U.S. soccer team to play for Olympic spot in Guadalajara
Things could get ugly in Guadalajara tomorrow when the U.S. soccer team plays Mexico for Olympic qualification.
Last Thursday, when the U.S. played Canada in a qualifying round in Zapopan before 1,500 Mexicans, the crowd hooted "The Star-Spangled Banner," it booed U.S. goals. And it chanted "Osama! Osama! Osama" as the American players left the field with a 2-0 victory.
Tomorrow, 60,000 fans are expected to watch the game that will determine which team goes to Athens.
The Mexicans are hoping for revenge. The U.S. team knocked Mexico out of the World Cup in 2002.
The Guadalajara police are already mobilizing to control highly charged soccer fans and to protect U.S. team players in case things get out of hand.

Technically, if we nuked Mexico into glass, our soccer team would win by forfeit, right?
Enemies list:
1. China
2. France
3. Mexico
4. Syria
5. Egypt
Ooh, looks like Mexico is up to #3...

Hehehe, yeah we kicked their asses :-D
They can chant whatever they want to. We can chant back, "Indoor Plumbing!Indoor Plumbing!Indoor Plumbing"!
Of course there are all kinds of things we could yell at them, but considering they drive along my neighborhood with Mexican flags attached to their cars...I think I'll keep my mouth shut.

Very hard to rank Saudi Arabia... the leaders are not publicly calling for our destruction, but they are tolerating those who do. They're like that little assmole emirate which lets us base our troops there, but spews hatred in the form of Al Jazeera.

Don't get me wrong. I feel bad for the citizens. Unfortunately we can't absorb any more of them, and I really resent these idiots who are chanting "Osama". Let's see if they still chant when we finally build a fence, and Mexico gets Shari'a law. Oh dear, I'm ranting again...

Aw, don't worry: these fine people "share our values" and "just want to put food on the table," according to our beloved Leader.
So what if they also want to see our buildings destroyed and our fellow citizens massacred? They weren't among the 9/11 hijackers, now were they?
