Very good point about the obsession with making all sports as white free as possible. Don, you are the world expert on the caste system. I defer to your incredible knowledge on this subject. I hope you will permit me to make the observation many non Jews also believe one white player is one too many. This world cup has shown except for Tim Howard (Hungarian mother)all our good players have been ,gasp!! white. As I've posted previously on this forum, I've been banned from the largest forum devoted to soccer only: Big Soccer. I committed the crime of questioning why the US needs more non-white soccer players. On that forum white players are constantly degraded as suburban white boys who couldn't make the football team. That forum is dominated by illegal aliens from Mexico or their children, who obviously grew up in this country as evidenced by their excellent knowledge of American slang and average proficiency in English. Despite the hysteria for including more hispanic players on the US team, I don't see hispanics on our current National team making positive contributions.

I also mentioned before that one site I checked listed 40 of the top 50 players in the World Cup as white players.

According to CNNSI this is what Anelka said to the French coach to get himself thrown off the team:

"Go f--k yourself, you dirty son of a b---h"

I heard Ribery and Evra were telling the coach who to play. Both should be benched, if the coach had any guts.

From one of Highlander's links: Now the team has refused to train after one of their players was sent home for insulting the coach. What a quintessentially French thing to do.

Actually it is not quintessentially French, and that is the problem with the team: They are not French. Even though rugby is less popular than soccer in France the French public favour their rugby team by a margin of 2 to 1.

Exactly,why does the media keep calling them French?

Kaka red carded. He will miss the match against Portugal and his Real Madrid teammate. Why Dunga, the Brazil manager kept Kaka on when the match was clearly won is a mystery, especially after he got that first yellow card.

The French team is made up of mostly African thugs, cheaters, and wiggers, and they weren't even supposed to be here. (it should have been Ireland instead).

So, karma is doing its job perfectly, and this disaster could not happen to a more deserving team. No one will point out the elephant in the room, but the solution to the French problemn is a simple one: Get rid of the Africans, and bring in more white, French players.

It was not a deserving card, either. The African clearly flopped, the ref bought it, and Kaka got sent off. In fact, after the Ivory Coast fell behind 0-3, they began resorting to thuggery, cheap shots, and flops and things got pretty ugly for a while.

Another African team bites the dust.

Name-calling"¦a fine retort to an intelligent post.

However, you are certainly correct in suggesting that the U.S. is a much improved national squad. I wouldn't mind the U.S. advancing (and I loathe American athletics) to the final 16 along with Slovenia"¦but only because the other teams in Group C, England and Algeria, are so disgustingly African.

I wish there were some way for Australia and New Zealand to advance. Both teams lack "star power"Â￾ (which is overrated in the World Cup anyway), but are tough athletes with a "nothing to lose"Â￾ mentality.

Just like we have been saying, John Terry and Michael Owen call for Joe Cole to play. Owen Says England should play a 4-3-3 with Barry, Lampard and Gerrard at MF and Rooney up front alone being supported by Cole and Lennon on the wings. England should have 7 whites and 4 mulattoes. It could have been 8 had Green not made that blunder.

There is no reason SWP and Heskey should be playing now.Edited by: Europe

Jwhite96--I don't understand your sharp criticism and name calling of Rebajlo, it makes no sense. You are injecting unnecessary bad blood into this section.
Rebajlocogently answeredyour objections/points and explained himself and his contribution to this section very well.

Then you respond with no substance at all...andsimply say that he is "an aussie with a chip on his shoulder."

Come on youcan do better than that.

Let's root for our teams...all-white or mostly white...this could still turn out to be a good world cup for whites. Argentina, Uruguay, Spain, Italy, New Zealand, ...there's a lot to cheer for.

mostly black France could make an exit...and England's 6-5 black squad could make an exit as well.

The US squad could advance behind whites such as Donovan, Bradley, and Dempsey.Edited by: Solomon Kane

I agree. As someone who doesn't follow soccer, I've found this thread to be very informative and entertaining -- except for this completely unnecessary rancor and name calling.

