    thats not even close to the same.

    1. How is Germany in the equation at all?
    2. He didn't go to England instead, he went to Wales
    3. He has given the national team almost 50 games of service and shown his class over the years. He didn't sell himself out on multiple occasions.

    But it isn't. Jimmy isn't running out to play for somebody else.

    But I don't exactly feel he is a traitor as much as he never really gave a damn about Canadian soccer.

    Save the Hargreaves topic for another day...

    It sure as hell has been a tough battle to get results from the CSA.
    I applaud Brennan for speaking out.
    I just pray to God that some change will come.

    If Radzinski retires after these next two games (or even after the Gold Cup), he has some things to say on the way out as well...Onstad too.

    Yeah that's the same situation isn't it if Hargreaves had played 47 times for Canada then he can tell the CSA to take a leap

    yeah, the Hargreaves comparison is shite (like the red bulls).

    he didn't have the balls to wait and someday play for the team in the first place, so he has no credibility. he didn't pay his dues, wait, and then get his chance with Canada.
    for all we know, he could have had English stars in his eyes the whole time, and that was just an excuse. Jimmy has the credibility of someone who has actually played for the team. He has taken that chance. Hargreaves took the easy way out.

    so every young player should be picked? Hargreaves wasn't the guy we know today back then.
    when you're a young guy you wait and bide your time, as many guys have on the Canadian team.

    but if you want to defend traitors, go ahead. shows your own character

    Whoregreaves being compared to Jimmy B makes me sick.

    If by the final game team Canada has no chance, all the player should walk off in protest! That mught get some attention. Not like the CSA can exclude all of them for the next tourney, or can they?

    ^^My character actually would love to see a nationless, borderless world actually. Where people didn't give a shit about things like this, and where they realized that your country is made up, and is just the place your parents decided to have sex.
    But I digress

    It's no different than Brett Hull. Couldn't handle he wasn't picked for the Jr team so he went to the states. Hey if you can get a spot on a national team somewhere eles as an athlete go for it. They still should however stay with there home country.

    lets focus on Jimmy and the CSA, not sell-outs.

    Jimmy B is no sellout. Mitchell is the problem. I hope the players kick him off the plane and leave him in Hondurus.

    CSA and their Mitchell stooge is the problem. Fucking garbages. You cant get anything more out of that lineup? Fuck right off. We SHOULD have beaten Jamaica and Honduras, I am fucking sorry, both of those games and Mitchell blew it and the CSA always sets us up for failure.

    Don't be sorry. Everyone knows we should have won both those games it isn't a secret and I don't think anyone will disagree.

    Jamaica has Jamaican league players. Honduras had players from a team Montreal just beat in Honduras and both goals were scored by an MLS reject! We have MLS stars on our bench some games.

    Not to take this off track, but really... that's a pretty bad statement.

    OH is a traitor in YOUR opinion, and obviously other's as well. You have your reasons, but to base judgement on a person's character due to ONE opinion on ONE player who neither of you personally know... THAT my friend, speaks volumes.
