As an American I'll forgive you as it's a known fact Geography is not yuor strongest point.
Africa is a big place made up of different cultures /languages.....South Africa has very little in common with many countries in Africa as a whole....but carry on.
you know what mongtard...i know plenty about geography, and just because you helped prop up the dying days of the Botha empire in your youth in SA it doesn't invalidate my point.
When you strip the local flavor from the story then i feel you've ruined something. Do i hate the sounds of them on the TV? i do. Do i bet they are fucking annoying to some of the fans at the match and the players? Yes.
But i don't have the right to decide that those things supercede the host nations right to maintain their story. And that this is the first cup in Africa, i think you've got to show the host nation some respect. That's all.
India is also a nation made up of a mishmash of different cultures. As is Mexico. And guess what? So is the United States. I've been plenty of polyracial/multi-ethnic places in my life CARL. You haven't cornered the market, Commander McBragg.