Don; You are right. I don't want to waste your time getting into the reasons this particular poster pushes my buttons.However, you and S.Kane aren't aware how he has insulted our team as well as me. I didn't just call this guy a punk without reason. I'm sorry I'm thin-skinned when someone comes on an American based web site and mocks and degrades our great white soccer stars. Here are a few examples from the England vs USA thread in the soccer section in which he mocked the ability of the US team, and insulted me.

"I must say that You are seriously deluded (i.e. delusional/psychotic) if You believe that there is some kind of conspiracy to rob the United States of it's rightful spot at the pinnacle of world football.o wins, that's for sure. Your glittering paladins were done by the footballing giants of Costa Rica during the World Cup qualifiers".
(he is mocking the US team) .

I'm sure regular posters would find someone who goes out of his way to belittle a white friendly college football team, annoying.

The German coach of Bayern Munich's practice team said Landon Donovan wasn't good enough for the practice team. Then B. Munich fired their coach Jurgen Klinsmann for having the temerity to bring over Landon Donovan . Anyone could plainly see Donovan is a world class player. His goal against Slovenia was incredible .

The practice team coach's put down of Donovan is similar to Lovie Smith's asking if Brock Forsey was the waterboy.When I recounted Donovan's treatment in Europe this poster replied: "What is the reason for this purportedly incredible bias against American players in Europe? Do those evil European managers fear an influx of endless sublime American talent that will squeeze out the likes of Messi, Gerrard, and Rooney? (Please pardon the sarcasm)."
To me this is exactly like a DWF saying there is no discrimination against whites in football, and then sarcastically saying " Do coaches refuse to give white skill players any chances because whites might become starters at all the skill positions".
When I predicted the USA would be cheated out of at least one win ,which happened against Slovenia:"Originally posted by jwhite96
The only way the US doesn't make it out of the group stage is if FIFA decides they will not advance and the red cards start flying" this guy again with his sarcastic tone put down the USA :

" Mate, that's pure arrogance and conceit. If an English guy made such a statement regarding his team, You'd probably rupture Yourself in righteous fury.
Well, after Your eye-opening observations, I don't know if I should even bother getting up to watch the match. After all, the grossly overrated English are sure to be be torn apart by the masters of technical football, the United States. Unless, of course, FIFA cheats the Americans - again... "

It's only an opinion but Rebaljo is an anti-American troll.

Here's a picture of the magnificant "Frenchman" Anelka at the Cape Town airport on this way out after being kicked-off the team.
smiley11.gif


He doesn't seem to broken up about it. The French team is the joke of the world right now, and they are paying a heavy price for loading up the roster with all these African players.

france5-420x0.jpg


And here's a picture of the team, who support this cretin for insulting the coach and decided not to train:

france1-420x0.jpg


Looks like the French media is tearing the team apart, so that's good:


France24 wrote in an editorial that Anelka, who plays for Chelsea in the English Premier League, had a reputation for being the "enfant terrible of French football".

"While his individual talent is undeniable, Anelka has repeatedly failed to win over the hearts of his compatriots.

"His reputation as the enfant terrible of French football and his unsociable character kept him from being picked during the three previous World Cups."

Observers like Lizarazu were already furious at Anelka's casual attitude during France's first two games against Uruguay and Mexico.

"What bothers me is Nicolas Anelka's performance in the first half. I saw a player strolling ... strolling in the World Cup!" Lizarazu said.

"He wasn't aggressive, wasn't interested in the game. Domenech took him off at the break, but should have done so before. You shouldn't play in a selfish manner, you have to show you're up for it."

Winner of the English Premier League's Golden Boot in 2008/09, Anelka has long been an enigmatic player for France.

He scored twice in a stunning performance against England way back in 1999, but then refused to play under coach Jacques Santini.

He spent three years out of the national team until Domenech called him back up in November 2005.

Six months later, Domenech snubbed him for the 2006 squad. But Anelka seemed to have put that behind him when he scored a deflected goal against Ireland in a World Cup play-off last November.

Anelka's abrupt nature has made him few friends over a topsy-turvy career during which he has always spoken his mind.

