    Y’all don’t want to, I don’t know, take this to the rivalries thread or something?

    I really thought it would be the finals pre-game thread that would turn into the rivalries thread.

    Sure, Mexico has the 4th highest paid athlete in the world, but may I point out that while the total number of bird species identified in Mexico is 1118, the total number of bird species in the US (and territories) is 1270.

    This clearly indicates that the USMNT will win tonight.

    Still not convinced? Well then, maybe I should point out that the USA has the 4th highest ranked archaeology program among world universities? :p

    I don't think I need to explain how this is relevant.

    Did you even read the comment I was replying to? He was making the point that Mexico is a soccer-only nation, which is a false narrative that a lot of people subscribe to, especially as a morale booster whenever the US loses to MX.

    It's like you don't even understand how Neolithic population migrations impact the development of professional boxing in North America.


    (okay, fine, I didn't read the comment)
