The near 35,000 spectators, mostly Koreans, cheered wildly with every move the Mexican side made and booed as hard as they could whenever the United States got near goal.

hmmmmmmm......

South Korea has had a burr under their saddle ever since the South Korean short track skater was disqualified in the 2002 Olympics.

Hmmmmm...wonder if these same people would boo if the USA ended its 50+ years of their defense. The defense conducted with many sacrifices of Ameican citizens. The defense that prevented North Korea from overrunning their Southern counterparts decades ago. The defense that enabled their booing possible.

Longer than that. I've been noticing this trend in South Korean sports culture since Boom-Boom Mancini KO'd (I mean the BIG KO) Duc Ku Kim about twenty years ago.

Not that it bothers me a great deal, but I'm getting the impression they really don't like us much over there.

After the way Roy Jones Jr. beat the hell out of that guy and got screwed in Seoul, they really shouldn't whine all that much.
