That's a terrible thing to say to a fan of the current holders of the FA Cup...

Are you purposely being as hypocritical as possible?

You say this while complaining that Google didn't make a doodle?

Looks like Google caved to the pressure. The site was down for a minute and now there's a mini flag at the bottom. Happy?

this isn't the only example.

You're in New York, so they figured that you're a liberal and put that there to piss you off.

In the Red States, they took it off in order to piss off the rednecks.

Clearly.
