Who here was a ****? There was a mild argument in the Q&A thread about map classifications, but that was blown out of proportion when people
not on the USA team started making comments stating that the US should be happy we're even allowed into the tournament, and how we shouldn't be here at all. That's flame-baiting and rude, but now the US is a bunch of assholes because some idiot Euros baited us? Good logic, there.
It's nice to know some things never change. At least the Finns gave us gg's and didn't talk ****. Kudos to them.

Here you are acting the same way by saying "Stay classy, Europe" and "You can't put the whole team down due to comments from the few." Europe isn't a ****ing country, it's a continent and the same thing applies here, you can't treat individuals as a whole country or a continent in this case. Such a ****ing double moral.
You're right, it isn't a country, and it's still not right to attribute characteristics to an entire country based on the actions of a few, but guess what? That has already happened in this tournament, and it was started by Europeans. You can't set the morality standard low for yourself and high for others. There's nothing wrong with friendly jests in a tournament. If you've ever been involved in any sort of team activity, you know it happens and you know it's just to build excitement & confidence. There was no general consensus of hate from the US team, so why is there general consensus of hate
for the US team, and why do you act like it's an injustice when the team under fire lashes back?
Also, illiterates. OP says if you're here to talk ****, don't post. L2read.
