Multiplication Chart 1 30

Reason and viscera

ascend this very good column in The Daily (www.ladiaria.com) on June 17, written by the journalist of "13-0" Gonzalo Delgado, after he won the tenant Uruguay South Africa 3-0 in his second World Cup match.

reading it today, we better understand the reasons why Uruguay came so far in the World Cup (Semi Finals), beyond the natural characteristics of our private passion for the sky, love the shirt, resiliency and Creole charrúa claw, which were amply demonstrated in every game.

This success has more to do with a long process working, serious and reasonable teaching that goes beyond football and that applies to all walks of life.

Hopefully we provide an example for the future ...





reason and viscera
By: Gonzalo Delgado


Martina says she had never seen a goal by Uruguay in school. I get excited, but then try to explain. Treatment of dimensions, but not successful. She said that some classmates wept with goals. I try to explain, but does not care. I try to rationalize my message for her to become visceral and enjoyment. Martina has eight years and the mother tells me to stop "thinking like a journalist," to explain rationally what she and her colleagues "felt." Think, feel, explain, enjoy or suffer. Reason and viscera.

Why go on the side of reason amid the revelry? Because that's the reason for this joy.

four years ago, with Uruguay chewing the anger of being out of Germany 2006, Tabarez began his second stage in the selection of suspicions and doubts surrounded the football environment. Carrying the stigma of Italia 90 and the media concerning (at least massive) open against. And with economic deprivation and mental AUF. But did build a process and a group of players who believed in him. Along the way, after the first defeat by Peru in the Copa America in 2007, first official test Tabarez, then president of the AUF, José Luis Corbo said that without winning the next game would have to make major changes, Uruguay ended in the semifinals and survived the process. Said the players were not "swallowed" a Tabarez, who had bad vibes before traveling to Peru, after that of Regueiro is a wave of resignations came to the selection. It was said that Tabarez was "very European" and they do not came to the players, who lacked passion, which had not won because she had black players ...

But betting continued Tabárez things difficult to sustain in Uruguay: a long-term, generational change included a comprehensive and collective including all categories of selection (for adults and juveniles).

continued laburando and believing, and the players. And she continued hitting. After losing in Buenos Aires, to tie with Chile in Montevideo, Venezuela does not win, losing in Lima Peru with a deleted. It is true that criminal that Ecuador may have depended go to the World, and ultimately that there's victory yesterday. But as I thought and I said this same before and after those instances, and discussed it with other journalists in different cities, while licking their chops waiting for that defeat offal promised to foot the coach, I can repeat now. A long-term serious work does not guarantee the results but a long-term, with a serious team work (including, for example, Diego Aguirre in the sub 20, chosen by Tabarez), earning the respect of players work and the link, and not shouting from the bench during the game for the cameras, you have more chance to get it.

reason Betting and long term. Leaving the passion for the fans, the reason and work for technicians and managers. And for journalists who need to understand some day that are just fans. And I do not include jugglers, they will have to wait at least until the next failure. Those in more than a hotel hall I heard them say after a defeat: "Oh, I kill Tabárez morning."

I do not know how far the selection, or if it reaches me today morning I look little. But, though not assured, not all of the above would not have a 3 to 0 to South Africa. Martina Ni have seen the goals from Forlan, neither mother I ask you not to rationalize it ... or one of my most distinguished colleagues would be taking a beer while writing this Castel celebrating what boycotted. To your health, too, and of those who look beyond and bring reason to this game beautifully passionate.

Cruise Ship Auditions Sydney

The list is the World Cup is over. Viva World Cup! Gustavo and Franklin

Official 2010 FIFA World Cup match ball mikkelz Image by via Flickr

Well ... survived another World Cup.

This tournament, the last I hope to see as a single man, has seen accomplishes two things that I've been always linked it yet: the elimination of team that in the first round (though it was a joy to consumptive, because affected people close to me) and the final was contested by teams that had never been there. Sure, computers are one way or another are always among the favorites, so there is that it feels completely new (can you imagine if it were a Paraguay-Ghana final?), But hey, the Netherlands had not reached since 1978, and Spain had never been there. We can not complain.

Well ... yes, yes we can.

