Actually, the bamster played basketball, and as I remember couldn't hit a free throw. What does that tell you? I guess it means that the commies invented basketball, or something.......

Oh, and do you know where God mentions baseball first in the Bible?

So you believe everything Obama tells you? Ha! You believe Obama. Obviously he would lie about playing any sort of American game in order to try to pass as one of us.

Obama is obviously a soccer player. You can see it in everything he does.

Oh, and do you know where God mentions baseball first in the Bible?

Isa_22:18 He will surely violently turn and toss thee like a ball into a large country: there shalt thou die, and there the chariots of thy glory shall be the shame of thy lord's house.

See? The Rabbis in their tradition say it was a fast ball. Admit it, ye soccer people! Soccer is of the devil! Repent! Repent!

If there are any Americans here who have friends or loved ones lost in the sin of soccer, feel free to PM and I can get you in contact with my organization, "True Americans Against Soccer," and we can send an exorcist to your house. Here is an excerpt from a testimonial I received in the mail recently:

"My husband began watching soccer in 2012... as time passed, he became more and more unstable... eventually, I caught him cross dressing... Your ministers prayed over my husband until the devils of soccer fled his body, and now he is even better than ever! He watches football, no longer suffers impotence, and no longer has any interest in wearing women's clothing."

You too can be freed! ESCAPE THE SIN OF SOCCER!

I really don’t begrudge soccer fans their due but how can you love a sport that has it’s length of contest controlled secretly by one man?

Uh, I hate to break it to you, but one of the few records we actually have about the man is that he played soccer, oops, nevermind, um, er.....basketball in high school.

We also saw him miss twenty free throws in a row, I know, I know.....it was like the moon landing, faked in Arizona.....or something.....

Oh, and you fail Bible literacy. First words in the scripture, Genesis 1:1. In the big inning........

*Missing the mark* Fail!

Anything can be faked. Even the news reportage of him playing basketball can easily be put together by Hollywood CGI technology. Now you admitted yourself that he wasn't very good at basketball, even by his own (false) claim. That proves that he did not play basketball that much and, therefore, must have been playing... SOCCER, because only soccer fails to utilize the arms very much, therefore leading to atrophy.

We also saw him miss twenty free throws in a row, I know, I know.....it was like the moon landing, faked in Arizona.....or something.....

But what did you actually see? Even Saddam had a body double who looked JUST LIKE HIM. And as for the moon landing, don't get me started unless you can seriously explain the fact that the American flag was FLUTTERING IN WIND! Is there WIND on the moon?

Oh, and you fail Bible literacy. First words in the scripture, Genesis 1:1. In the big inning........

I knew I was missing something, but you proved my point! God hates soccer!

It’s not a secret, except to those who don’t follow the sport.

From the sounds of it, He likes innings with lots of scoring, but to believe He hates soccer, you have to explain His love for hymns about heading........

Germany is going to tear most teams in to pieces from what I can tell.

Ya know - I've been thinking about this while reading this thread, and GPH’s comments about women's suffrage, etc.

Did ya ever notice how all(?) sports just use ONE ball!? Clearly they are ALL an endeavor to emasculate men. NEVER two balls. And they all make the men wear the SAME uniform. Just one more way THEY are breaking down the INDIVIDUAL.

I blame refrigeration. As soon as we started refrigerating beer, our women got uppity.

Could be all that extra time they have now. Instead of walking the mile down to the creek to go get the cold beer they just have to go to the fridge when we want one!

Soccer is as big as baseball in the under 18 crowd.

Football is not much of a sport. The linemen are overweight and almost everyone is on HGH. Most of the game consists of people standing around waiting for the TV ads to be finished.

Baseball has a problem in that I don’t get the impression that parents want their kids to play it anymore. And I’ve seen my share of T-Ball games . . . in my opinion, something is missing.

“Whenever they got the ball they tossed sandwiches onto the sidelines.

The Ghana dudes all ran over there to get them.”

I’m still laughing at that one!

most Texans believe to be a Commie plot.


The majority of under 18 Texans are Mexican heritage, sorry, and they like soccer too.

Demography is destiny.
