this was the mood out on the Western Main Road St James, Trinidad 2006, after our team 'Soca Warriors' qualified to go to Germay
Today i'm thinking 'Soca Warriors', 'settlement', and 'YEAH!!!'
Mostly everyone, if not everyone, is looking at World Cup 2014 this July. Which makes for an eclectic mix of tears, hugs, waves, colours, hurts and joys. Here in T&T there's joy in the camp of our Soca Warriors, who are in the news, not as players, but as receivers. Happily so; the long outstanding monetary payment owed to them, has been settled.
And now looking forward, Yeah!!! Germany/Argentina today; may the best played team win.

Yes, it looks like Germany became the best team at this moment in time. I will say, though, I do love the level of sportsmanship that I see on the field. Quite the contrast to football here in the USA.
