Memo to Sanda: Evolution is supposed to happen to everyone. So sorry you missed the bus.
We are all very sorry for being Jewish Sonda! Now choke on your bile and get out.
Leonard,
Brazil won the World Cup in 1994 and 2002 and was in the Championship Game in 1998. In addition, they won the Copa America (South American Championship) in 1997, 2005 and 2007 and the Confederations Cup (a tournament of the Continental Champions) in 2005. In the last four years they have had the highest average ranking in the world. It's called Google, Leonard.
Wouldn't be the Leonard Lopate show if it he didn't have a story focusing on something Jewish.
