[WC] World Cup 2010 - General Talk Thread (44 Viewers)

[Bjerknes]

No, really, I'd like an answer. Klose, Podolski, Boateng, Quincy.. they're all traitors? But then again.. had they chosen the other country instead, they would have been traitors too.. right? What's more important to you, Andy, ius soli or ius sanguinis?

And what about a guy who doesn't have let's say the American nationality, but has lived there all his life. He's now 25. His parents are both Indian and he was born in India, but they moved to the States when he was 1 year old. Can he support the USA? He probably can't right? He should support.. well.. India? Although.. He's never been there.. wait.. I don't think this is simple at all.

Again, you're being a moron.

Nationality is a very simple issue, Andries. You either are, or you aren't.

That's the bottom line. Rossi can certainly play for Italy because he does. But he's still a traitor to US Soccer, and I don't care what you have to say about that, so don't bother responding.

Love Australia's kit.

Such a shame Belgium is not in the World Cup so to enjoy some of its finest brews.

And to think that we were knocked out by Serbia! After such a shameful performance we should replace them.

Its like you've known me my entire life yet we've never met

 

[Bjerknes]

ALMOST.

Bah. This doesn't look promising.

No. It is not "a very simple issue". It's one of the most complex legal matters there are.

 

[Salvatore]

Australia surprisingly close.

Aussies should have taken the lead right there

Love Australia's kit.

The German kits for the past few competitions have been top class as well

Take Belgium for example, Andy. Let's say we split the country in half (which seems ever more likely). Now I'm Flemish.

But the French speaking part play the World Cup final (unlikely, but still). Can I want them to win? Or is this forbidden? Some time ago we were of the same nationality you know..

Aussies looking good so far.

Like their kits as well.

If you have nationality, yes.

I would still have rooted for Ghana today but I would have enjoyed a fine Orval with it.

More David Green:

Robert Green has been announced as BPs new chief. Our reporter J. Tamson said "he's an expert on spillages and his eagerness to help America in their difficult situation won't go unnoticed"

Jeez Klose - -

 

[Bjerknes]

Dr. Mengele with the mishit.

 

[Seven]

If you have nationality, yes.

But I wouldn't have the nationality anymore. I just lost it. We used to have the same nationality, but because of circumstances I couldn't do anything about we are now no longer of the same nationality.

Someone from Montenegro can't support Serbia then?

Klose almost get Alemania on the board

PODOLSKI

 

[Bjerknes]

There we go.

Podumpski.
