Freddy is as American as I am.
Yeah, I don't really know your history buddy... Were you also born in Ghana?
:p

I'm just being provocative, it's all good man. Freddy is a great player, hopefully he gets a chance to really prove himself. For the record, I do consider him American. It's not like Owen Hargreaves, who was born and lived in Canada for basically his entire life, and then goes off to play for England. These guys kill me, because a player like Hargreaves really had an opportunity to help grow the fan base of an entire country... to really help lend the NT some desperately needed credibility and recognition.

Balotelli is a punk, who needs to learn a little humility. Player's like him, who fail to show respect to those who have earned respect, really bother me.

Anyways, I'm off to watch playoff hockey and get wasted. Happy Sunday everyone.

then why did you make the Adu point in the 1st place? Balotelli has also been in Italy since he was two...he is as Italian as they come, even if he doesn't look the part

Balotelli is actually born in Italy, Palermo. 2 years old is when he was adopted by the Balotelli family. Adu is american, but in contrast to Balotelli, think he emigrated to the US as a 9 year old or such.

"Inter Milan have lots of players who work as a well organized, collective unit capable of lasting throughout the entire season. Having so many players, they can easily take advantage of the turnover. On the other hand, we have less players and rely on our talented single players who can win games. We can to beat anyone on a good day. We are more tenacious and can turn intensity into positive motivation. But, it is hard to count on single players and constant motivation for 11 consecutive months"

Yeah but in the US we don't make people break down decades of lineage to "prove" how American they are. If you move to the US, adopt the culture, attain nationality then you're an American. Whether he likes it or not ZeZe is an American.:D


Balotelli and Adu aren't really that comparable as the US is a country build on the expansion of immigration and Italy isn't. It's two different cultures, two different ways to look at the situation. While a minority of our people make asses out of themselves over the immigration issue, most of us don't really care where you come from.

I can't believe you're even discussing this. We've been over this so many times. Adu is American if he feels like an American and if he holds an American passport. The same goes for Balotelli. He's Italian.

Not that it even matters in this case. Inter being "less Italian" is not going to take away the trophy they'll receive at the end of the season.

What are you trying to achieve here by talking logic?
Take your logic with you and get the fuck out of this thread.

I'm sorry Alen. The Logic Faeries must have sprinkled logic dust on me last night. I'll try my best to post as much nonsense as I can once the stuff wears off.

The United States should be banned from international football and Balotelli should play for the Black Italien national team.

Forza Nerazzuri and AB Blood team.

I played against Adu when he was 7 and 14, so that debunks your theory.
