It’s almost as if relying upon people who have never won the World Cup when playing for their own nations to win it for your own is a suboptimal strategy
Maybe it’s partly because I’m tired and have already had a few beers, but that just made NO sense to me for a second. Then I realized, oh yeah, this is super-racist Vox Day talking, and he’s conflating nationality with race. Does he not realize that requirement for being on a certain country’s team in the World Cup is (like it is in the Olympics and probably any other international sports competition) that you have to be a citizen of that country, and not what your racial background is?
Or to put it another way, an African team never won a gold medal in basketball at the Olympics, but the 1992 US "Dream Team” did, and they’re considered to be one of the best teams put together in sports at any time. Looking at that roster again, let’s see…8 black guys, and 4 white guys. And it might have been 9 and 3, if Michael Jordan hadn’t had a previous beef with Isiah Thomas. (as a longtime Pistons fan, I’m still kinda ticked about that, but I do get it. If Jordan says he doesn’t wanna play with him, you go along with him, lol)
