And one wonders why Argentina went from one of the richest countries in 1900 to the poster child of an economic basket case.

It is all about culture and Argentina seems to embody all the worst stereotypes of Mediterranean culture.

I’ve said for years that one of the biggest obstacles soccer faces to attracting wide support in the U.S. is its reputation as a Third World sh!t-hole sport.

That is probably the most illuminating post on FR today! We can't let the left bait us into defending whites so much against their racist attacks on whites that we forget to win the spiritual war and culture war.

Lots of the failures are a function of rampant corruption in both the public, and especially the government sector. This is the same road America is on.

Soccer fans have to be the most hooligan oriented of all the sports in the world.
