They get "hammered," ''knocked out," or rendered "unrecognizable." And that's just the good news.

Every moment not spent hoisting another trophy must mean th...

From old to new. Past to present. From Francesco Totti to Mario Balotelli. The homegrown Roman senator vs. the son of Ghanaian immigrants.

In fact, the returning coach saw Wednesday's 2-1 defeat as a good omen. His first stint in charge of the Brazilians in 2001 also opened with a loss, and a year later they were celebrating their fifth World Cup title. And, all that matters now...
