Damn right people are stupid in the U.S. Have you been watching the Olympics? During all the matches, a graphic will occasionally come onscreen that says "Football Men" or "Football Women". So, do the announcers think we turn away from the TV screen when this is posted? Or maybe we're all illiterate and can't see on olympics.com that it says "football". How does the American media think that another sport, with 10% the amount of fans that football has, deserves the name more? I can't even watch the other sport anymore 'cos it's 90% commercials.
F the American media, they're stupid. Our sport is football and the media can just go on thinking it's not like a bunch of idiots, who cares about them.
