I read a letter to the editor in LA TIMES really pissed me off bout the world cup..

some dumb asshole wrote in how pissed off he was that Mexicans in the US were supporting the Mexican team in the Cup, when they should be supporting the US.. then went into some dimwitted tirade about how Mexicans should assimilate better, how they are unAmerican and how this World Cup match demonstrates that shit.. but news flash!

hey asshole, have you even been watching the Cup or talking to Mexicans on the street about it? Surprisingly, the Mexicans I talk to, ESPECIALLY those who speak no english and would hardly want to assimilate into mainstream american culture (shit who would want to?) are MAD NUTS about the US team, were giving MAD support to the US team, watched ALL the US matches with enthusiasm, and honestly seemed to be supporting the US team MORE than the mexican team, probably because the US team had far more relative success than the Mexican team did..

I hate assholes who don't know shit, and bring up old gripe just for the sake of hearing themselves speak.. I mean shit, that was just using the Cup as a lame excuse to go on a racist tirade..

Mexicans were fully into the US team, just like many of us Americans were mad into the Mexican team, they were mutual home teams!
