About Carlos »

I am from Brasilia, Brazil and have been a huge soccer fan my whole life. My fondest early memory is of Brazil winning the World Cup in 94 in a penalty shoot-out. I enjoy F1, though I have to admit I am more of an observer than an expert. All sports have value to me. The culture that surrounds sport is fascinating and contagious. I look forward to learning more about new sports as well as sharing some of my thoughts as well.