In 2003, Anelka reportedly said after he was rejected for Les Bleus by then-manager Santini: "I do not need the French squad. If he kneels before me and apologises, then I'll think about it."Â￾

But his unselfish attitude for Chelsea this season won him many admirers, and his reputation had greatly improved since his "Le Sulk" days.

Surprise loss to Mexico

The French press has churned out headline after headline on Les Bleus in the past week, calling them "the impostors", "disgraceful" and "pathetic" after their Mexico loss.

"France woke up looking at a field of ruins - the national team - with a lump in their throat, a few tears in their eyes, but Les Bleus don't deserve it," wrote Fabrice Jouhaud, editor-in-chief of L'Equipe.

"No sadness, no grief, above all no anger ... You can only laugh at the fact that those players are big in the head and not so big below the belt," he added.

L'Equipe's football lead writer Vincent Duluc lamented that "the only thing left of a big dream and of a former great soccer country is the emptiness ... of a goalless first round ... the feeling of a total wreck, in game and spirit".

The other national newspapers were equally critical. "It was Waterloo in the Limpopo", wrote the conservative Le Figaro referring to Napoleon's defeat in 1815 and to the South African province where the game took place.

France Soir claimed that "Les Bleus shamed France" and added: "If all the rumours buzzing around them are confirmed they will deserve the title of worst internationals in the history of France football, maybe not as players but surely as men."

Le Monde, one of the most respected newspapers in France, drew a parallel between "les Bleus vanquished, humiliated, pilloried" and 2010 France.

"Their (Les Bleus) lack of leadership, strategy, team spirit ... all these spoiled talents, these unused resources form the cruel metaphor of a country that is often struggling to gather together, overcome glumness and division, and mobilise its strength," the paper said in an unsigned editorial.

Give it a rest, mate - I've explained myself at length often enough andother posters appear to see this.If You believe that somebody who doesn't agree with You about the merits of the United States national team must instantly be an anti-American troll (whatever that is), well, there's nothing anyone can say that shall convince You otherwise. What was I doingfor 60-odd posts?Biding my time for the opportunity to unload on the United States by criticising Your opinions about the football team?
smiley24.gif


I'm sure that Don Wassall and Solomon Kane haveread my posts in the USA vs England thread. If not, here is the link - I've got nothing to hide:

http://www.castefootball.us/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=12219&amp;title=usa-verses-england

Another thing - if You are going to quote me (or anyone else, for that matter), please do it properly, without injecting Your own words into the quote itself, as You did in Your last post. Here is what I actually wrote (the highlighted passage puts the "glittering paladins" phrase into context):

Rebajlo said:
But, with all due respect, I must say that You are seriously deluded if You believe thatthere is some kind of conspiracy to rob the United States of it's rightful spot at thepinnacle ofworld football. Sorry for sounding a bit abrasive, but Your aggressively jingoistic posts are bordering on the openly insulting (although Iwill assume that this was not Your intention...).

and

Rebajlo said:
Youkeep referring to the fact that the U.S. - as opposed to England - heroically ended Spain's "record" unbeaten streak.What exactly, pray tell, does that prove?If the U.S. played Spain in, let's say, five competitive matches per year, they certainly wouldn't rack up two wins, that's for sure. As other posters have said, upsets occur. After all, Your glitteringpaladins were done by the footballing giants of Costa Rica during the World Cup qualifiers. If You use a single game as some kind of almighty yardstick proving that the United States' team is capable of achieving that which other European nations cannot, well that speaks for itself.

You still raise the issue of anti-American discrimination at European clubs. Do You really want to know who is being discriminated against in European club football? The answer is this: White European players. Just look at the team sheets of the top three tiers of any European nation. For instance, Africans and Brazilians turnout in the lower leagues of Poland. The Bundesliga is brimming with foreigners - why are only Americans supposedly excluded from the mix?