Like everything else, the World Cup 2010 has been its white and black, his strange and cool thing, historical moments and things that we all hope to forget. Here is my impression of this World Cup, a perspective of someone who is not fan of football but he enjoys it and rumbón tripea the group that was seen during this month.

GOOD

Zero terrorism. Al-Qaeda had threatened to violent acts, specifically during the US-England match in the first round. Before, because anything could happen days earlier, a white supremacist White had been murdered on his farm, and perhaps had reprisals. I do not know if it was all that was spent on security or what, but the fact is that all the games passed without problem, the worst thing that happened was a lunatic who slipped into the realm of Spain-Germany game on Wednesday.

The good performance of American teams (especially Latinos). Virtually all computers CONCACAF (that is Confederation of Football Associations of North, Central and South America just in case) and CONMEBOL (South American Football Confederation) went early in the round robin group, and even the only one not passed (Honduras) gave a great game against Switzerland in their last date. In fact, this group where these two teams were so evenly matched that it was finished in those two finals which decided who would. For the rest, Paraguay, United States, Mexico, Uruguay, Argentina and Brazil went almost seamlessly to the second round, and especially Uruguay will fight for third with Germany on Saturday more than it deserves (though of course, is the third place As ...). What only Argentina, Uruguay and Brazil went to the quarterfinals? Who cares? None proved to bad football, in the vast majority of cases, not so much that they lost but won their opposites. Which have screwed up Brazil and Argentina in their last game itself is another story.

(Note: we've won all these teams. Hell, we beat Uruguay to 3 to 0 once. Uruguay, which will third place to fight the monsters in Germany. What the hell happens, Vinotinto? demand to see Venezuela in Brazil 2014! I want runny as Jon Tae-Se when he heard his anthem North Korea when you hear my "Gloria al Bravo Pueblo!)

Ghana and Switzerland. For me, the two surprises of this World Cup. First, always talk about any African team that we want to reach the final, maybe even win it. Cameroon gave high hopes for '94 U.S., Senegal and Nigeria in Korea-Japan 2002. But this year there was only one team "house" that really gave the size of the continent. Without a Samuel Eto'o or a Didier Drogba, Ghana's panas exceeded obvious jokes that the name of your country can give and which has been launched the game exciting tournament when they face Uruguay in the quarterfinals. Would it be different if history Asamoah Gyan had not missed the penalty that would have given victory to secure his team to face Netherlands in the semifinal? As regards Switzerland, consider this: if Spain wins the final Sunday, the Swiss people have had the nerve to say they beat the world champions when they played for the first time. Certainly had the best defense in the first phase, and had only one goal against (when they lost to Chile, and will that made them sweat), which were joined by 559 minutes without the arch Diego Benaglio has been passed. And by the way, Benaglio was for me the best goalkeeper of the tournament, even more than the Nigerian Vincent Enyeama. Is a demonstration of the randomness that football can be a team that only lost once in the first round not exceeded.

The real goal of Carlos Tevez. I guess the guy wanted to take his streak of having scored a goal offside clariiita. But the second goal that the Argentine player of Manchester City, the third in the albiceleste was absolutely anthology, a shot from almost half of the field that almost punched a hole in the network. I was livid with the arrechera by injustice against Mexico, one of those teams to whom I have sympathy for some time, together with the injustice against England, but that goal by Tevez need my recognition. To me, the goal of the World Cup so far.

early eliminations. respect for my inner circle, do not mention one of those killed in the Cup but now all my friends and acquaintances know what my computer wakes dislikes. I do not like his style of play, I do not like the kind of people that many of his players, and it is too easy to get to fans who bleed every time you lose. But what of France this year, I enjoyed much more, to be honest. That thing became a real novel. There was no half stars who won the cup at home in 1998, and since his controversial qualifier against Ireland knew they were coming in low spirits. Add it to the madness of coach Raymond Domenech , which reinforced the cliché of Hollywood sells French Paju, and France was a major disgrace to the header 2006. I gave a pity, because it's not as if France did not have talent, but still. Largo, dammit.

Octopus Paul. Octopuses have always seemed fascinating creatures, by his obvious intelligence, his ability to camouflage (extreme in some cases) and aliens who are. But Paul became a star now joining the group of phenomena "psychics" that human beings both like to speculate, if at all for gossip. But ...

