(Soccer) The Mexican press are taking SuperLiga results badly ;)
 
Out of the eight teams in the first ever SuperLiga (4 Top Mexican teams, and 4 teams from MLS).. the four semifinalists are set, and there's only one Mexican team left in it.

Prompting this cartoon:



Bird - In Superliga they treat me like an undocumented person
DC Fan - Worse...we give them a chance to run

Speaking as someone who had to put up with a "Oh.. all those US victories over mexico are flukes" group at my last job.. oh so sweet ;)

I think it's one of those tournaments that if they win, Mexico wouldn't care but if they lose it's awful

Maybe a good analogy would be if we lost in basketball to Puerto Rico. Now that would be embarrassing.

What an odd representation of United. I think Brian Carroll may be blond with blue eyes, but he's been stinking up the joint. Most of the quality on the team is latin.
