Putin Trump and WC By Gado Published by the good folks at The Elephant. The Elephant is a platform for engaging citizens to reflect, re-member and re-envision their society by interrogating the past, the present, to fashion a future. Follow us on Twitter. Putin Trump and WC By Gado I first started suspecting that I was a football widow when, on a romantic night out with my husband, I noticed that he kept peeking at the TV screen at the bar which was showing a match between Arsenal (his favourite team) and Manchester United. As you might expect, the evening did not go well. I think at one point I might have even suggested that he stay behind and finish watching the match while I go home in a taxi. There were other signs that indicated to me that I was joining the millions of other women who lose their husbands to the English Premier League every weekend and to the World Cup every four years. Like the time when my husband rushed out of a family gathering to go to his local to watch a football match. Or the time when he sunk into a mild depression when Arsenal kept losing. Being a football widow – defined as “a wife whose husband spends the majority of his free time engrossed in football during the football season” is one of those unrecognised maladies that afflict many, many women around the world, but is not spoken about openly because football, like religion, has become a sacred sport whose adherents view those who are not converts as belonging to a subhuman species.

    Once known as the “Gold Coast,” today Ghana is hailed as the golden country of West Africa. It is located in West Africa and uniquely positioned on the globe. The Greenwich Meridian at zero degrees longitude passes through the city of Tema, and the equator cuts just few degrees south of Ghana. Therefore, if you step on the intersection of the Longitude and the Latitude, and in whichever direction you move, Ghana is the first landmass you would step on. That is why it is often said that, Ghana is closer to the center of the earth than any other country. Truly one of Africa's great success stories, Ghana is reaping the benefits of a stable democracy, a strong economy and a rapidly exploding tourism industry fueled by forts and castles, beautiful landscapes, many teeming with exotic wildlife, national parks, unique art and music communities, and exciting experiences among many indigenous cultural groups. Ghana is also suffused with the most incredible energy. When you visit the Republic of Ghana, you might come face to face with caracals (wild cats) and cusimanses, bongos (deer) and bushbacks. Learn from and celebrate with such ethic groups as the Fante, the Ashanti, the Mole-Dagbon or the Ewe. Shop the markets of Kejetia in Kumasi or Makola in Accra. Take time to visit the Wechiau Hippo Sanctuary, the Tafi Atome Monkey Sancuary, or even stop by Paga and feed the crocodiles. Visit the Larabanga Mosque which dates to 1421, the Nzulezu village on stilts, the Colonial lighthouse of Jamestown, or the National Theatre in Accra.

  • Factsheet.Doc 10/02 Xx11/06 1/3 FACT Sheet
    FACT Sheet FIFA U-20 World Cup The FIFA U-20 World Cup is not only the second-oldest FIFA competition, but with 24 participating teams, it is also the joint second-largest together with the FIFA U-17 World Cup. From Tunisia 1977 to Egypt 2009, the competition has grown in terms of size and importance and it has added lustre to the game by not only producing great attacking football, but exciting players for the future as well, with 485 former FIFA U-20 World Cup players going on to participate in the FIFA World Cup™. Spectator numbers reflect the growing importance of the competition with the 2009 edition being attended by a cumulative audience of over 1.2 million, together with a cumulative worldwide television audience of over 500 million. Format From the first FIFA U-20 World Cup in 1977 until 1995, the final competition comprised 16 teams. However, to enhance the prestige of FIFA’s major youth competition, the number of contenders was increased from 16 to 24 from 1997 (AFC 4, CAF 4, CONCACAF 4, CONMEBOL 4, UEFA 6, OFC 1, hosts 1). During the first two tournaments, the games only lasted 40 minutes each way (extra time was twice ten minutes). Since Australia 1985, matches have followed the traditional format of 45 minutes per half (with 15 minutes per half in extra time). History The tournament began modestly in Tunisia in 1977, with the FIFA Technical Report bemoaning the paucity of spectators. But by the early 1990s the competition had grown into an event of enormous importance with worldwide media exposure.

Soccer has spread to every corner of the world and although it is not the most popular game everywhere, it is without a doubt the most popular sport in the world. This popularity of the sport has allowed for money to be poured into the game, both by sponsors and fans. The economics of the game have created a more competitive atmosphere within the sport. The competitive nature of the sport attracts more players every year from everywhere in the world.

  • AFRICA and the WORLD CUP: a Beautiful Tragedy
    AFRICA AND THE WORLD CUP: A Beautiful Tragedy By Martin Maitha 2nd July 2010. Soccer City, Johannesburg. The score is 1-1 at the 2010 FIFA World Cup quarter-final between Ghana and Uruguay. In the 120th minute, Ghana have a promising free kick at the edge of the box. Some panicked Uruguayan defending, a proper goalmouth melee. Hang on, what’s this? It’s a penalty. Luis Suarez just saved a certain Ghanaian goal. The only problem is he’s not a goalkeeper, but a forward. He is shown a red card for his troubles. Asamoah Gyan steps up. Could this be the moment an African nation goes to the semi-final, in Africa’s World Cup? Gyan is Ghana’s top scorer at this World Cup, with three goals – two of which were penalties against Serbia and Australia in the group stages. If there was someone you could bet on to have the sangfroid and the cojones to do it, Gyan was that guy. The weight of a continent’s expectation is on his shoulders. He fires a shot, which cannons off the crossbar. Instead of winning it, he condemns Ghana to a needless penalty shootout which they late go on to lose – John Mensah and Dominic Adiyiah miss for Ghana and Sebastian Abreu hits a cheeky Panenka to send Ghana out of the 2010 FIFA World Cup. This memory is so vivid because I watched every heart-rending minute of that match, cursing at Suarez- the ready-made pantomime villain who dashed a continent’s hopes; but more so at Asamoah Gyan? How could he miss? Why was he such a choker? This is the story of Africa and the World Cup as we have always known it.

  • Gamesmanship and Criminal Process
    ARTICLES GAMESMANSHIP AND CRIMINAL PROCESS John D. King* ABSTRACT We ®rst learn formal structures of rules, procedures, and norms of conduct through games and sports. These lessons illuminate and inform human behav- ior in other contexts, including the adversarial world of criminal litigation. As critiques of the legitimacy and fairness of the criminal justice system increase, the philosophy and jurisprudence of sport offer a comparative legal system to examine criminal litigation. Allegations of gamesmanshipÐthe aggressive and strategic use of rules that violate some sense of decorum or culture yet remain within the formal rules of engagementÐcut across both contexts. This Article examines what sports can teach us about gamesmanship in criminal litigation. After distinguishing gamesmanship from cheating, this Article compares several examples of gamesmanship in sport and criminal litigation. These examples address the Crawford right of confrontation, the Brady obligation to disclose favorable evi- dence to the defendant, and the Batson prohibition against using race in jury selec- tion. This Article uses the jurisprudence of sport to propose a framework within which to view these claims in the criminal justice context. Recognizing the asym- metrical nature of the adversarial criminal justice system and the dual role of pros- ecutors as advocates and ministers of justice, this Article argues that prosecutorial gamesmanship poses a different and more acute danger to the legitimacy of the criminal adjudication system than does such behavior by defense lawyers. This Article concludes that gamesmanship is not only an inevitable part of any rule-based adversarial contest but also a positive and productive phenomenon that forces those invested in a system to de®ne which values and objectives are fundamental to that system.
