More Stephen Cohen

[CrouchieBoy]

Well if there is one thing we can agree on in this most dysfunctional of families, its that Cohen is indeed a turd burgling fanny.

Fantastic stuff there: keep up the good work! Battles in our name go on all over the world, and it's great to know that people care and DO things.

 

As for England, I hope they get beat. But maybe not by America. Maybe a draw. But beaten by everyone else!

 

Can anyone detach politics and culture from international football? I can never do it.

[Dan Vito Corleone]

Good work.

[The Dude Abides]

What a load of bollocks.

 

Yet the rest of your post is in full agreement with what i said. How odd.

[23_Carra_Gold]

yes - and it's a strategy for developing the grassroots of the game.

 

Anyway, I don't want this to distract from what an utter, UTTER cunt Cohen is - but he has nothing to do with the States - his particular brand of bigotry is most definitely Made in England. The NY fan club is doing some great work on this. Pity there is no Canadian equivalent worthy of the name.

 

He has nothing to do with the States? Really? Blame it all on England, a country he hasn't lived in for years. What an extremely odd thing to say.

English in accent only really and even that's debatable. Went over when he was 19 and joined the US Army, he's a US citizen and must be over 45.

 

I agree it wasn't the best thing for him to say, especially when responding to a sweeping generalisation!

It just appeared strange to me that even entered the lads head.

 

When I think of Cohen I don't think of a nationality, I think of a part of the female anatomy.

Well done all,don't let Cohen come up for air..the cnut,

I can't stand the Brazil/Nike circus but don't mind the country at all and the US can do my head in in a way other's rarely can but they were one of my favourite teams in the Japan/Korea world cup.

I think what I meant to say was his attitude is not typically American. They just don't seem to have the petty grudges and hatreds over sports that we do. In that, I meant that Cohen is very English. He's probably trying to be even more English by being outrageous. He's an absolute arsehole.

 

But as I said (or meant to), it's a generalisation.

 

Having said that, there isn't much I don't blame England for :whistle:

Only English people act like outrageous arseholes on the radio?

Maybe you should invite a Redsox and a Yankee fan over for dinner, or maybe a Niner and a Raider fan.

 

Or, you'll like this one, a Portland Timbers and a Seattle Sounders fan.

 

Are you English by the way?

No, I'm not English, I'm a scouser.

 

It's a generalisation, as I said.

It's a daft generalisation especially when you were responding to pretty much the same thing.

 

From a fellow Englishman abroad.

Speaking of that, coming up next thursday?

Football is more tribal than American sports simply because we don't have the franchise system (bar one cunt of a club *spits*). Would I be right in thinking that most fans are loyal to their city/state first and that's what starts the best rivalries? Other than that it's good professional rivalry in that teams are at the top of their sports and clash as a result, like the Celtics and Lakers.

 

Either way, Cohen isn't a product of either, he's just a massive weapon.

As of this morning yes I am, was supposed to be in Phoenix watching some baseball but that's now later this month. Quite a lot of Timbers coming up considering it's a pre-season friendly.
