on the brink of a little destiny, savvy?
In Egypt, there are two main players in the soccer (futball) arena, Ahli or Zamalek, both teams in Cairo. You are for either one or the other, and it is a very important and sometimes divisive trait. My office boy was for Ahli, I was for Zamalek. He didn't smile when I told him that.
Games between the two often get violent and the stadium stands one half white (zamalek), one half red (Ahli). The streets flow with the blood of the loosing team at the end.
Tonight the blood of Ahli will wash the donkey shit off the soles of my shoes as I stand over them in Victory!
Yea, I'm going to the game. It's the biggest game in Egypt, and also my first one attended.
It's like Beauty at your doorstep.

dude, ahli is soo fucking gona nail that match and you zamalek people will be crying your eyes out!
Remember the pain of the 6 goals?! (well you don't but a few years ago ahli got 6 goals intozamalek in a historic game)
Well prepare yourself for 6 more!
mike, it's not too late to convert!
why would you not like the red team(ahli)? Are you backing out of your heritage? Cardinal is red.
this spirited intranational rivalry is perhaps a way to preemptively forget egypt's upcoming dismal loss to cameroun in the world cup qualifier in two weeks
allez les lyons!
Mike, how do you feel with Zamalek losing the game 2-1 on their land?
Why do all the foreigners always become Zamalek fans all the time?
Never too late to convert though...
