Michael Wilbon thinks Jurgen Klinsmann should 'get out of America' “I’ve known Kobe Bryant,” Wilbon said. “And you, Mr. Klinsmann, are no damn Kobe Bryant. I mean seriously, Mr. Klinsmann now wants to tell all of American sports how to work. Get the hell out. Get out of America. If everything here — you want to coach this team fine. You haven’t won anything. You’re so gutless you went out and said ‘oh, our team can’t win, we can’t win.’ You’re supposed to be such a great coach, why are they paying you? They’re apparently paying you for something you did not only yesterday, but somewhere else about 4,000 miles away. I repeat: Get the hell out. When did Klinsmann become an expert on American sports?”
What Wilbon is really po’ed about is that a German, a white man, had the unmitigated nerve to voice an oblique-at-best criticism of the almighty (almighty arrogant and ego-centric) Kobe Bryant. (BTW, Klinsman’s comment really reflected on Lakers’ management, not Bryant)