BAD

Octopus Paul. ... hell, I have crabs to octopus blessed. Of course not missed, five seconds the pulpit 'er pussy show some kind of predictive power (true or not) when applications began to Venezuela to bring you already know. And I've read comments from people to prove if the octopus can predict any pod has become essential. To a page that they opened to ask questions. And sáquenmelo and leave the poor Paul in peace, work for their better future instead of asking a pe'azo 'and octopus are the predict.

referees. FIFA, for the love of God and your mother, is it that in 2014 got it that technology is not going to make people discuss the next day or less sold fewer newspapers? The U.S. goal disallowed against Algeria, which had given them a 3-2 win instead of tie during the playoffs, the goal was not England but came to the arc clearly, that would have given the 2-2 draw against Germany in the second round, the blatant offside goal from Carlos Tevez for Argentina against Mexico in Octavio, all situations that had been resolved by reviewing the instant replay, to say the three most notable examples. What the hell wait, I ask? A strike?

Vuvuzela. Aaaaargh! It's like a fucking swarm of bees on methamphetamines! The traditional horn is used as a celebration in South Africa, so you have to respect. But hand, do not tell me if that thing you get to introduce the rest of the world. By God, now you can even make the noise of the ill-gotten cornetitas on YouTube videos if you want. Is not that a sign of the Apocalypse?

Cristiano Ronaldo. This tournament was marked by leaving many "Gods of Olympus" of football on the ground. Fabio Cannavaro, Didier Drogba, Wayne Rooney, Kaka, Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo were completely overshadowed. The only one I can forgive himself is Messi, who even failed goal itself was put into action all the time, creating opportunities for his teammates. Until Drogba got a very good goal against North Korea on the last day of the Ivory Coast in the playoffs. But while he also scored the seventh goal for Portugal against the North Koreans themselves, and one of the strangest goals of all the World happened to me was that Cristiano Ronaldo took pity on this occasion. As once said that Megan Fox had to remain model and not as an actress, and increasingly I am convinced that this cord should stay with their campaign of Calvin Klein. The moments that showed that Real Madrid paid good money for this man were minimal, and the indulgence of spoiled children attack came after he eliminated Spain to Portugal in the second round was the straw that broke the camel. Grows, carajito, then you might have a future in a man's game.

"Candy Man." Is my idea, and this term was invented for this World Cup? Is used, so derogatory justified or not, to call those who do not follow any particular team, the "cuddle" which is winning, or just want to fuck and the commotion of a celebration. In other words, if for you the World did not end when removed to Italy, Mexico, Brazil or Argentina, you're a baker. That claim will always be, no doubt, but now have released a name (insult) baffles me. I am one who has received it (without much malice, to be honest) because I've always gone to Brazil and this year also decided to support Spain. True, I have only enough knowledge to know players where they play some of the most prominent, and indeed, Brazil has never quite convinced me in this tournament, but buddy, what harm are we doing? This is like that I Arreche with people going to the movies because they have never heard of Goddard. Sure, things seem that Brazil, for example, "because they are Latinos, because they are the best because the guy's cousin orthodontist serving the neighbor of my mother is Brazilian" are excuses more than trivial, let alone justify the insults We have come elsewhere in the world without defend is unacceptable, but think about this: I'm trypan the World to the end, as you still crying in the corner that if the arbitrators, if envy, that if bad luck, if I do not know. I respect your position, but to do it for sore losers (and see that there are a few), nothing, its chalequeo aguántense his team did not arrive. I have the added that the mine itself. ;)

Well, as I said, that survive another World Cup. Leave us feeling empty, fear that when it comes on Sunday at five in the afternoon we realize that it's over. We have the consolation that in 2011 is Cup America in 2012 Euro, English league, European and Rey all year, and good to 2014 there is a bean species. Meanwhile, corduroy, begin to give more support to the Vinotinto , that if we continue to show that you are throwing ball finish we have to convince people that not everything can be win-win. They deserve our support any more for the ball you are throwing. (And it sounds: ♫ know what can / believe that we can / pintaaaarseee the caraaaaa / color hope ... ♫) XD

What do you remember most of South Africa 2010? What is the they will taste better? What do you most like to forget?
