Have you ever attended an international game with the US playing? I have and there are plenty of flags and patriotism. Besides the USA chants, there are people dressed up as patriots like Teddy Roosevelt for example. Ever hear of the American Outlaws?
That is EXACTLY what I’m talking about.
I think many conservatives dont know that this is what is there and get all of their views of soccer from leftists that use it precisely as the article was saying.
I wish I lived close enough to where one of these matches take place. I would get in on the party.
