I found it hilarious that the Irish fans that were at the France - Mexico game were cheering relentlessly for the Mexican team because they had bought tickets thinking Ireland was going to the World Cup, but France knocked them out of the tournament, so now you have 2 of the worlds most infamous alcoholic nations: Mexico and Ireland cheering for the same team!!!
I'm half Irish (the rest Scottish, English and 1/8 Italian) and I still find this very funny. The love for alcohol or inability to handle it well can be genetic lol. Am I really hearing that Ireland came OH SO CLOSE to making the World Cup? That's amazing for a nation with a population of (4 million?) or so. Tell Sam McGuffie, Cory or Ed McCaffrey or Joe Calzaghe that Celtic people aren't some of the most athletic in the world!
foobar, I'd also like to have someone let me know what games to catch coming up and what day/time they'll be on. I don't mind Mexico doing well (certainly much better than racist France!). Mexico has disappointed their countrymen the last World Cup and it would be nice to see them advance a ways, so long as all the last 4 teams are mostly white teams. Some Mexicans have a small black admixture, but it probably isn't much more than in Sicily, Spain or Portugal from the Moorish conquests (as the Moors had some black admixture in them).
I'm not trying to be anti-black here, but I just am not a fan of rap culture and don't think genetically it is a good fit for whites or Amero-Indians to intermarry/ have children with blacks. I happen to be a big fan of learning about the entire American continent Indian culture, it's very interesting and there were lots of good things about it and I've really enjoyed myself the two times I went to Mexico, it's a beautiful country!
