    Why do you hate white people so much? I'm mexican and I love white people. None of my mexican friends or family hate white people. Honestly, it seems like a subset of white people hate white people more than anyone else. 

    It begins with self loathing and spreads from there.

  2. The "just got out of prison" youtube channels consistently claim that prison politics are universally racial and white dudes must clique up with white prison gangs in order to eke out a tolerable existence in medium or high security prisons.  Once in those gangs, you have to do as told by the shot callers which invariably involves shanking someone.

    It’s also not time to declare us as the next Nebraska/Michigan/Tennessee/etc....  

    Michigan has been a better program than Texas since 2009.  Michigan has been an 8-4 program (deflated by 2-4 COVID season) while Texas has been a 7-5 program (inflated by 7-3 COVID season).  Michigan has had 4 10-win seasons and Top-15 finishes (11, 15, 16, 18) while Texas has had 1 (18).  Michigan has had 2 losing seasons while Texas has had 4. Texas has been actually closer to Nebraska than Michigan since 2009 although Nebraska has had 6 9-win seasons during that period compared to Texas' 2.

    There is no bigger joke in college football right now than Texas.  It is what it is.

    LHN isn’t why Urban turned down Texas. 

    Yeah, If LHN was the sticking point, they would have developed a workaround.  As CTJ stated above, the core members of Urban's team wouldn't leave a very stable situation with comparable money in Columbus immediately after signing arguably the best recruiting class in school history.

    Yeah if Casey repeats the worst game he's ever had that is completely unlike any other game he has played. Bunch of fucking idiots around here. 

    Oklahoma State also has an elite pass defense.  That said, Baylor's pass D (28th in adjusted pass efficiency and top-50 in the adjusted yards numbers) is better than the other teams Casey has started against and Iowa State's is the best we play other this season other than OSU.  Not cakewalk defenses the next two game.s

    He also lost to Georgia Southern in a game in which GS attempted zero passes.

     

    And yet he would have played for the National Championship in 2012 with Urban's team if ND hadn't miraculously survived 5 games against shitty teams.  Everyone knows Muschamp is a poor HC.

    He’s left every program better than it was when he started. 

    Yup.  People forget that Muschamp went 11-2 his second year.  Bowling Green went 11-3 and 9-3 in the two years after Urban left and Whittingham kept Utah performing at a high level for years after he left.  Ohio State still hasn't lost a conference game since Urban left.

    LeBron has been super popular his entire time in the league and the only real blemish people try and push on him constantly is the decision which is stupid. Kobe was more hated because he acted like he was Michael Jordan from the get go and until he won a championship without Shaq a lot of people questioned him. He wasn’t nearly as popular until then as he ended up being later and then how the narrative has changed since his tragic death even more. But I’m a Spurs fan so maybe I have some biases lol.

    Well that and rape

    Derka thinks the USMNT/US Soccer just discovered minorities while:

    10 years ago: Tim Howard, Nick Rimando, Timothy Chandler, Michael Orozco, Oguchi Onyewu, Omar Gonzalez, Fabian Johnson, Edgar Castillo, Maurice Edu, Alfredo Morales, Ricardo Clark, Jermaine Jones, Jose Torres, Juan Agudelo, Jozy Altidore, Hercules Gomez, Teal Bunbury and Edson Buddle

    15 years ago: Howard, Marvelle Wynn, Cory Gibbs, Gooch, Bocanegra, Clark, Edu, Mastroeni, DMB, Lee Nguyen, Brian Ching, Charlie Davies, Robbie Findley, Freddie Adu, Brian Ching and Eddie Johnson

    20 years ago: Nick Rimando, Howard, Eddie Pope, Regis, Balboa, Robin Fraser, Bocanegra, Llamosa, Stewart, Mastroeni, Sanneh, Reyna, Cobi Jones, Brian West and Jeff Cunningham

    25 years ago: Balboa, Fraser, Pope, Sanneh, Ramiro Corrales, Mark Chung, Ramos, Reyna, Jones, Martin Vasquez, Dante Washington. 

    Less players also got called up in the 90s and early 00s (around 40-45 a year compared to around 60 now). 

    As previously noted, the diversity of the squad has increased as the USMNT and U.S. soccer has evolved from a predominantly white sport consisting of former college soccer players to a multiracial professional one, but to claim that the USMNT used to consist of 95% white dudes misrepresents the history of the USMNT and ignores and erases the contributions of dozens of minority players who have played for the USMNT for decades.    

