how about chariot racing instead? 35 miles south of me is Macdoel Ca. population 133, it's real popular there. https://www.heraldandnews.com/chariots-of-fire-winter-races-returnsunday-will-mark-opening-of/article_2b1484c7-200e-5a44-9961-911c02d2d773.html
The Daily Show host Trevor Noah is getting heat because he 'joked' that it was Africa who really won the World Cup. It is a stupid joke trying to get a rise out of people I guess. Those players learned the game growing up on the streets surrounding Paris not on the plains of Africa. They could have chosen to play for their parents country of origin but did not. They played for France. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...cused-racism-joking-Africa-won-World-Cup.html
Yes fake news did. The players themselves: French players have already responded to reports they are African - insisting they are a French team. Benjamin Mendy, who plays for Manchester City in the English Premier League, tweeted the names of the squad with a French flag next to each of them after sport page SPORF indicated where each player's family originated.
