    Re: Breaking News From Austria

    I would strongly suggest that NOBODY make an ArseAm banner on their own. Couple of reasons:

    1. Quality - Shoddy workmanship will not be tolerated.
    2. Uniformity - ArseAm LA should look something like ArseAm DC, with of course local touches.
    3. Price - If we order four banners from one person, we should be able to get a bit of a brake. Also, the massive war chest that ArseAm has will go towards the creation of these things.

    So, if you want to have an official, local, ArseAm banner, please speak to me or Mike.

    Oddly enough, there weren't too many Mexican folks expressing an interest in forming an Arsenal Supporters group on these here boards lo those many years ago.

    Great point Phishy... shouldnt it be Arsenal North America? :)

    Of course many Europeans just refer to North America as America (why i dont know...). But us Canadians can be sensitive!

    That's definitely Coach! It will probably be a gigantic rebel flag with some tiny Arsenal crests and UK flags placed tastefully to the side so as not to disturb the "important flag".

    Should we blame the government, or blame society,
    or should we blame the images on tv No!
    Blame Canada! Blame Canada

    With all their beady little eyes,
    their flapping heads so full of lies

    Blame Canada!
    Blame Canada!

    We need to form a full assault, it's Canada's fault!
    Don't blame me, for my son Stan,
    He saw the darn cartoon, and now he's off to join the klan!

    And my boy eric once, had my picture on his shelf, but now when I see him, he tells me to ******** myself

    Well, Blame Canada!

    It seems that everything's gone wrong since
    Canada came along
    Blame Canada!
    Blame Canada!

    Definetely.

    I thought we had talked about something along the lines of the current banner with the local "symbol" replacing the Canadian flag.

    Just put a silohouette of the Alamo where the Canadian flag is and there you have it: ArseAm Texas.

    Actually, the Texas flag ALWAYS comes first.


    We'll just out tiny little state flags from Arkansas, Louisianna, Oklahoma, and Mississippi around the edges of the outline of the Alamo.

    And, since Mississippi has the 'Stars and Bars" in their state flag, all the bases are covered... :D

    I was going to suggest replacing the Canadian flag with a picture of Kenny Rogers shoving the cameraman for the "ArseAm Texas" banner, but that's just me. :D

    Didn't mean to offend, but the regional flag would have to lose something.

    I would never disparage Canada, as Canada gave us the greatest gift of all: HOCKEY!

    It's a quote from South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut's Oscar nominated song, "Blame Canada."
