Dont accuse me of that fancy, 100 dollar word jingoism. Im not even American.
It would be impossible, however, not to revel in the victory of team USA! USA! USA! over the little respected, once great, but now pitiful nation that is France. The French, you see, had some pretty high hopes going into this years Olympics. Win a gold medal? I guess. According to Alain Bernard, the French swimming teams goal was, well, Ill let him say it: “The Americans? We will smash them. That's what we came here for.”
Forget that the last time the French smashed anything of significance, an artillery officer from Corsica was running the place. Monsieur Bernard and his fellow countrymen, competing in the 4 x 100 relay, came to China to win. Who cares that the best swimmer on the flat face of the earth swims for America?
Theres only one problem with trash talk. That problem comes when one attempts to cash a cheque ones mouth has written, and one finds ones account overdrawn. Monsieur Bernard, how does America's backhand taste? You see, America does not take trash talk from a nation whos national flag is whatever piece of white clothe is available. America won the 4x100 relay. France came in second. France may as well have come in DFL.
In the immortal words of the Diesel:
France, tell me how my a$$ taste
For that there is the wise phrase: "Don't speak, Do!" and if you can't do, well, better keep quiet.
