It is impossible for Americans to imagine the degree to which Germany’s Mario Gotze’s life has changed. Nothing any of our sports stars could ever do – not a game-winning, walk-off home run in the seventh game of the World Series, not a game-winning kickoff return in the Superbowl – nothing – could equal the significance or the 22-year-old midfielder’s moment of glory on the world’s stage. Enjoy the rest of your life, Mario. You’ll never have to buy a meal or a drink again.
