Football in Medellin

rOoF says on Sep 14, 2008, 10:00:

I know there's an American Sports bar somewhere ( I think Laureles)..... Owned by an American and he puts some games on there.....

Sorry I can't help with the name nor exact location. But I'm sure maybe asking taxi drivers....

What a closed-minded, dumbf--k thing to say. Typical of someone living within boundaries of their own tiny world down here. Get a clue, educate yourself a bit and realize there is more to life than Medallo and "Verde" (who by the way SUCKS!)

By the way, why don't you change your handle? Why would you be a "bobo" and write it in English when you're so damn proud and living in Colombia, stupid.

IloveCindy - The closest place for you is Champions Sports bar on la 80 very close to you. ALL games broadcasted and gringo-owned. Another option is Tiger Paw Hostel in Poblado, albeit further for you and not all games broadcasted but a more relaxed and elegant atmosphere.

vaya al estadio y vea jugar al verde....no seas tan gringo.....estas en colombia bobo

=====================================

It never ceases to amaze me how many Colombians here are so intimidated and fearful of all things gringo. You'd think with an Internet connection and basic English skills they'd be a little more worldly and open minded.

Cheers,
Terry

I really think it is a much smaller number than you assume. There are dinks like this on everyboard in ever culture and they seem to enjoy making fools of themselves. Colombian men and men in general do not behave like this. It shows inner weakness and the only people attracted to them are people with similiar deficits.

You are (of course) correct David. I should have said just a couple of guys when referring to this forum.

I missed all this. Champions sports bar on La80 con 29 - accross the street from La Notaria 29 en barrio Belen Las Palmas. Every cabbie knows Notaria 29. It's on the corner just inside the Hamburguesas del Oeste, 16 TVs, two big screens, food and sports betting (He's got an offshore account).

I was there last week and had a great time. My woman won't let me go this week. I will be there next week! Hope to see you guys and eat chicken fingers and fajitas.

Yeah, but they're a tiny spec next to all the US Americans who are intimidated and fearful of all things hispanic!

Umm, I actually speak English and enjoy several things about US culture (Hollywood, music, etc). Most gringos can't even try listening to music that's not sung in their language!

Dear Simon,

Almost every post you make sounds like it's coming from an intimidated little kid, desperately trying to graduate from the kiddies' table to being allowed to eat with the adults.

Instead of always posting the same mind numbingly predictable rhetoric why don't you try, just once, to enter into a discussion on one of these threads like a rational grownup?

There's some nice people here. You might enjoy yourself.

All the best to you.

Cheers,
Terry

Honestly Simon, why are you so afraid and hateful of gringos?

You speak good English, you live in the US, what's the big deal?

Why all the fake tough talk?

Cheers,
Terry

I love gringos like Brian Andrews. l hate gringos like Lou Dobbs. So as you can see, I do give them a fair shake.

IloveCindy...hate to tell you this,, but if you are here in Medellin or Colombia for that matter it will be blocked. Your out of country ISP address will not allow broadcast, and you will be referred to purchasing the SuperPass. Better make other plans before you figure this out for yourself at the last minute!
