No raise for everyone

The bill that deals with the renegotiation of the debt of the States with the Union has a clause that had the approval of the federal government, which is precisely that of not granting a salary increase to the state civil servants. Except for the equivalent of inflation, which not even that few government officials are complying with. It remains to be seen whether the deal will be valid for the magistrates, for the military and for the parliamentarians who usually vote on a salary increase in the "silent" and far beyond inflation. The project's rapporteur, federal deputy Esperidião Amin, should also be vigilant in maintaining this determination for all categories. 

 

It's red

I have not seen national sports commentators criticize Micale's call-up to the Olympic team. Nor that he should have been the head coach himself. On top of the matches, the criticism begins. Now (and I said it a long time ago) the clearest and most possible thing to happen is that we can lose not only the Olympics, but also the qualification for the World Cup in Russia. It was just what was needed to frame the chaotic picture of the country.

 

Takes it

The coach of the Brazilian national team Micale said before the call-up of the players that it is an honor for him and anyone else to have Neymar in their team. But it hasn't been working out... neither as a point guard nor as a goalscorer. How about starting tomorrow without the ace. Maybe the Gabriel duo could take off.

 

Who is who

In every call-up of the Brazilian team that I remember, since the unbeatable 70's, we had on the tip of our tongue not only the team's lineup but also the reserves. And as soon as the game started we knew the alternatives for each position. Today, not even Galvão knows who will replace whom, let alone what the scheme of eventual substitutions will be.

 

pokemonster

They are announcing that next Sunday there will be the first pokemon ball hunt starting at Koxixo's from 13 pm to 20 pm. They ask to bring hats and light clothes. Participants should take a tube of repellent... they're going to hunt mosquitoes!

 

no footprint

With his silly way of talking and gesticulating, Guga Kuerten has given a bath in front of the cameras in Globo's golden team. The first thing he said and Galvão took the hook to talk to the rest of the champion guests, was the “lack of grip” on the players who wear the canarinho shirt. Footprint or claw... that's what our millionaire stars lack.

 

By the way

Our millionaire stars should watch the basketball match in which the American “golden” team tied until the first half with the weak Venezuelan team by the score of 18 to 18. The millionaire American players ended up with a comeback of 52 points of difference. They took off their high shoes and put on the country shirt.

 

give yourself

Headline of the Mundo Português newsletter: “Portuguese athletes promise to give their all at the Olympic Games”. So far we haven't seen the players of the canary national team give anything to the Brazilian fans.

 

Pen drive

Or would it be clone? Well now... state deputy Marcos Vieira, from the PSDB, has a namesake candidate for mayor of the Capital who is not from the toucan nest. Marcos Vieira II is a candidate for the PEN - National Ecological Party.