    Tons of people now in their 30s, 40s and 50s in the Midwest learned to love the game of soccer watching the Crew's African-American forward line of Edson Buddle, Brian West, Jeff Cunningham and Dante Washington in old (then new) Crew Stadium win the Crew its first major trophy (2002 Open Cup).  Derka has no idea and doesn't give a fuck that these guys existed or inspired tons of kids in the Midwest of all races to play/love soccer.  Believe me, these dudes (who are all now in their 40s) would slap the donut out of Derka's gaping maw if he cavalierly denied their existence/influence/achievements in their presence.  It pisses me off that incredible US soccer history like the early 2000s Crew forward lineup is ignored/forgotten so that a bunch of poseur ignoramuses can pretend that their current experience is more groundbreaking than it actually is.   

    I will now move on.

  10. A 1994 starting lineup including 3 latinos and 1 black guy doesn't exactly support your recollection of 21-22 white dudes on a 23 man roster.  You are entirely incapable of admitting when you are wrong even when presented with incontrovertible evidence of your ignorance.  You consistently spew nonsense on topics you admittedly know nothing about.  I'm not disputing that the team isn't more diverse now, which it obviously is based on facts.  I'm disputing your attempts to portray the USMNT rosters of yore as bastions of whiteness which they obviously weren't again based on facts.

    i make a post about black players during my time watching the USMNT, you retort with some snarky BS listing a bunch of fair skinned latino dudes whom i've never even heard of (save Tab Ramos) or seen play because they all played before my time. really dope post. i'm sure every young black kid in America was deeply inspired and saw a glimpse of themselves whenever they watched this guy:

    but don't let being wrong stop you from getting offended or being an ass. 

    As suspected, not brown enough for Derka.  Perhaps refrain from providing history lessons to a group of people infinitely more educated on the subject at hand than you.  The USMNT has never been a bastion of whiteness as you claimed (21-22 white guys on 23 man rosters is laughably inaccurate), and your fantastical recollection of its history (which you admit above that you have zero knowledge of) required correction.  The USWNT, on the other, does have an entirely different history in which rosters were overwhelmingly white.  Instead of lashing out when encountered by your own ignorance, try educating yourself on a topic you purport to have an interest in.  Otherwise, it's just more worthless Derka diarrhea.

  12. Game thoughts:

    The new Crew stadium is fantastic.  There was a sprinkling of Costa Ricans in attendance but the atmosphere understandably lacked the intensity of a US-Mexico game.  I live around 20 minutes from the stadium and was home 25 minutes after the final whistle.        

    McKennie and Dest were dire the first 10 minutes but then settled into the game and we controlled the game from there.  Dest dominated his flank even when he was giving the ball away early.  Costa Rica had no answer for him and he was loving it.  Constantly pumping up the crowd and his teammates.  Great to see from him.

    The Costa Ricans were noticeably slower everywhere on the field than their American counterparts and we actually used our speed to our advantage.  I do think that we could press even more aggressively with our front three.  We have the youth, legs, and depth to put the slower CONCACAF defenders under more consistent pressure.  

    Musah is a beast and compliments Weston and Adams very well.  He has continuously carried the ball forward from defense to attack and no one in the pool (other than Puli) can consistently provide those driving runs.  Gregg clearly likes him and it will be very interesting to see if he maintains those three as his first choice MF.

    Puli obviously slides right back into the lineup for Weah but I'm not sure where Reyna goes.  Aaronson works so hard for the team and does so much dirty work in pressing and winning the ball back that I'm not sure Reyna does.  I also don't know if you want to disrupt the MF that started against Costa Rica.  Fortunately we have a brilliant manager more than capable of resolving this difficult issue to everyone's satisfaction.

    Tony Sanneh, David Regis, and Earnie Stewart, don't want to pull the race card, but they will if they have to.

    A little kid by the name of DaMarcus Beasley was probably easy to overlook, because the 2000 Olympic Team didn't get much TV coverage in the USA. Just print, so it was not easy to know that DaMarcus was the name of a player of color. 👀

    ...DaFuck...?

    And Clavijo, Ramos, Balboa, Hugo Perez, Mastoreni, Reyna and Llamosa.  Probably not brown enough though.  Maybe Derka just watched the USWNT in his youth.
