NFLs explosive growth in Brazil (1 Viewer)

Well I guess there's your future talentbase when American high schools start shutting down their programs due to insurance costs.

Now let's meet our starters:

...at quarterback, Romodinho

 
They play it in Mexico too. But it seems like in Mexico it's sport that is largely played by the elite of the country. I can't see it becoming a mass appeal sport with cost of equipment and the eating requirements. The average Brazilian is much slimmer than the average American.

 
A Garota de Ipanema / The Girl from Ipanema

Olha, que coisa mais linda,

Mais cheia de graça,

É ela, menina, que vem e que passa,

Num doce balanço, a caminho do mar.

Look, such a sight, so beautiful,

So filled with grace,

It;s her, this girl who comes and who passes,

With a sweet swing, on her way to the sea.

Moça do corpo dourado,

Do sol de Ipanema,

O seu balançado

É mais que um poema

É a coisa mais linda

Que eu já vi passar

Girl with body of gold

From the sun of Ipamena,

Her swing

Is more than a poem,

Is a sight more beautiful

Than I have ever seen pass by.

Ah, por que estou tão sozinho?

Ah, por que tudo é tão triste?

Ah, a beleza que existe

A beleza que não é só minha,

Que também passa sozinha.

Ah, why am I so alone?

Why is there so much sadness?

This beauty that exists,

This beauty that is not only mine,

That also passes by alone.

Ah, se ela soubesse

Que quando ela passa,

O mundo sorrindo

Se enche de graça

E fica mais lindo

Por causa do amor.

Ah, if she but knew,

That when she passes by,

The world smiles,

Is filled with grace,

And becomes more beautiful,

Because of love.

Tall and tan and young and lovely

The girl from Ipanema goes walking

And when she passes, each one she passes goes - ah

When she walks, she's like a samba

That swings so cool and sways so gentle

That when she passes, each one she passes goes - ooh

(Ooh) But I watch her so sadly

How can I tell her I love her

Yes I would give my heart gladly

But each day, when she walks to the sea

She looks straight ahead, not at me

Tall, (and) tan, (and) young, (and) lovely

The girl from Ipanema goes walking

And when she passes, I smile - but she doesn't see (doesn't see)

(She just doesn't see, she never sees me...)
