i HATE the wonderfully condescending air people from other countries get towards americans about soccer.
one, the only people youll insult are the only americans that share an interest with you. the rest who dont like/care about soccer dont like/care about your opinion.
and two, so what? one's interest in a sport shouldnt be determined by some men/women who they never have and never will meet's performance. just because the US mens team doesnt dominate the world, doesnt mean i enjoy it any less. doesnt mean someone living next door to ronaldo even plays.
i dont understand the correlation.
Ana, dont take it personally, it was your post that made me say this, but it isnt directed at you, its an attitude ive gotten in other places, im just venting here, lol.
