Jay said "How about this? For the first time ever, the US Men's National Soccer Team beat Mexico in their home stadium in Mexico." (crowd applauds) "The US coach attributed the win to a good defense, total commitment, and the fact that we had more Mexican players than they did." Dave www.DaveBrett.com
uhhh. that wouldnt have happened in previous years. love to see (even if it is a joke) more attention on our soccer team. look forward to the gold cup being more of a story in 2013.
It reminds me of that joke told during the Atlanta Olympics. "Did you hear Mexico isn't sending a team to the Olympics this year? Why not? All the Mexican athletes who are world class runners, long jumpers, or swimmers are already in the USA and no one can find them." BTW I'm Mexican-American and I think this is still funny, ok?
It actually WAS kind of funny, because of Gomez, Torres, Castillo, and the goal scorer. I mean, there are 4 players right there would could play for Mexico if they wanted. Hopefully he can recycle this joke after we beat Germany in the group stage in Brazil. PS...we only started 2 players who are eligible only for the US. Castillo, Torres, Gomez-Mexico Landon-Canada Johnson, Jones, Williams-Germany Howard-Hungary Edu-Nigeria Beckerman and Cameron, so far as I know, are only eligible for the US. I assume Beckerman would have a pretty easy time getting Israeli citizenship, but so far as I know he hasn't yet.
That as funny a joke as Leno is capable of telling. Well constructed and he has a point. No problem from me!
