And we really suck at grammar and syntax.






Seriously, though.

You're right, to an extent.

I'm a huge US Soccer fan as well as an LSU fan, and the reactions are pretty much the same. Regardless of the results in the last four years, every one bitched about damn near everything, from administration to coaches to players to player choice to opponent choice to jersey choice.

The basic assumption from most internet fans is that the US should dominate the entire planet at soccer, and anything less is an abject failure, even though history shows that no one does that.

Same thing with LSU. Two national championships in the last 10 years means nothing to LSU fans. We should be #1 at all times, and beating teams 75 to -18 every week. Anything less than that is failure, and should result in firings and scholarship removals, even though history shows that no one does that.

This is what years and years of breeding "me, me, me, me, me", "go big or go home" attitudes in this country has brought.

Sometimes I hate America.
