but your sons will be kept away from the really scary stuff. The lack of preparation is probably more for the spectators than the players and most of the really scary people will be home watching footie on their TV sets. Leftist governments have run basic services like electricity, water and sewage to the slums.

The worst part for you is that they'll probably discover feijoada and expect you to prepare it.
