Mandingas. Hmm...

Watching Brazil play against North Korea last night was inspiring. Sure, it took a while for their domination to set in but when it did, holy crap were those goals beautiful! No one scores like the Brazilians. No one. Makes one wonder how they get so damn good. Maybe it's the religious level of superstition and commitment surrounding the beautiful game over there. Maybe it's their "mandingas" - their lucky charms - that they carry everywhere they go. Or maybe they're just super-bionic cyborgs sent from the future to school the world at football. All I know is this six minute video may have an answer or two. Thank you NIKE.
