They're putting all that other stuff behind them for their country. I'm glad they're playing instead of some of you, who can't seem to put country first in front of even the most trivial of things. You're laughing that I'm taking this seriously, but it's a pretty serious deal to me for some reason.
It's OK. International competition will always mean more to other countries than it will to Americans. I guess it's a testament to how great our leagues are in this country. When the Mexican national team plays a soccer match, the whole freaking country stops down for it....sometimes I wish we were a little more like that...in that one small way.
