For the life of me, I cannot decide if England is either “Andre the Giant” or “the Ultimate Warrior.” On the one hand, the shared language and culture parallels the eery kinetic bond between Hulk and the Warrior. However, on the other hand, some of the subtly condescending remarks bring to mind the disrespectful Giant. I am not attributing these perceptions to all English fans by any measure and definitely concede a huge kernel of truth in terms of competitive inequality.

But still, I want Dempsey to tear off his shirt. Or at least flex a python. Both would probably be too much to ask. Or would it?
