Meb is my hero. Did you see him point to his jersey? Proud of it. No. Damn proud of it. No. He pointed to it more than once to get the crowd going. We were cheering for the man in our house. We already knew how he did, but we could not control our jubiliation. He even crossed himself more than once. The man is a Christian. He was so proud to represent America. It was good to see a person who came here from another country, became an American citizen, and repped for us, instead of some guy from some other country come here, use us, and then go win for his other country.
Meb is the real deal. Comes here and wants to become an American. Sure, he is real good at what he does. But, he wants to do what he is good at for America. He becomes a citizen and does it for us. He is even proud of his country. Hell Yeah!
Do you know any libs that like to tell you how the rest of the world hates us? We all know these types. They listen to some mainstream government controlled media, and they get brainwashed into thinking that everyone, everywhere hates us. Yeah right. These are the same people who like to tell us all how we should work to better our country, mostly by paying huge taxes, that they sure as hell are not going to. The same poets, who frequent coffee houses, and like to explain, while wearing their cardigans and sounding quite intellectual, that all of us NASCAR spectators, are nothing but a bunch of hillbillies. They, the elite, even though we can run circles around them in any kind of brain game, except name that newspaper columnist, simply have no clue. They listen to Pearl Jam and Green Day tell us how bad our country is. How every single person from every country in the world hates us. Victims of the public school system I guess. Maybe they should listen to Brooks and Dunn sing "Only in America".
Who the heck would want to be an American? Meb Keflizighi. I love the guy.
How cool of a story is this. Proud to be an American....FOR SURE!
