:wow: Did you talk up a xenophobic outlook so as to dissuade her from heading back to the crib of various ethnic groups that permeate England?
I asked if she fancied meeting for a chat and put a wink smiley. The rest is history.

I'll remember that for next time though.

:whew: the ignorant britishness of it all. and the made up details. I love these type of articles, mostly cause they are dying off so quickly


excerpts:

Son, I am feewmin reading this. The ignorance/arrogance from some is amazing.

Not to say MLS is a top, top league yet but it's a physically grueling league. They really think their :flabbynsick: can come here and make millions

there is also this Latino thing they always bring up as to why football is nothing popping like crazy, like Latinos weren't always here. It's cringeworthy.

Essentially with the internet, the video games, development of MLS, and this being the truly first generation that grew up with 24 hour access to football, you had this explosion.

yeah, it's true tho. the parts of MD that border DC and the district itself are subtly interesting.

Annoying thing about that article is that the secret footballer could've proposed any number of reasons for why football is blowing up, including even bucking the trend and describing something closer to the truth that soccer has been popular for years.

But instead he wanted to ham-fistedly paint Americans as ignorant and slavish corporate cocksuckers that couldn't possibly interpret the lofty languages of football. The arrogance was astounding.

England has killed many US talents. It's not a place to move to early. Better off going to Italy, learning how to defend and move on from there.

Spurs are all about the flavor of the month despite having a strong infrastructure, so they never have sustained success.



oyoyoyo with the truth. Spurs is terrible for players and managers.
You just a hater since your arsenal fan. Spurs is on the come up all these plastics fan hate it when a not so big named team makes it top 4 i see u haters already coming out talking reckless even before the season start. FA cup makes yall the big boys now eh.

I honestly think Pool will finish top 3, but until they sign another striker (which they will, I just don't know who for sure) I can't without being a stan say they'll finish ahead of Arsenal right now
This the exact samething i said last season with all the new players coming in. Yall arent that great without suarez. No real striker besides ur two scrubs lambert and sturridge(Daniel needs to prove he can score 20 goals with out suarez). Spurs with finish ahead of you guys just like we have for like 6 seasons besides last season which was transitional season with all the new players getting PL exp.

No wonder eveyone thinks pool fans are so delustional.
