Neymar Jr.
With some dignity, our women lost – narrowly – against the Japanese.
Our men also lost, against Bolivia. But at least we’re not from Brazil. The best Brazilian, Neymar, is a twerp. Brazil is now a nation of twerps. During the Copa América, Neymar has been carded for these offenses:
Against Peru: clearing away the freekick foam.
Against Colombia: scoring with his hand (or trying to) and brawling, petulantly, post-match.
I grew up watching the likes of Romário, Ronaldo, Rivaldo, and Ronaldinho. But now it’s Neymar. Brazil, what happened?
