    But we really don't have any other meaningful colors as a nation. We have a national anthem that isn't a song about our nation but a song about our nation's flag.

    What's funny to me is that when the women wore neon there's a statement somewhere that is synbolized something specific to Canada. I don't see why they would make it a USA thing now

    What about colors from the Gadsen flag as our away kit? I think the American Outlaws fly that at a lot of games.

    Found the Nike quote. It was in relation to the blue on their cleats and not the yellow. So I stand corrected there...

    it was tongue in cheek, in regards to the black/navy and electric yellow colors being chosen. I was pointing out the absurdity that if that kit is real, Nike didn't select those colors at random but conducted focus groups and other market research. obviously it was business decision as to why Nike went with 2 colors which have no affiliation with the USA on any level.

    Not sure if they'll actually give up an assist, but Zelalem has gotten a lot of time on the ball for a Rangers side that has spent nearly the entire first half in possession. He's got an assist and a hockey assist. I'd forgotten how calmly he plays on the ball.

    Think it looks cool and don't really care about the colors so much as the emblem

    Just about every country is red, white, and blue.

    Just got an email from AO for the US mexico game at the rose bowl. Supporters section tickets are $106 each. I seem to remember every other time I've gotten supporters section tickets them being like $35. Still going to go, but jumped out at me as much more than i expected.
