Can't I enjoy a nice football tournament where all the teams have the potential to put in a good football display without supporting anyone? Just taking shots at teams and fans here and there?
I'm not saying you can't, it's just that it's quite cheap to laugh at them when they get angry afterwards. Especially in the case of Vinni.

Feel free to.

I'm enjoying there being a major championship where I don't have to worry about Scotland being embarrassed, or England doing well.

Much more relaxing than normal.

Do you know what's annoying?

Agon, AhMeD, Alltagsheld, Azzurri7, Bozi, CORVETTE, Cronios, DelpieroForLife, Flieeekke, ForzaDelPiero10, ghoppa, goggo, gray, Holdon, juve red, Juve Revolution, juve88, Juventino#16, Juventino_NJ, juventus1897, juverm, juve_baby, LexeMan, Loppan, MaNcIn3tt0_14, Marko, marko serbia, mk_khan, mondo1, narchi, Omair, Primadonna, Roman, salman, Señor Canardo, SoulSiick, Stripper, Suhail, swag, The Gigolo, Trigger, Triviggy, Turk_Bianconero, vSnoop, will luvs juve, xcen3x

Out of this long list maybe two are Italians.
with that logic, the same can be said to Juve supporters, none of us here is Italian or from Torino, there is no connection between us and Juventus club. Then we all are Juve fanboys.

Sports shouldn't be mixed with nationalism in my opinion, I love my country, and I don't love Italy, but I love the Italian football and that's the only league I watch, not because they are Italians or anything, but I like the style of their game even if it is boring to most of football supporters. But I understand you in one way, when some of these supporters act like they are Italians, all the bullshit talks in this forum, that Juve should sign more Italian players etc.. That annoys me too, because that's where nationalism is mentioned again..

But most of them support the Azzurri because they like Juventus. Automatically they will want Juventus players to do good and that way they probably rolled into liking the Azzurri.
This is true.
But this is exactly the reason why i can't understand the Azzurri fans who attacked and insulted Marko (Ikoninhosa) for supporting the French NT, when he said it himself why he started supporting that team and it's exactly because they always had minimum 3 Juventini in their starting XI.
There were times when there were more Juventini playing for France than Juventini playing for Italy.

Neither can I. I don't like the French NT, because they're French :D, but I Marko's reason to support them is his own and seems valid.

But it's not the same joke every single time. Besides, it's almost never about football teams.

This is out of logic dude.
If i'm from Israel then i MUST support Israel and can't support Italy?!!?!
what a bullshit.
i like italian football since i remember myself watching football at age 6,
same goes to Juve,and i am fan of Italy not beacuse Juve.
That's the nation i adore in football and follow closely.
their style,passion and everything else is special for me,and i follow Italian football team,not the country.
because i never been there.
so when it comes to football and there are real fans,you can't say that if he's not an italian that it's annying or something.it's just out of logic.

that's the way my heart feels.and when it comes to football it's Italy.
it's just like that,you don't chose acountry to support.you just feel it.
exactly as with Juve.

maybe there are some fake wannabies by just don't conclude everyone with them.

Italy´s anthem
Although is longer this is the part the guys usually sing

So you can sing it tomorrow. I like how they scream the " siamo pronti a la morte" part

Fratelli d'Italia
L'Italia s'è desta
Dell'elmo di Scipio
S'è cinta la testa

Dov'è la vittoria?
Le porga la chioma
Chè schiava di Roma
Iddio la creò

Fratelli d'Italia
L'Italia s'è desta
Dell'elmo di Scipio
S'è cinta la testa

Dov'è la vittoria?
Le porga la chioma
Chè schiava di Roma
Iddio la creò

Stringia moci a coorte
Siam pronti alla morte

(repeat)

L'Italia chiamò
Stringia moci a coorte
Siam pronti alla morte

(repeat)

Not the same thing, Snoop. Everybody has a country, but for instance, the United States did not have a truly professional football league when I became a fan of football.

Everybody has a national team but not everybody has their own league. Don't confuse club with country.
