Everyone Likes a Winner – Spain Wins the World Cup, and Why It May Matter

I wonder: If the good people of Spain put as much energy into fixing the economy as we did into watching and celebrating the World Cup, would we be able to pull ourselves out of the mess we are in?

And finally, after watching the events of the last three days, how am I suppose to take sports and politics seriously? I am not sure I ever did to begin with.
