Happy One Year Aniversary

All I request is that someone post the "rats" quote.

 

Is that the song that goes "I-yi-yiyi, Somebody stole my sombrero"?

 

This one?

"It hurts us here," Jose Luis Luviano, a fan in Mexico City, said as he punched his chest. Tears melted the Mexican flags painted on his cheeks. "There has to be an end to this disgrace where (Americans) treat us like rats and idiots."

 

Nice. Thanks for the reminder as I almost forgot the greatest game ever.

 

"The US had tremendous speed and they were lucky to get the first goal." - Aguirre

 

LOL.. and the second and all the other 10 goals against 1 for Mexico in the last 7 meetings.

They love to use the word lucky when talking about our wins.

 

Contributing to the retrospective, there is the one year anniversay of the US Soccer Fans in Korea up on US Soccer. (plug)

 

I'll watch it again tonight to celebrate. I guess I'll drink Dos Equis beer. Very appropiate!

 

Enjoy. My day just brightened thinking about this game.

 

I woke up this morning, looked at the calender, and decided that this day was worthy of being used as a sick day.

I was at the game, before, some fat mexican came up to me and my sister (we are indian-american (from asia)) and got in our faces and taunted us with "afhganistannnn . . . afghanistannnn" I was about to destroy that fat phuck but someone calmed me down. After the game a couple of little american kids were kicking a ball around and some dirty mexican went up and punted the ball at one of them. God i hate mexicans. Good beer, food and music though, but those phuckers really are rats.

 

I gotta celebrate this anniversary! I can still remember that day like it was yesterday.

 

oh yes, this game is in my list of the top 3 greatest matches ever. USA vs. Mexico last year was great for pride's sake, but I think that the most important for USSoccer as a whole has to be the USA vs. Germany match. Not only did we play well and creat amazing chances, but it was Germany who later went on to play a great match vs. Brazil in the final to lose on Ronaldo's duet of goals. We earned respect, we earned pride, we earned the interest of more and more people in this country.

1. USA vs. Germany
2. USA vs. Mexico
3. USA vs. England (1950)

Great list. With our amazing run last year most of us tend to forget about the 1950 game.

 

Dear lord this isn't going to go on for the next 4 years is it?

 

nope, it's gonna go on much longer than that.

 

Count your blessings. At least you don't have to put up with this barrage of '02 highlights in your native country.

And yes. But it will certainly quit after '06.

 

Oh no it won't.

 

We'll realize we've arrived when we don't celebrate a win against an eternally mid tier international team for 8th place in the WC.

 

Fixed that one for ya.

 

As long as we can continue to treat them as rats and idiots, that sounds good.

 

Likely since most of us weren't even a twinkle in our mother's eye in 1950.

 

Heck, my mother wasn't even around in 1950.
