It is here!
After waiting for approximately 9 years, sitting through a "f@#% load" of traffic, the World cup is finally here. South Africans have a golden opportunity to witness and host the grandest stage of them all. This comes after various painstaking bids of acquiring the World Cup. I remember watching Fifa Prez, Mr Sep Blatter pulling Germany's name during the 2006 bid. Boy were South Africans pissed, especially at one particular New Zealander from the committee who refused to vote. What was his name again? Anywho the point is that we got the World Cup, the question is... will we get to keep it? For most soccer enthusiasts, the answer is no, for good reason as well. Bafana Bafana has had a string of coaches from varying backgrounds trying to teach them how to play football. Carlos Alberto Parreira, who resigned initially in 2008 came back after his replacement couldn't communicate with his players... and vice versa. After 10 wins and a loss in the last 3 months, Bafana Bafana are ready to take on the world. Lets hope they do us proud!
