Your apology doesn't exactly seem sincere to me... more like doubling down?

Up the Krauts!!!!

I actually don't care either way... especially as the England squad couldn't fight their way out of a wet paperbag....

Here, on this very message board over the years I've wished for meteors and other catastrophes to fall on:

1. The Duke-UNC basketball game
2. The Colts in the RCA dome
3. Yankee Stadium (old and new)
4. Neyland Stadium in Knoxville
5. Mile-High Stadium
6. New Comisky Field in Chicago
7. Minute Maid Park in Houston
8. Whatever the Florida Marlins call their stadium these days
9. And I also prayed for an earthquake to swallow up the Staples Center, the Lakers and their fanbase (while sparing the millions of innocent Angelinos who aren't lakeshow fans)...

That's sports, I guess...When I hate on a team, I really hate on a team...

I love sports as much as anyone but the only people I hate in that context are cheaters and trash-talkers. Even at that I would never speak of them in the fashion you do. It's going too far, much too far. Even Luis Suarez doesn't deserve that.
