World Cup: Should U.S. team wear “BP sucks” shirts vs. England?
by Ashley Braun.
Since the U.S. and Britain are totally BFF’s and the British Petroleum oil spill is definitely not a sore point between the two nations, we’re happy to see these tender feelings of friendship manifested in the international sports arena as the U.S. gears up to take on England in the World Cup this Saturday.
Especially touching is film director Spike Lee’s suggestion that the U.S. soccer team sport undershirts reading “BP sucks” under their jerseys and flash them when they score on England. Such delightful displays of fraternity and sportsmanship, no?
