just because in my point of view i want to argue your posts against barca...not every one of them, but some of them that i thing that are wrong..and that's it, nothing much, nothing less...I really will defend barca infront of inter everytime i'll get the opportunity..because i can't can't figure it out why some of you are defending inter (wanting them to win). So the enemy of my enemy is my friend
I will defend the devil against Inter. I will defend Hafez and Bashar Al Assad combined with Shimon Perez and Sharon over Inter.
:tup:...i wish i'll see the interista who supported us this season in ucl so i would shake his hand. But that species is extinct way before it was born
I wasn't talking about Barca vs Inter....I guess I'll drop it as this is getting no where. You keep on doing whatever you want and I will still not understand it.

No, it's been going on for ages. And each time it is a different excuse, sometimes against Inter, sometimes against EPL teams, etc.

People simply are cowards for not admitting they are Barcelona fans and that's why they defend them.

I don't think it's as easily cut-and-dried as it is for you, Andy. Because you don't have a family of Uncle Vitos and their goombahs, and because you seem to be from a family with roots that have long since naturalized, of course the alternative makes absolutely no sense to you.

But things change when, say, you have a wife who natively spoke Portuguese before she learned English. Or grandparents and great-grandparents you remember speaking Lithuanian and making Lithuanian food and celebrating Lithuanian cultural traditions when you grow up.

Or maybe you have a job or school that takes you from the country where you were born to other countries.

I don't think it's as simple as you make it out to be, Andy. Nationality is a complex answer, much like race can be a complex answer.

That said, I won't ever disagree with you when I can only roll my eyes at a bunch of Hong Kong-based descendants from Han Chinese who spew expletives at a player called up on the Italy NT because "they're not Italian enough". But if you you think that sort of national requirement is lunacy for players, how can you be so hard-line adamant that NT fans be held at a much higher standard than exists for players?
I don't have a problem with your case of having a wife that drags you along with her support, or somebody like Sergio who has grown up with the Italian National Team. But the folks who have no ties to a country at all get on my nerves.

As I said, nationality is a very simple thing. Either you are, or you aren't.

Don't let them get on your nerves, they don't know any better.
