Americans suck. It’s no wonder the world fucking hates them.

It’s a shame we share a border with these filthy assholes.

As an American, your statement is an insult to assholes

BurgerBaron@piefed.social · 15 pts · 312d

It's a shame we slorp down all their propaganda and media of all varieties too.

As an American, you're right. I'm sorry. I promise some of us are trying.

New Yorkers are like that.

The whole state, or even the whole city, isn't all assholes. I feel any sports ball fan group is going to be one of the worst representations of America.

I agree. Sports fans get a bit too invested in the whole thing.

I'm convinced sports has replaced religion for a lot of people. Which is probably for the best in many impressionable peoples cases.

Hey man, I like Canadians just fine. Most of us do. Yankees fans... Well, that's why I'm a Mets fan haha

Americans were also acting like a bunch of dick heads to European players in the Ryder cup, very classy.

If a child molester was telling me what to do I'd be irritable too.

Thedogdrinkscoffee@lemmy.ca · 33 pts · 312d (1 reply)

I think they are really comfortable with their molester in chief, and his molester administration. It's a molester nation.

ObstreperousCanadian@lemmy.ca · 6 pts · 312d

If they didn't like it, they'd have done something about it.

That sucks. As a member of the of the American military, you are required to stand and salute the flag of all friendly countries during their national anthem. As a veteran, I am proud to stand and give the civilian salute (hand over heart) for the national anthem of all friendly countries. I was always embarrassed by my fellow Americans who didn't show their allies proper respect.

Lemmyoutofhere@lemmy.ca · 27 pts · 312d

Don’t care what fascists think.

MadMadBunny@lemmy.ca · 24 pts · 312d

Sore losers.

Poor sportsmanliness

Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world · 13 pts · 312d (5 replies)

The umpires should have disqualified the Yankees for this

SlartyBartFast@sh.itjust.works · 10 pts · 312d (4 replies)

I can't agree; it wasn't the Yankees' fault, the heckling came from the peanut gallery

Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world · 15 pts · 312d (1 reply)

Alright, eject all the fans.

SlartyBartFast@sh.itjust.works · 7 pts · 312d

That's a plan I can get behind

LycanGalen@lemmy.world · 13 pts · 312d (1 reply)

There are other sports that penalise the offending fans' team for fan misbehaviour, delays to game, etc. Lacrosse, and soccer, do at least. It's an effective way to get fans to settle down when their actions cost their team possession, a penalty shot, etc. So maybe don't remove the team, but I don't see why they can't do something similar.

SlartyBartFast@sh.itjust.works · 8 pts · 312d

You make a very good point. I think I'm swayed on the matter

hperrin@lemmy.ca · 14 pts · 312d

Fuck the Yankees and fuck the Yankees fans.

GrindingGears@lemmy.ca · 12 pts · 312d

Well it always feels a little extra special ending the Yankees season, so fuckin suck it a little extra bit New York.

jontree255@lemmy.world · 11 pts · 312d

Sounds like typical Yankees fans combined with MAGA asshats.

Formfiller@lemmy.world · 10 pts · 312d

Wow that’s messed up
