I love how the photo is EVERYTHING bad about America all in one place: icky summer clothes, fat ankles, mirrored pseudo-Vuarnet shades, people wearing flag shit, spelling errors and misplaced patriotism. All worn by what appears to be an off-duty Embers management trainee.

That Patriotic Descent picture will show up on all sorts of I Love NFL threads over the next season. It is too perfect for anything dealing with Bill Belichick or the Patriots.

You guys! I can't believe you've fallen for such an obvious piece of image manipulation! "Get A BRAIN! MORANS" and "Go USA" is not what the guy's signs were originally saying, they've been photoshopped. Here's the original, untouched picture:

What do you mean by "the little things"?For a perfect example, just look at one of the greatest teams ever assembled: the 2006 World Champion St. Louis Cardinals. That team had David Eckstein, Yadier Molina, So Taguchi, and Aaron Miles. That's a Jew [sic], a Mexican [sic], a Chinaman [sic], and a regular American. It was a variable [sic] "League of Nations" of doing the little things. They hustled like all get out, they bunted all the time, and they weren't afraid to move the runner over. And most important, they got it done in the clubhouse, by which I mean, they created something I refer to as "a winning atmosphere."
