CNN's Piers Morgan is apparently trying to get another petition started to have him deported.

You know, that offends me more than his other statements. Just reflects his anti-Americanism.

Oh Piers... I’m sure you’ll be touting that Rugby sport of yours as being soo tough. And while it is tough. The speeds that these nfl players play at is far greater than any rugby team could imagine. Take the pads off the players in one NFL game and you will have 5+ fatalities.

Hey, Piers... you and the horse you rode in on! If anyone has ever doubted that all the flack on football being dangerous/violent/anti-female/fill in the blank isn’t a direct hit on a sport that is truly AMERICAN vs global.. this is the perfect example.

Even a broken clock is right twice a day (and I'm a Ravens fan).

"World Championships" need to be decided in competitions played by All-Star teams ("Dream Teams") from different nations, not by a league championship for club teams from cities all in one country.

Besides, it’s called the Super Bowl, not the World Series. The prick should hold off his comments til baseball season to make any sense. There is not official title of “World Champs” in football. He’s an idiot.

This guy has that European attitude that he’s more sophisticated, enlightened, and intelligent than those backwards, Bible thumping Americans. Leftists also have that attitude towards conservative Americans. Piers is a leftist European given a platform to spew his attitude every night on a major news network. I say we let a Piers find a team of people in Europe who he thinks can beat the Ravens and pit them up against each other. I’d watch.

You are right. In a theoretical sense, American Super Bowl winners are not “world” champions. But there is a time and a place for everything and Morgan saying this now is like telling a bride she looks fat on her wedding day. It may be true but you don’t say it.

By this standard you couldn’t have a “World Champion” unless every single country competed and if only Monaco (Size: 0.8 sq. mi. Population: 35,657) refused to enter then you’re screwed.

World’s largest polar bear. Wait, not possible, because polar bears don’t live everywhere on earth, yet... there aren’t any larger polar bears in Jamaica are there?

Remember how for decades the leftists told us that we have to respect other cultures, beliefs and ways of life? That we were “ugly Americans” for going to other countries and looking down on them? Seems they certrainly feel free to bash us every chance they get. Perhaps we should start calling Piers “an ugly Englishman”?
