This poll happened to be gracing the Sportsnet website. It was too good not to post here.
And that's exactly why Branko won't be named Croatia's best, either.I can't believe people are voting for Hargreaves. Remember he's the kid who dissowned his country to go play for the his dad's birth nation. This is the same country that coached him from a kid to be the player he is now. Gratitude.
Take tennis players Mary Pierce and Greg Rusedski... They are still Canadians to me... Case in point... I still cheer for them as a sentimental favourite becasue of the "Canadian Connection", besides Mary has a great arse!!! What about Gold medal winning Olympians Lennox Lewis, Owen Nolan and Daniel Agalia (sp) (who were not even born here)!!! Don't we cheer them on???Let's face it. There have been many top athletes who immigrated to Canada and who chose to take out Canadian citizenship and perform in Canadian colours internationally. To criticize someone trying to do it the other way is unfair.
To kill Guinness' point. Two words for you... Brett Hull. Another two...fcuking cnut.What about Gold medal winning Olympians Lennox Lewis, Owen Nolan and Daniel Agalia (sp) (who were not even born here)!!! Don't we cheer them on???
Lets face it, we live in a multicultural society and our bloodlines are all over the shop... Love them or hate them, Canadians born here or not, chose to represent us or not are all still CANADIAN!!!
And how many have won a Champions League title? 1?Out of all those players listed, how many actually played in a World Cup? 2?
And you say you're from Surrey.The girls are too young yet to judge.
