OT Brazilian competing in winter games:

“I had one of the best times of my life, and I can say that my mission here is accomplished. I was victorious over myself,” celebrated Brazilian Franziska Becskenhazy, She was last placed in the 10km cross-country competition...

: : ...With nothing to do in the snow, (competitively at least), the strangers in the cold call attention by the unusual. The Brazilian bobsled team for instance got the nickname “Frozen Bananas” for their eye-catching yellow uniforms...

: : ...On the American ice, the Brazilian goal was to reach the top of the non-traditional countries. Not happening so far. In luge for instance, Ricardo Raschini and Renato Mizoguchi finished 45th and 46th in a field of 48.

Shit! now I know what is the feeling of those guys playing football against us!

They came behind three Venezuelans, two Argentineans, one Indian and the representative of Bermuda. But Raschini dared to predict our progress - for the next Olympics said: “Brazil will do well in the snow in the future. Get ready for us.”

You cannot tell us we don't have the spirit. LOL
