    but speaking of jason taylor...... he killed me in dancing with the stars.

    did he and big tuna make up yet?
    I think he's playing days in Miami are done, they will look to trade very soon. Look for him to be a Packer this year.

      It just sounds very odd to me, because in Europe nobody ever refers to anyone as European. I've never been in the states where somebody has asked where I'm from I've ever said "Oh I'm from Europe" eh? what?

      Yet if an American had been on a trip to Spain, Italy or France....it's not "Oh I've been on a trip to France" it's "I've been on a trip to Europe".

      Europe isn't a country guys, yes it's a continent the same as South America and the distinction between countries is very bold, we're not "altogether" and never ever ever collectively been regarded "as one" as you've probably been taught in geography class.
      We did have 2 world wars you know....

      The distinction between nationality of boxers between the likes of Kessler, Calzaghe and Abraham is very much far between in terms of language, culture etc as with the same difference between Floyd Mayweather, Cotto and Manny.

      So please refrain from using "Euro Bum" because to me and a lot of others it just doesn't make sense.

      "Welsh bum", "Danish bum", "French bum", "English bum" sound a lot more appropriate.

      Thank you.

      It's not that some of us don't know the difference. It's that you don't matter and we don't care enough to differentiate. Sorry.

      No one gives a **** about the difference between a Northern and Southern American where you come from either.

              I love this thread. There's about 4 conversations going on, fat yanks, limey sports and mortgages. What a mix.

                      the pizza , the hot dogs , the bears......... you don't need anything else.

                      my boss was a big packer guy. every time we played the cheeseheads the last few years i used to stand in front of his office and scream , "make it stop! make it stop! make it stop!" imitating when F4G 4 would get hit by our linemen and backers...... it was funny until last year.

                      i can't help but root for grossman though. he just plays with our emotions. great one game , crappy the next , okay after that and back to crappy again.

                      did we get a back to replace our bust 1st round pick yet? haven't heard anything.
