The most dramatic story of this World Cup is not Germany's superb play but the shock and utter embarrassment of the host country, Brazil, losing terribly on the world stage. A lot of people don't realize how Brazilians live and breather their football like folks in Alabama live and breathe Southern football. The anger and debate concerning this fiasco will rage for the next four years and will be remembered forever.
"Brazil endured their first set of back-to-back losses on home soil since 1940, losing the third place game at their World Cup to the Netherlands 3-0 in Brasilia on Saturday night.
The result concluded what local media have called an "$11 billion nightmare" for the hosts, and while that seems cruel considering the great entertainment we have seen here this summer, there is no mistaking the depth of Brazil's humiliation."
