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.
