Admin got a reaction from Jedi Ram in Canada Pre-World Cup "friendlies" thread: news, gossip and speculation.
But you are really fucking irritating, and we see you guys appear and do this on a regular basis.
You are not special. "Jaded everything sucks Joe" is literally a meme around here.

Cut this shit out, or you are gone. This borderline antagonism is just tiring, we have seen it before.
Participate or leave.

If you had joined sooner than a few hours ago and followed anything, you would know the explanation for that.
There is one and it has nothing to do with Canada Soccer.

Admin got a reaction from RJB in Immigration and Canada Soccer
Nothing good can be Canadian.
I have been told this for 25 years doing this. If you were born here and went to Europe when you were 12, it was the development in Europe, if you came here when you were 12 and became a good player it's development there. Nothing good can come from here, ever. It isn't allowed in the narrative that is Canadian soccer.
I have not read the article, but what is the statistical likelihood that anyone doing anything here is 1st or 2nd generation.

To play devil's advocate for a moment, and purposely take the least charitable take on something like this...
I assume Gladwell and others would come down with a sack of bricks on anyone who would point out that one person was less Canadian than another. I would join them in principle on such a reaction.
Does this not do this in a way? What is the magic regression number of generations to make this critical categorical switch? I personally deplore the idea of this categorical switch existing, but the very people promoting it are the opposite of the ones you think would actually care about this.
I don't tend to read these things because they are often nothing more than pious 'lessons' for the people like me who are assumed to be terrible.

Admin got a reaction from johnyb in March 17th UPDATE: Costa Rica Pregame
For comparison, the bars around the stadium wanted to charge us 100USD per head just to get in.
They are not very large, so none of them wanted a large group on game day without a serious premium.
Alex had to search and search for this, and how we have a place that will hold 120.
Should be a good pre game, and with an open bar and food well worth the money.

Admin reacted to djcuse in March 17th UPDATE: Costa Rica Pregame
I think EJsens1 comment about "$50 something" was referring to the price of a covid test and not pregame prices
Either way, looking forward to the gathering next Thursday afternoon!
If anyone is interested in finding a pre-pregame spot on Thursday to watch the UEFA WCQ Playoff games (1:45pm local kickoff), I'll be hunting down a spot when I touchdown in CR on Tuesday
