yes ronaldinho is a good player but too much shown in the media
there are plenty like him or better
sponsors and teams and advertisement all the same purpose:
PROFIT
If brazil wins this cup it would the greatest steal of the century:
fat ronaldo
old R. Carlos
non talented Dida
Kaka' maybe more motivated than usual (no it's a dream)
Ronaldinho mr give me the ball so i'll make the show
etc.........

The first 3 World Cups Brazil won were beautifull, but played in a completly different era. Sure there's money involved today, which mass sport don't have??
Point is: Football Art stills wins, and Brazil it's here to prove. You will NEVER watch a boring Brazil vs Argentina game. Both teams plays beautifull to watch soccer, and both teams plays in the attack. THAT's soccer.
By the way, what you do in the football World, if you don't mind saying? I know MANY people .

I think Brazil has close to 100 million so you have a better chance would you not conceed.
Yes Robinho has also got huge potential as Zidane has stated this week. But if Messe is fit I'd have him in my team before him.

My vote goes with Cap. What is the national sport there anyway?

Steal?? Why steal?? What a stupid comment. If the best team in the World today wins, there's no steal.
Fat Ronaldo, Old R. Carlos and MANY others ....stills kicking @ss!!
