We celebrated Egypt’s African Cup today at the office because we have an Egyptian colleague named Saeed. He’s such a sweet man and he was so very happy today that he even got us knafeh! He was like the king on the first day of Eid, receiving hearty congrats from everyone, in person or on the phone.

I just remembered that the Egyptian sports commentator who was talking during the whole of last night’s game really brought it to a new different level. He was so funny with his unintentional cute Egyptian humor that the game was twice as fun.

بص أبو تريكة ابتسامته عاملة إزاي
أبو تريكة رجله كلها حركة
الكورة دي مش عاوزة تيجي خلاص

That really brought the game to life. Gold!
