By the way... Discuss World Cup 2010 South Africa here...

I have simplified www.FoutBol.com into a simple blog so you can talk about the world cup. Take a look!

Back to Jozy...

Jozy was born in Livingston, New Jersey and raised in Boca Raton, Florida. his parents, Joseph and Giselle were born in Haiti.

I am not sure if his carrying this tradition in the 2010 World Cup but Jozy Altidor has the habit of wearing a wristband bearing both the flags of Haiti and the United States during his games.

It is nice to see that, although Haiti is in pain an the Haitian national soccer team did not make it to World Cup 2010 in South Africa, Haiti is still represented nonetheless.

Manno Sanon must be really proud right now in the afterlife!
