Write for this Blog!
By: Bruno Romani | August 24th, 2007Ok, so this is the deal. I’m going to be away from this blog on the first week of September, and I want someone to keep it running. I’m going to be able to check emails, but won’t have time to write posts and look for news. So, whoever gets this amazing job will send me their articles through email and I’ll publish it with credits and all that. If you have a blog, I’ll post credits to your blog too. In order to decide who gets to do this, I’ll post a quiz about Brazilian football. Whoever gets the biggest amount of right questions will be for one week creating content for this marvelous site. I’ll announce the winner on Thursday or Friday.
The Quizz
1) Who are the two players TelĂŞ Santana cut from the roster before the 1986 World Cup?
2) In 1995, a defender from a Brazilian club had a diarrhea in the pitch during a match of a South-American competition, and had to run to the locker’s room. Who is this man?
3) What Brazilian club was known in the 60’s and 70’s by the motto “It makes me laugh” (Faz-me rir)?
4)What is the name of Luiz Felipe Scolari’s loyal assistant?
5) What referee was accused of working drunk in 1995?
6) Who is the Brazilian player who flirted (and possibly fucked) a flight attendant when the national team visited Uruguay in 2001?
7) What did Neto say after scoring with a bicycle-kick in the first-leg of the 1988 Paulista Championship?
8 ) Who is the author of the phrase: “a derby is a derby and vice-versa?”
9) Who Portuguesa will never forget in the semifinals of the 1998 Paulista Championship?
10) What did Edmundo do to get imprisoned in a hotel room in Ecuador in 1994?
11) What’s the name of the gambling boss (bicheiro) who supported Bangu in the 1980’s?
12) What journalist, in a famous conspiracy theory, supposedly had fucked Ronaldo’s girlfriend during the 1998 World Cup?
13) What animal did Viola imitate in the first-leg of the finals of the 1993 Paulista Championship?
14) Which sponsor did suddenly appear on Vasco’s shirt in the second-leg of the Copa João Havelange?
15) Who was the veteran goal-keeper from Bahia who had the ball stolen by a young Ronaldo in a match for 1993 Campeonato Brasileiro?

Sorry Bruno — I don’t have a fraction of the knowledge necessary. Seems you’re irreplaceable; other writers are so damned polite and Politically Correct, they’re afraid to simply state the facts as they see them. They could also be called cowards…
No, I genuinely hope someone with the needed insight will step up — but I fear that he/she (see, that’s Political Correctness!!) will be severely lacking….Posted from

If you are unable to find someone Bruno, I’ll be willing to do it. Just tell me how often I should post and what I should focus on. I’m well informed on Brazilian football and should be able to do at least a descent job.

what makes you feel I am anti-Gremio?
Only one question trully relates to it. Don’t act like a typical brazilian fan here because we don’t need that. Go and look for other articles, specially in the libertadores, about your club, which, by the way, I have a very close relationship. But that’s another story.
so you’re applying to the writer position?
