Don't mess with Keano! I thought this whole story was pretty funny so I figured that I would
include a link for it so that hopefully everyone gets a chance to see some of the nonsense that
goes on with the World Cup qualifiers. Basically, Jack Warner the FIFA Vice-President and CONCACAF
President who is from the Trinidad and Tobago complained because Sunderland (managed by Roy Keane)
didn't release Dwight Yorke for the match against the United States on Wednesday.
If you've heard of that name already then you don't really need to read this column. If you haven't
heard of that name and you are a soccer then you do need to read this column. Brian Glanville is
the greatest sports journalist in the English-Speaking world. I have never read a better writer on
any sport then Brian's writing on soccer.
No its not an inflatable model of Sepp Blatter but a green haired leopard called "
Zakumi".The organisers correctly figured that Blatter was inflated enough already and hence
went for the leopard.
Zakumi - the ZA stands for South Africa while kumi means ten in assorted African languages.
