well j-f you just told us several reasons that shows that the USA is the place to come to and your upset because in the spirit of sports Americans cheer for their team with enthusiasm.

I'm an English Scotch Yankee American. My dad came to America when he was two. My mom came from Scotch ancestors from many generations in New Hampshire. England and it's empire spread the English Western Civilization around the world and the Scotch provided the English with lot of soldiers to spread the word. America is the evolution of English Western Civilization and I'm proud to be an American. But I judge all men by their honor and integrity and not other associations.

If I ever see any honor or integrity in anything you say I'll let you know.

JF, both of my grandparents came to America at the turn of the century. They became Americans then and we have been Americans ever since. They knew then that America was the greatest country in the world and I know it today.

I am still waiting for you to give me 1 country in this whole big world you think is better, on balance, than the United States of America.

You need to get over your shame because it is ill founded.
America is great because it's people are great. When you put down America you put down it's people. America is great because it's system is great. There are parts of the world that needs to get it's head out of it's ass, get past it's petty jealousy and look at why we are great.

Now, what's the name of that country?????
