Hey man, American beer has NOTHING on European beer :stuck_out_tongue: Have you ever been to Belgium or Germany? The best beer in the world matey…and are you saying European people are less free than Americans???

With regards to the shaved armpits thing…european girls do shave. I think a few mediterranean women don’t however.

And i’m not even gonna go there with guns :slight_smile:

Actually European beer has nothing on Australian beer but we could argue that until the cows come home, and yes I am absolutely saying that Europeans are less free than Americans. And that’s pathetic because Americans aren’t all that free. Ask a Brit who not only isn’t allowed to carry a gun, but also can be jailed for carying a pocketknife. Ask a muslim in Paris who is denied their right to wear a stupid Burkha in school. Ask a German who is required to inform the gov’t when they move for more than two weeks or the cops show up at their door looking for them.

And I aboslutely will go there with the gun thing. A gov’t that denies your right to self defense, denies your most basic right of self preservation, your very right to exist.

Don’t sweat it though, us Americans will be right there with you guys in a decade or two.

Dude!!! You are so far out of touch, it’s pathetic. I had to google (greece basketball) to find out exactly what you’re talking about.

I am willing to bet that the average american has never even heard of the world basketball championship. The NCAA Final Four would be far more known to americans. Just one proud americans opinion. [/quote]

We have an undefeatable international basketball team? Who’s on it?

You think Americans have that much pride in our basketball?

I care about as much about that as I Cup.

See, it’s just that your players are good, but I hate when they show off.
That’s why I stopped watching NBA.
I hate constant bragging, banging their chest, etc.

So nothing personal:)

your statement really surprises me. I never thought of that, I was of opinion that you rank basketball close to american football, baseball…

That’s why most people have stopped watching NBA, basketball sux now no teamwork at all

The real problem was the ease with which they achieved deep penetration of our goal zone. They really caught us with our pants down.

Although in retrospect, could we really be expected to guard our hoops against such a powerful, thrusting offense?

Yeah, well I Greece needed something. Ever since Aristotle died, it’s kinda been all downhill for you fucks hasn’t it?

Don’t you mean TWO salads (Caesar salad)? I think you’ve vastly underestimated their salad making ability. They’re not some one trick pony.

I’d agree that the NBA has become unentertaining to watch. Gone are the days of actual “teams”. Now all that’s left is 10 egos on the court competing for who can make the most highlight reels.

I’m also one of those people who are kind of glad in a way that the last couple olympic teams have done so “poorly” (since they are expected to simply roll over any and all competition). This illustrates that the game is being ruined. Basketball is a team sport, and yet the NBA encourages it’s players to insert a great big “I” right smack in the middle of the word team.

What really angers me is when these teams are reffered to as “Dream Team (insert number)”. There was only one “Dream Team” and it was only a dream team because even though every one of it’s members was a future hall of famer, they all knew how to play as a team.

Good training,

Caesar is Roman and the his dressing sucks, low fat or regular.

Note that Pyrros Dimas, a Greek, is a three time olympic gold winning Powerlifter. There is another thread about him started a few days ago.

I agree however, there shouldnt be any bragging rights against the US Basketball teams as much as there should be Japanese bragging rights for baseball competetion (there are a few who make these comments. No names shall be mentioned).

I cant imagine anyway the US holding basketball as emitome of valor. The person who thinks this win is so monumental should keep it on the low. Seriously.

Rugby’s great, but really, don’t compare the two.

The hitting is much harder in football. You are tired as fuck in rugby. They’re just different.

Also, NBA is fairly popular, but this is fuck’n T-Nation, so obviously football is the prime choice…

I’m going to take a wild guess and assume you’ve never played American football… the real shit, not throwing a ball around in your backyard.

How can you compare tackling someone while covered in plastic and foam pads to a game where you have no protective gear besides a mouth guard?

Well, hm, how can I say this… I’m not a Greek.

I just enjoy when someone who thinks he’s from another planet because he earns more than 5mil a year gets fucked.

That’s all
