I have no idea.

This is VJ. You're not supposed to admit that. You're supposed to make an answer up and then defend it till the very end.

I have no context for it. Usually racism in football involves someone making monkey noises at black players or throwing bananas onto the pitch.

It's obviously controversial to German fans. So maybe it is. Like I say, I have no idea.

See no issue having a go at the Argies.

[mota bhai 2,675]

They did lose, after all.

[Mr. Big Dog 10,747]

So you don't think they're comparable?

No, I don't.

This is just trash talking because you beat somebody. Gaucho is similar to cowboy and is more regional than racial, as far as I know. It is possible to criticize or even mock someone without it being racist, even if that person is of another race.

If you believe Schweinsteiger, he said that the reporter was very nice looking and that he's very happy. The reality is a bit different. She asked him about the Golden Boot which he missed winning by just one goal. He told her that he is not interested in that sh!t. He told her, We're the champions, we've got the trophy. And then he told her that she can take that golden boot and shove it where the sun doen't shine.

He wasn't serious, however. It's just how he rolls.

Thomas Mueller (the German player Schweinsteiger commented on), was acutally talking Bavarian and this translates different into English than High German. But it basicly it came down to he "wasn't interested and doesn't care about the subject since they won the world cup".

You brought it down in two sentences. Good job.

Are you trying to give me a lesson in German? I know what he said and I know what it means.

That's where the difference is: Mueller spoke Bavarian, not German.

I know, to the German ear it may sound a bit harsher than to the Bavarian ear. But the essence of the message is all the same. Couple of my dad's siblings lived in Bavaria since early childhood. This Saupreiß is quite familiar with the Bavarian dialect.

The Gauchos don't seem to take any prisoners either. Here you have them celebrating Neymar's broken back after they won against Belgium.

If you didn't think the little Nazis did anything bad here, I'm not sure why you had to go digging for dirt on the Gauchos.
