Guest wrestlingbs Posted December 12, 2003 Report Posted December 12, 2003 I'm surprised nobody pointed this out. During the taped USO annoucement, Bradshaw was talking at the podium. He says something along the line of: 'The US has a great military, the only undefeated one in the world..." Wha??? I know Bradshaw's a super patriot, but even the US government admitted they lost the Vietnam war. And that's still pretty fresh in people's minds. I really don't know what he was thinking. Not a major mistake, but a very odd thing to say.
yankovic fan Posted December 12, 2003 Report Posted December 12, 2003 It actually depends on what stance you take actually. I'd have to go dig my notes out for particulars, but I just took a course on military intervention, and we went into deep discussion on that.
jester Posted December 12, 2003 Report Posted December 12, 2003 "We did not lose that war! It was a tie!" -Otto, A Fish Called Wanda I also question that business about the US military being the "only" undefeated military force in the world. Especially when you consider that in many cases, if your army loses, your country ceases to exist. Bradshaw strikes me as a person who not as intelligent as he thinks he is. And more importantly, a sucky wrestler too.
DerangedHermit Posted December 12, 2003 Report Posted December 12, 2003 Bradshaw strikes me as a person who not as intelligent as he thinks he is. And more importantly, a sucky wrestler too. And maybe a sodomist.
RavishingRickRudo Posted December 12, 2003 Report Posted December 12, 2003 Well SOMEONE had to lose the Civil War.
AndrewTS Posted December 12, 2003 Report Posted December 12, 2003 1812 (Yes, we went to war with Canada, and didn't win), Vietnam, Korea (?--I honestly don't remember what I learned about that one so I could be wrong), and depending on if you count it or not, the Bay of Pigs invasion which was arranged by the U.S. was a huge failure. Methinks this is the wrong folder, though.
RavishingRickRudo Posted December 12, 2003 Report Posted December 12, 2003 Canada, on the other hand, IS undefeated

RavishingRickRudo Posted December 12, 2003 Report Posted December 12, 2003 *Lance Storm gets up infront of Canadian troops* Storm: You guys protect us from all the bad things out there, and it's my honour to present to you these Tim Horton chocolate chip muffins - easy though, there's those sugar crystals on em, might knock a tooth loose, there ya go. We're undefeated in battle, because of guys like you. Not even old man winter could keep the great city of Toronto down because you guys were there to save the day. We're really proud of you three, good job.
LaParkaMarka Posted December 12, 2003 Report Posted December 12, 2003 The US didn't win the war of 1812, but they didn't really lose. Sure, the White House was burned down (by Brits, not Canadians) but it's not like the US surrendered or anything. In the same vein, Canada didn't win or lose that war either.
Highland Posted December 12, 2003 Report Posted December 12, 2003 LaParkaMarka is absolutely correct, but the Canadian patriot in me compels me to celebrate along with Fook and RRR
2GOLD Posted December 12, 2003 Report Posted December 12, 2003 LaParkaMarka is absolutely correct, but the Canadian patriot in me compels me to celebrate along with Fook and RRR Canada has an army? REALLY?
Guest JacK Posted December 12, 2003 Report Posted December 12, 2003 I dunno if Australia's army has ever lost; we have a coupla boats, a few planes; a knife and some guns. It counts damnit! And Bradshaw is REALLY dumb, I mean; there are a hell of a lot of countries . . . with a hell of a lot of armies.
Guest Fook Posted December 12, 2003 Report Posted December 12, 2003 LaParkaMarka is absolutely correct, but the Canadian patriot in me compels me to celebrate along with Fook and RRR Canada has an army? REALLY? Hey, don't mess with us - we've got a tank.
Cran Da Maniac Posted December 12, 2003 Report Posted December 12, 2003 Korea Technically we didnt' lose Korea either. It's been one long cease fire, but no winner has really come of it, or any treaties of any kind.

Guest wrestlingbs Posted December 12, 2003 Report Posted December 12, 2003 According to Canadian Bacon if we ever invaded Canada we'd be mistaken for rowdy tourists.
Slayer Posted December 12, 2003 Report Posted December 12, 2003 1812 (Yes, we went to war with Canada, and didn't win) I see this one get thrown around and perpetuated by American ignorance of Canadian history Canada was not a nation until fifty-five years after the War of 1812 (if you really want to get technical, 170 years after, but that's another issue), so how could we have lost to a nation that didn't even exist? Back in 1812, what is now called Canada was occupied by mostly Brits, some Frenchies, and several displaced natives. No Canadians though. Not to mention Andy Jackson pwned the Brits in New Orleans

Not to mention Andy Jackson pwned the Brits in New Orleans While it's true that "Dominion of Canada" did not come together until 1867, the territories Upper and Lower Canada existed well before this, and predate the war of 1812. And Major-General Sir Isaac Brock browsed, bought, paid for, refinished, repainted, fixed up, and polished AND OWNED General William Hull. Uhmm...somebody remind me. What has this got to do with wrestling again? How did we get on this topic?
Guest ligerbomb03 Posted December 12, 2003 Report Posted December 12, 2003 This is supposed to be a wrestling board, why are you all talking about the fucking military?
Slayer Posted December 12, 2003 Report Posted December 12, 2003 It amuses and amazes me how some people will futility remain devoted to a single topic tangents > you
RavishingRickRudo Posted December 13, 2003 Report Posted December 13, 2003 Um, it's rather simple. Bradshaw: YEEHAW AMURICA IS GRATE! I LUV IT A LOT! I LUV U GUYZ! WE'RE THE BEST! UNDEFEATED MOTHERFUCKERS! Posters: Well, blah blah blah blah blah War of 1812, Canada is undefeated too, blah blah blah.
Lord of The Curry Posted December 13, 2003 Report Posted December 13, 2003 According to Canadian Bacon if we ever invaded Canada we'd be mistaken for rowdy tourists. You'd be discovered in about half a minute. Every single Canadian has the ability to smell a dirty Yankee a kilometre away.

LMFAO That is so true I guess you guys use your Magic Canuck powers. I'm kidding. I love Canada. It's given me beer, great wrestlers from Calgary................................Alberta Canada[oh and Edmonton and Winnepeg], Trish Stratus, Pam Anderson and.......................... BRYAN ADAMS.

Every single Canadian has the ability to smell a dirty Yankee a kilometre away. Given the amount of French & French descendants in Canada, I'd say we Yanks would conquer you in about 3 days. That's right, I made a French joke. What are YOU going to do about it, JMA?!?!?!
Guest cobainwasmurdered Posted December 13, 2003 Report Posted December 13, 2003 LaParkaMarka is absolutely correct, but the Canadian patriot in me compels me to celebrate along with Fook and RRR Canada has an army? REALLY? Canada had the largest armed forces in the world at the outbreak of WW1. The US didn't win the war of 1812, but they didn't really lose. Sure, the White House was burned down (by Brits, not Canadians) but it's not like the US surrendered or anything. In the same vein, Canada didn't win or lose that war either. America invaded, they were repeled, and counter attacked leading to the burning of the white house. I'd call that a victory.
