How many times has Andy cried over the US matches being unfairly treated or having a terrible referee on the pitch? Too many times.
Bullshit. I admitted we did not deserve to progress past the group stages in 2006, blaming our failure on the team and some of our individuals. When we got trounced against Mexico 6-0 in the Gold Cup, I did not blame the ref, I blamed our poor performance and the player choices by the manager. When we lost to Brazil last summer in the Confederations Cup, I blamed it on our lack of possession and sit-back mentality.
What do all of those instances have in common? They all have nothing to do about conspiracy theories or blaming anybody except for ourselves. If you don't believe me, go look it up.
I'm tired of fanboys of other countries telling me what I've done or haven't done. Go support your own country, Rab. You're not Italian. Learn something from a fellow Lebanese in Jack.
