIGHT BEFORE THE WORLD CUP, HE HAS THE RIGHT TO BE IN HARMONEY WITH HIS OWN MOURNING PHASE. IMAGINE THE SAME TRAGEDY WITH ANY EUROPEAN PRESIDENT OR ROYALTY (WHICH I HOPE ABSOLUTELY NOT), WILL YOU STILL BE EXPECTING HIM OR HER TO ATTEND A JOYFUL EVENT? AFRICANS HAVE STRICTER MOURNING PHASES. GIVE HIM A BREAK. PRESIDENT MANDELA CAN SALUTE EVERY BODY IN THE STADIUM ON A SCREEN. IF THE PRESSURE CONTINUES, HE MIGHT JUST SKIP THE SATELITTE APPEARANCE TOO.

NO MATTER THE RESULTS, SPAIN IS THE WINNER OF WORLD CUP TO ME. I WANT SPANISH PLAYERS NOT TO TAKE MY WISH FOR GRANTED, GO THERE AND PLAY THEIR BEST GAME, IN CASE THEY HEAR ABOUT THIS ARTICLE. I KNOW I HAVE THE DUTCH NATIONALITY THAT I AM DIVORCING AS SOON AS I CAN BECAUSE I HAVE NOTHING IN COMMON WITH THE NETHERLANDS OF 2010. WHEN I WAS IN EASTERN NETHERLANDS, I HAVE SPENT EVERY DAY HEARING DUtCH PEOPLE CALLING AFRICANS AND BLACK PEOPLE, ANIMALS IN THEIR JOKES AT THE OFFICES OR ON TV. THERE ARE A LOT OF DUTCH PEOPLE WHO ARE NOT RACIST, UNFORTUNATELY THAT IS A SMALL MINORITY. WHY DID THE NETHERLANDS EVEN GO TO SOUTH AFRICA TO PLAY SOCCER? ANOTHER CONSTATATION. I HAVE BEEN WITNESSING THEIR PLAYERS4 ENERGY INCREASE DURING ALL MATCHES, SOMETHING THAT IS CONTRARY TO BODY’S METABOLISM. DESPITE ALL THIS I WISH THEM THE BEST.

SPAIN IS THE WINNER OF THE WORLD CUP TO ME IN SO MANY WAYS. I WILL NOT FALL APART IF SPAIN LOSE, BECAUSE THEY WILL REMAIN THE NUMBER ONES TODAY AND FOREVER TO ME. I CAN CHOOSE MY OWN REALITY. SAYING THIS, I CAN WATCH THE MATCH OR NOT WITHOUT BEING NERVOUS.
