Ok, I have to do this post only because this is truly heartbreaking, yet encouraging.
Trinidad & Tobago's (T&T) Soca Warriors are going home. They did not win any matches nor did they score any goals in the 2006 World Cup. So, what's the big deal? Well, the big deal (in the heart of a true Trini, anyway) is that aside from being the smallest country to qualify for the World Cup, this is the first time T&T has qualified for the grand games. The first time is always special, you know?
So, it is with a heavy heart that I bid farewell to the Soca Warriors. You played with heart and enthusiasm. You held off Sweden and annoyed the bloody hell out of the English. Job well done!
At least now the World Cup world knows about the little island that proved it could make it to the show and hold its own. Looking forward to seeing you here again in 4 years!

Well about time someone give the Soca Warriors the big ups they desserve. Very well said.
Too bad so many trinis who can't even kick a damn ball can only criticize and don't see the bigger picture. Which is, we made it to De Cup! Madness! :-)
big ups to the soca warriors!
what is wrong with the referees in this world cup? are they blind? maybe they're suffering from heat stroke.
STOP giving out yellow cards and red cards like they're candy! pay attention to the drama queens and realize that this is a physical game unlike golf or poker!
*argh*
