    The Royal Academy of the Spanish Tongue would feel insulted if they read this one. Sportsmanship in Spanish is "deportivismo." You will notice the killer attitude in sports in Latin culture just as much as you would notice it in a "friendly" football game in Kansas City (been there, done that ... got tackled to death). Now about the cheating and fouling: Dishonesty is a trait that is widespread in certain Latin American countries. Your friend from Colombia can tell you more about that one.

    Wanna see white people who really 'got the moves' dancing like crazy? Then come to Venezuela or other Latin American countries. No matter what skin color (white, brown or black), Hispanics see dancing all around us since we are born. So good dancing definetely has to do with your upbringing, not your skin. This proves that style and grace are unique to no race.
