Dutch football and John keats....thoughts on empathy factor!


two days before almost all of sportworlds attention inevitably went on to the southafrican venue where 2010 south african fifa world cup draw took place...football lovers thrilled to know that there is not even 6 months remaining to start the worlds most beautiful games ultimate showdown......
my teams are the latin american soccer giants argentina and brazil;reason obviously is the football legend maradonna and beauty of latin american soccer!
but what the curious thing I want to share here is,
whenever one match being played between either one of this my favourite teams and the Dutch or Spanish team I secretely wish for a Spanish or Dutch win....why?
Is it because of the empathy factor?
I know the pain of being a loser though you 've all the potential to win...
look at the spanish and dutch football history,very often they sent and been considered as the very strong and most deserved team to lift that precious piece of gold cup, still they couldn't make it yet!
I read a lot on the legendary johan kruyff ,that how he single handedly popularise the total football and make the holland team to the two consecutive world cup finals,1974 and 1978
and endup at the other side of victory....
spain didn't even went to the final ever!!!(only once they get into semifinal stage....)
so very naturally a football lover really wish to see one of this deserved teams lifting the famous cup even over our favourite teams defeat....
so where comes our beloved poet John keats(whose tombstone carrying the heart melting words of
"Here lies One, Whose Name was writ in Water"!!! that much desperate he was when he met death at an early age of 25) in these football thoughts?
while thinking about this empathyfactor (in a sense sympathy factor,maybe) I can't resist the feeling to talk on my admiration on keats,dostaevsky,vangog and beethoven....
its true they all are genious enough to anyone can admired into,but my love and admiration doubled on them not only becuse of their matchless masterpieces, rather the tragic life they lead while delivering such gems.... knowing their struggles while living is make anyone to weep
ok,ok I don't want to elaborate and make my eyes wet on them....
I simply wish all the great football teams to perform well at FiFA 2010, especially the dutch and spanish.....
Anyway,my teams are argentina and brazil.... :)
