Aww shush Lyle. The only reason you're getting pissy is cause there's never been an American player that has made it even onto the subs bench of a World invitational side that occasionally gets assembled.Quote:

Adu is with Benfica and he's only 18 and he's scored a goal in one of his 3 appearances....and he's not really a goal scorer, he's a great dribbler and he distributes the ball.Quote:

Clint Dempsey is doing just fine for Fullham. Landon Donovan is good when he is used correctly. Eddie Johnson is good, and there are even more young players that are going to make their mark on the WORLD of soccer.
If England has such good players then why do they need Northern Ireland and Wales to fill out their squad??? And if Wales and Northern Ireland are seperate countries from England why would they want to join up on the same team......that's gay
If you knew anything about European history ud no that thats a very gay questiopn.Quote:

I know that outside of England proper hell and even inside England that nobody liked being under the rule of a King or Queen....especially the Irish.Quote:

I will confess I don't know much about Wales though.
Also a unification like this would be like Puerto Rico joining up with America....wouldn't do much for the team as a whole but it would really piss off the Puerto Ricans who have pride in doing for themselves....that is what I base my opinion on so if I have it wrong then please, enlighten me
For fucks sake Lyle. It was just some idle musings on my part but NO, you had to go and ruining it. >:mad
I hate you :'(
I'm going to my room.
p.s. I don't know anything about Wales either. ???
Well Lyle in summation...Quote:

Wales sits half way back in the class, She's a nice young lady and although he is very good at sports and music, she goes largely unnoticed. However she never gets credit for he efforts. She is resentful of the recognition England gets for being top of the class, although it is her who puts in a lot of the work.
Ireland is the class joker, multi talented, but lazy and donning a "i'll do it tomorrow attitude," he's consistently late for class andis famed forhis friendship with young wales and scotland. He cannot stand Engladn as England's get work done demeanour clashes awfully with his aspirations to live in a world where everybody lives for the weekend and work is optional.
I think I was in the same class as England in school, and beat him up and stole his lunch money once a week. Poor kid also had to explain to his dad why his mobile phone was broken and another school shirt got ripped. I still think it was justified.Quote:

If anyone ever liked the idea of welfare they only need go to Europe and see the lazy bastards over there....when you have riots over having a 30-35 hour work week you're a country of lazy bastards.
Don't get me wrong, I love France, it's a great country and the people are nice but the economics of France and majority of Europe are horrible. Ireland did well recently though, lowering taxes.....once you guys realize lowering taxes is a good thing then you'll do better.
And don't preach to me about how the dollar is doing it's only because you have the Euro and honestly we're getting ready to team up with Mexico and Canada for the Amero.....which is possibly the gayest idea since a UK football team.
Fuck Canada and Fuck Mexico!
How many Amero's for a Euro??? That sounds like fiscal suicide for the US...why not invite the Cubans in as well.Quote:

Look at history and everyone will see this Euro, Amero, system won't work. Asia is too big and too diverse....where does Russia fit in....and Simon Bolivar already tried to make a unified South America and he failed miserably.
But no we're destined to repeat this idiotic idea....and all this means is that when a downturn in the stock market hits we're all going to be up shit's creek.
Right now the US is basically taking the slow route to turning the almighty dollar into what the Deutchmark was circa 1929.
I really have no issues with Canada or Canadians but I am not a socialist and I don't want their government....I have no issue with Mexico or Mexicans in general but I don't want my country to be overrun with their poor and believe you me they have a lot more than America does.
This is a very very very bad idea....the Euro was ok but I am sure people still resent the idea of giving up their boarders, language, and culture
Do you really think so??? I think that a situation of that sort would be even more catastrophic now than it was then. At least in the 30s there was potential for some growth and plentiful supplies of fuel etc so that the economy could recover. That sort of crash, and the whole world is going to hell in a handbasket as they say.Quote:
