2. Glenn Beck on the World Cup

Eduardo Galeano wrote in Soccer in Sun and Shadow: "Years have gone by and I've finally learned to accept myself for who I am: a beggar for good soccer. I go about the world, hand outstretched, and in the stadiums I plead: 'A pretty move, for the love of God.' And when good soccer happens, I give thanks for the miracle and I don't give a damn which team or country performs it."
Personally, I find this brand of cosmopolitan appreciation very compelling. In that vein, fans of the beautiful game have to be happy with Spain's success.
