the hispanic culture is different, just here in south central texas there are-

Mexicans, aka s- who cant speak english worth and slowly drive old loud pickups with every body accessory possible and like to dress up like gay cowboys

hispanics americans who think its cool to wear hecho en mexico shirts and sport the mexican flag because theyre "mexican" and try to act like vatos locos and wear "Loc" brand "locs". ususally some family members speak real spanish

There are tejanos who understand and respect what it means to be american and tejano but still like gritos and the intoxicating baselines that orginated in texas, usually some family speak spanish or texmex and they scoff Mexicans like no other

and then theres the rest that have been in texas since 1836, nobody speaks spanish and for all they figure, theyre white and could give a about culture or mexico

and then there are california mexicans who call themselves "Latino" for a reason nobody can explain. nobody knows about them besides the stereotypical we see in the movies

You're Mexican? I always thought you were white.

Nobody calls themselves chicano's out here. I think ya'll say that cause there's nothing but other Mexican's or Tejano's like you say. In California, there are a lot of Guatemalteco's and Salvi's. Some places, they even outnumber Mexicans.

There is one person bragging in this thread.

Yet you came in and responded to my response to his bragging.

And I did neither. If you got hurt, then it was a misinterpretation of my comments.

I think more of an accurate tennis corollary would be if people rooted against the US Davis Cup team. Individual professionals are different in that they are not part of a national team or in that compe ion for the sole purpose of representing their country.

FWIW, I rooted for Rod because he was an American but I wasn't "against" Federer because he is a great champion and a class act.

Your comment wasn't hurtful per sé... I was simply describing the general antagonism that is directed towards those that root for the Mexican National Soccer team, while living in the U.S.... because somehow everyone automatically expects all U.S. residents to blindly root for the U.S. team (one which ironically has been/is represented by many nationalized players)... when there may be valid reasons for choosing not to do so...

BTW I was born in Mexico... but have lived in the U.S. since the age of 5. I was granted citizenship at the age of 14, since my mother was born in the USA. I am fortunate to have family on both sides of the border, and can enjoy the best of both worlds... I'm also pretty familiar with the histories of both nations.

mookie forgot a category... Culturally diverse people who are fluent in both English and Spanish, and who detest the use of broken-down language.

Futhermore, I feel pity for hispanics who deal with their 'inferiority complex' issues by lashing out against Mexicans... I see it far too often...
