The anti-Brazil stuff is going too far now I think. It would have brought so much happiness to so many people in a way that a World Cup win for other countries simply can't. The vast majority 200 million people who love football in a way no-one else does, seeing their team win in their home country, would have been caue for the biggest party mankind has ever seen. Argentines spent decades being smug and looking down on Brazilians, considering themselves to be "European" and "not really South American". Anyone who wants to see the most arrogant country in Latin America rubbing it in to their historically poorer neighbours might want to reconsider.
Be pissed off at FIFA for their disgusting corruption and disregard for host nation's well-being, be angry at the Brazilian governments capituation to FIFA demands, support another underdog if you must, support the protests as I do, but give Brazilians a break as well. A better bunch of people you'll never meet, not in my experience at least, and we should be grateful, not hostile, to the fact that a developing country rather than a rich one has been the greatest nation in the history of the sport.
Come on Germany.
