The British government is run by a bunch of authoritarian prissy tattle-tale wussies who permanently have their panties in a bunch. Bring on the Danes!

Holding a grudge for 214 years is impressive.

Public Health or Homefield Advantage?

To my Danish cousins, its not a grudge but a temporary pause in hostilities. Don't get King Bluetooth mad!

You can take away anything from these Europeans but don’t interfere with their game where they kick a ball around for 3 hours. That gets them really pissed.
