So is it bad that i find myself rooting for the majority black teams in the World Cup. Granted most of them are from Africa, a continent i like to root for in other contexts (or from Trinidad and Tobago, the smallest country represented). Thus there is an underdog factor as well. Nonetheless, if it was an underdog nonblack team, i'm not sure i'd be as excited. Hmm...

(I'm also torn about rooting for Ghana or the US in their upcoming faceoff, since i think at this point at most one of those two can advance).
