It's not Hugo's fault nor the team's, it's the weather, the field, the media.... :)

Let's agree to disagree ;)

c'mon dude, it's not hating, it's just being realistic. You guys create haters of people because of all your constant bitching and claims of being one of the top 5 teams in the world. Wake up my man, there's a lot of shit that has to happen before Mexico is considered the elite team you guys swear you are. No world cup title yet ( professional - I know the kids already got one ) and Gold Cups only take you half way.
So, what is the excuse for losing with your A+ team against USA -Gold Cup?

(Jun 29 07, 12:24)thanks. that's exactly the problem. People think we think we are a top 10 team and shit like that but we don't.
We don't think we are in the top 5. I've never met a Mexican that thinks we deserve to be in the top 10. The mexicans in the us tend to be a bit more arrogant on this subject due to their constant battle between the us and Mexico. but in Mexico we don't think that way. Mexicans in mexico tend to rate both the mexican and american team in around the 20th place, and we think both of our teams are strong enough to be a complete headache for any team now. The problem here aside from this, is that instead of saying that many inexperienced Mexicans players did good against Brazil, the Brazilians sucked ass or that they were a bad team, and not giving much credit to the Mexican team.
if the US or Peru some other team had beaten Brazil I'd give them credit for winning because after all we'd be talking about beating a group of professional players that have to be very good to be in a national team.

(Jun 29 07, 13:16)Copa America or the world cup?
Since Mexico started competing in Copa America about maybe 15 years ago (if I am not mistaken) Mexico has been in the finals twice, and another 2 times Mexico has reached the semifinals winning the game for the 3rd place.
In World cups Mexico has reached the quarterfinals twice and has been in the handful of teams that constantly advances out of the group stages.

Vector, I acutally think brazil played really bad, nothing against mexico,
you do remember how many world cups they won, right?
so is it a crime to think brazil coulded done a lot better?

(Jul 2 07, 19:09)Yeah, but nothing is being said about the good things that some mexican players did.
Besides, We could also say that mexico made brazil look bad, can't we? Sure they sucked ass, but so did Mexico, and still the inexperienced players that played for mexico that play in mexico and not europe, did better than them.What about the world cups they have won? That is kinda pointless. THis players didn't win them. Old and retired players did. It doesn't say anything about the performance of a team on a tournament or game. So can we say Uruguay is a world power in football? nah!! And they won the world cup twice.
A lot of the problem when we talk about a nation that has a history of good football and loses against another team, people say the soccer power simply didn't play good. And it's kinda getting old.
In the last 10 games between mexico and brazil, Mexico has won 7 of them, and the other 3 left are 2 ties and one loss. And this including players like ronaldinho, adriano, kaka, dida, robert carlos, etc... And still people say brazil plays bad when they lose and don't say the other team beat them and did good.I have an amazing amount of respect for Brazil. and other NTs like the Netherlands and Germany, that I enjoy to watch, and Brazil in particular that can play beautiful soccer.
But things have changed. Teams that were always a headache are now good opposition and the laughingstock of teams like US, are now becoming a headache for bigger teams.
More than anything is not that those great football nations play bad when they lose, it's that the other nations are now contenders and can shut them down.

Exactly my point :)
If this is brazil's new team, I think they won't be winning the next world cup. was very disapointing to me.
