    If, and I repeat, IF that is true, then aren't we dealing with a double standard here? Maybe Camoranesi was born in New Jersey, too, for all I know

    I didn't know Andy hated Camoranesi. i think you have him confused with me. You know what they say about us Americans, we all look alike

    Conculsion. If Rossi played for the U.S., we wouldn't be having this conversation

    But the point is, its a chance that he was willing to take. Certainly you can see the risk of doing something like that. Italy had, and still has, a much larger pool of strikers on which to choose from. There was no obligation on Lippi or Donadoni's part to select him because of his...

    Yes, I am proud of him. I would have been just as proud of him if he played for the US, but it takes a lot of guts to turn down a nearly guaranteed spot on the US team for the chance, and I repeat, CHANCE, to make the Italian NT. It was a calculated risk, but obviously he was chosen because...

    that's one way of looking at it. Another way of looking at it was she simply wasn't good enough to play for the U.S., so she wanted to play for the Russian Olympic Team, despite the fact that she had no ties to that country whatsoever.

    I'm not uncomfortable at all. I don't bullshit anybody. My feelings on this were known over 2 years ago. What I don't like are players receiving citizenship SOLELY for the purpose of playing for a country. There are no historical, ethnical ties to that country. You are simply doing it...

    You know something Andy, its not as if he strung two football federations along, waiting for the 1st team to give him a call (Sound Familiar?? Amauri, Anyone??). This was something that he wanted ever since he was young, I think he has stated that enough times for everyone to hear. I...

    I'm just using him as an example. Which is why Barry Sanders will always be one of my all time favorite NFL players. When he scored, he simply handed the ball to the referee.

    Andy, I really think that you are trying way too hard to dissect every little thing he says and does, for the purpose of trying to justify what you believe to be true. Which you are certainly in your rights to do.

    How does the fact that it was a dream for him to play for Italy coincide with having no respect for the United States??

    I'm of the belief that I would rather have a good player who is a great human being, than a great player who is a first class asshole. Which is why, in light of recent situations, you will notice that I am no longer as ardent a supporter of Ibrahimovic as I used to be. At first I thought...

    Put it this way. He flipped off Lippi behind his back during a training session when they were in the U.S. I'm not even going to get into the fact that after training he angrily brushed off anyone who was trying to get an autograph and headed straight to the bus, while Del Piero, Davids...

    Some of the main reasons for my dislike for him have little to do with on the field activities. Put it this way, I saw something in person that he did which just lacked respect
