I would like to congratulate German soccer super star: Bastian Schweinsteiger. Seeing his emotional departure, is proof of the commitment he made to the sport, to both his team and fans around the world and to his country. Congratulations Mr. Schweinsteiger!
Also, my praise comes a bit late, but I would like to congratulate team Portugal. Way to go guys!
And finally, all the remarkable displays of talent in the athletes of the world Olympics 2016. While tainted at many times through our global history, “the games” at its best, shows athletic discipline as a virtue, and prevails in that sense tremendously. Congratulations to all those who made it a safe and enjoyable competition. Thanks be to God.
