I am so happy to report that my voting enabled Asamoah Gyan of Ghana/ Sunderland to be named BBC's African Footballer of the year ha ha ha! With his leadership during the World Cup I am not surprised. We Africans truly appreciated how he helped Ghana step up to the plate to keep an African Nation visible and relevant during the tournament. I would split my pajama bottoms while in the process of falling to my knees before the nail biting penalty in front of the TV for him again any day. He is truly a Black Star ;}.
You can watch his thank you and read more about it here.
I have not mentioned the fact that Nadal lost to Federer in the ATP Finals last month due to the fact that I don't want to dwell on that because he had such a stellar year. However, Federer is hosting an exhibition match in Switzerland this Tuesday to raise money for his Foundation that does work in Ethiopia, Tanzania, Malawi, Zimbabwe and South Africa. I know that it is only an exhibition match but I want Nadal to win. It will make me feel better. And I hope he wears the purple again. He wears my favourite colour well ha ha ha ha. And I happen to be in Switzerland so I should be able to catch it. Problem is there are so many random Arabic Channels to sort through hopefully find the Swiss one it is showing on. Federer's Facebook page also indicates it will be shown on other channels so you can check there to see if you can catch it too.
