.......DO YOU NOT READ!?

Do you?

There's other sponsors.  So unless that letter was written to all of the sponsors (which I'm assuming is a possibility) then why single out Coca Cola, out of the sponsors?

I wouldn't be surprised if the letter was sent to all the sponsors, but Coca-Cola is being showcased here simply because of how much their reply missed the point.


That makes sense, then.

Poor Brazil...
That said, I've stopped trying to anticipate what people around here want a while ago, I've found it makes things smoother.

Woo, Germany won!

Apologies to Sigmaleph, I just really like Germany.

Respect to Argentina, you made us truly fight for it.

Germany won, which means Miroslav Klose doesn't have the dubious distinction of being the leading scorer in World Cup Finals without having won a World Cup.

Argentina will probably have Messi in 2018, which is why I was cheering for Germany--I want both Klose and Messi to win one, but Messi can win the next one.

When is James Rodriguez going to get his trophy?

That'd be Brazil, not Argentina.
