world cup

Busy, busy sports weekend, but first, rest in peace to Michael Jackson. For all his legal issues and perceivably strange quirks, at one time the dude truly reigned as the king of pop, and listening to his music over the weekend made me remember how his songs influenced almost every stage of my life. Back to our busy sports weekend though, which included the culmination of MLB inter-league play, the middle rounds of Wimbledon (tennis has some blazin’ stars, sorry), and the one topic that needs discussin’ – the Confederations Cup finals.

Today’s RBI features the two sports most closely associated with Latinos: beisbol and futbol. Not intentional, just the way things worked out…although we did kind of need a break from basketball (that being said, look for a Carmelo Anthony blog tomorrow).