When You make such a statement, what do You seriously expect people to say? "Yeah, that's right, nobody stands a chance against the United States - after all, they beat Spain in the Confederations Cup!" ? Especially after You've spent a few posts continuously running down English players in particular and European players in general.Then, after all of Your talk about the referee being carefully chosen, the implication being that he wasselected to screw over the United States and rig an England win, there is zero evidence of anti-American bias and, despite a subpar English performance, the U.S. only manages to "score" via Robert Green's blunder, You came up with these humble statements:

jwhite96 said:
If there is any gap in ability it's England which suffers the gap. The US outplayed England. They came closer to winning the game. ... I saw US players beating English millionaire pretty boys who are slow and have no more talent than the US players...
...You are an angry English fan who will not accept England is never going to win a world cup again or even make a semifinal.

You never even acknowledged that the United States was fortunate to get a draw due to Green's basichandling error - all you couldmanage was more jingoistic insults. Guess what? To gain somesemblance of credibility, one mustdisplay at least a modicum ofobjectivity.Unfortunately, You have consistently failed to do this.

I have never claimed that England are an absolutely top-draw team, nor have I claimed that the United States is sh*te. I have stated, in response to Your praise of these players,that Jay DeMerit is a journeyman, that Edson Buddle is a no-name black who has never played outside the United States, and that another black, Jozy Altidore, has achieved nothing in Europe. Oh, yes, and that Your hero Landon Donovan is not one of the world's leading players. If You sift through my posts, I never claimed that Donovan is crap, simply that he is nowhere nearworld-class. But I guess that these heinous crimes against Your sensibilities make me an anti-American troll, especially as I am posting on an American website...

I'm not attempting to be smug or superior, but consider my comments about the Socceroos. Have I ever stated that they are a brilliant team? I have provided whatI hope can be labelled as objective analysis of Australia's games, admitting, for example,that we were rubbish against Germany and that we were fortunate that the Ghanaian goalkeeper's failure to hold Bresciano's free kick essentially gifted us a goal. How about my words on the England - Algeria match? Ah, yes, but according to You, I'm just a bitter England fan...

Anyway, once again I'd like to apologise to the other forum members for engaging in this sometimes unseemly spat with jwhite96. As I have said before, I view the United States as a decent side and am in no way insulting the United States and it's people. Best of luck to Your team.

This Portugal lopsided win was very important, because now even if Portugal loses to Brazil and Ivory Coast beats North Korea (both reasonable outcomes), Portugal should win the tie breaker with Ivory Coast because it now has a massive goals for/goals against differential.

Chile beats Switzerland 1-0. Didn't see the match, but before I read the report I was guessing a penalty kick. As it was, Switzerland played a man down for the final 60 minutes. I haven't seen the foul, but it seems too easy for the referee to dramatically effect the outcome of these games; and usually against the white teams.

Some say Anelka refused to take a penalty kick in the Champions League final for Chelsea against Man United at the end of the game because the coach didn't give him enough time to warm up, so Terry ,a central defender, had to take it and slipped and missed. Anelka finally took the last one and missed. I don't know if Terry wnated to take it over him or not.If this incident is true, he is a highly paid striker and yet refuses to take the potential game winning kick? This guy is pathetic.

Anelka has had a lot of transfer money paid for him from club to club. He was on Arsenal early in his career and Wenger, who loves black guys,got rid of him. I don't know what the reasons were.

I am sure Le Monde loves the multicultural society that France is becoming as long as the editors don't have to live in the suburbs with all these people adding to the lovely diversity that France is becoming.Edited by: Europe

Jwhite96, Do you think Donovan is better than Joe Cole. I think Cole is better. I am not saying Landon is not a very good player, but I think Cole is better. I would rather have Landon than SWP or even Lennon I think.

Rebajlo is right about all the discrimination in Europe for all these Africans, Brazailians etc. It makes me sick to here the announcers rattle off the Prem teams that these foreigners play for, which means all these stupid white Englishman are forking out their money to watch players like Palacios of Honduras while a white English guy is playing in the Championsip. Look at how they sign up guys like Eddie Johnson and Altidore. Plus, you have Edu and Beasely at the Rangers, while Bradley is still on a weak German side. While I am against all these foreigners, it will be interesting to see if an English club tries to sign Bradley.Edited by: Europe
