I be winkin' through the scope
Pretend like BRIC really is that shyt, brehsI always had a feeling that Brazil getting the WC and the Olympics was like they wanted to show the world that they had arrived on the stage of big nations, and somewhat felt they were moving too fast. I've never been to Brazil but something told me they were growing too fast and it was an appearance, the issues surrounding the WC and this now historic collapse feel that way now.
Anyway when taking into account all the historical ramifications, the fact that Brazil basically is futbol, I can't imagine anything similar. Strictly on the field/court though, the way the Heat got dismantled this year is kind of close imo. Hell even how the Lakers got exposed by Dallas in 2011. But it doesn't come close when taking all the rest into account.
