Lool, I know I know, comedy show and all.
I still haven’t finished the show (got two episodes left) but it rub the wrong way how Dani basically bullied Van Damme just because they were playing on different teams during a special occasion.
When characters do something assholely in this show, they usually make up for it and grow as people, but nope. Dani was just being a dick to Van Damme for no reason. And it wasn’t really all bad until he broke his nose intentionally.
Kinda ruined Dani’s character a little for me. When he joined the show, he was supposed to be like the contrast of Roy and Jamie. Super friendly, hyper, motivational.
You know what? It was the dog incident. It must’ve turned his heart cold.
Conversely, I loved it. Absolute CONCACAF moment.
Lots of your matches over there are insane. Normally calm, rational-minded players turn into war-freaks. The latest competitive USA-Mexico game resulted in 4 red cards, 2 for each country.
The November 16, 2021 Canada-Mexico game for WC qualification was quite intense (also the most recent fixture between them). There were 16 fouls for Canada and 21 for Mexico. 5 yellows were produced (both managers were given yellows in the first half for their aggressive nature towards each other and the referees).
Several CONCACAF national teams have a reputation for turning nice, kind players for their clubs into aggressive assholes. In fact, that’s a trend in National Teams in general.
