Let's All Be Brazilian!

Just as a follow up to the game we played at the weekend against the "Brazilian select". I've often wondered if the great names their players have, help them play better football. You know, Pele, Zico, Kaka, Rivaldo, Cafu, Ronaldo and Ronaldinho. So many great "one name" players compared to our team. Well, we have "Carlito" but the rest is just a collection of Ron's and Rob's. So my bro found a great website that converts your name to a Brazilian name!

http://www.minimalsworld.net/BrazilName/brazilian.shtml

I put a few of our players names in and maybe you can guess who they are:

Gito
Tenbrinhosa
Houstisco
Jacquisco
Abbasson
Ronniildo
Adnanisco
Tinho
Barbhino Santos

How could we possibly be beaten with a line up like that?

One day left to vote.....it's getting close now!!

  2. I just noticed i left off an s at the end of Jacque(s) name which makes a huge difference to his Brazilian name!
    You are now Fribeca instead of Jaquisco!!

  5. That was true for me, but I'm trying to understand how you got so many
    votes!

    Anyone hear from Coach Tom?

    Earth to Tom, earth to Tom.....come in, Tom......

  11. true that.....Looks like you picked up another vote too....only one
    behind Tenbrinhosa with less than 2 hours to go.....Jacques a distant
    third and Tom is ....well....fourth...maybe that's why he is not
    replying to any e-mails?

  12. I just tested my theory! The ballot has been rigged!! I didn't got the
    chance to vote for anybody so far, yet I apparently voted for
    Ronnildokakapito (a.k.a Ron). Not that he didn't deserve my vote, but I
    believe Jody also deserve my vote, and the other midfielders as well.
    I'm a teamplayer and believe that our core was the best unit all
    together... (that should give me a few more vote????? O:-) )
    Unless I'm sleep walking at work.... the ballot is fixed. I demand an
    official recount.....

  13. Fribeca

    if you voted for Rondiino Sosa then you have used your vote! this is a
    good democracy, unless you want to pay some bribe money for more
    votes.....

  15. I already voted twice. I don't think I can help anybody out here. I used my sons computer and it worked out nicely for the second vote.

  16. Just to let you know that votes are only valid until every team player is voting once and a player can't vote for himself either. John should add a column with list of all players who are voting and each player should check the box that they have voted. This way we know who has voted or not and keep track of it that way. This is a real democractic way of voting...otherwise the rest is just about having fun and blogging......

    By the way it doesn't appear there is going to be a game with any team this Sunday. But we can alway play the Clinton pick up game in Clinton at the same location but it start at 9:30 not 10.

    Let me know if you are going to be there and we can plan bringing some beer

    Tom
