I’d be angry too. Dude went from looking like he could be a member of Aventura to a middle aged Indian man in six years.

Going to my first match ever today, AC Milan vs Manchester United. This year’s World Cup made me a fan.

Get rid of that clown Ventura, and we play the most entertaining football we’ve played all year. Played well enough to win, but I’m happy with the draw.

The Tite deal is official. For his sake I hope he delivers at the Copa America next year. A lot of fans and media are just waiting to tear him a part.

The correct move, the FA deserves props.

Players like G. Jesus, Ronaldinho, Marcelo etc get classified as "Pardo"

Who told you this... all these people "get classified" as Black and would tell you they're Black. As for the "one-drop rule" that would be if someone like Alisson was getting told he's Black because of one Black ancestor, which does not happen like you said. But the people you mentioned look Black and are seen as such.

I mean so were American Blacks, but we had our "talented tenth" if you will. There WAS a black intelligentsia and a black high society that came out of the 20's and the Harlem Renaissance. I really need to read up more about Brazil's history its one of the most fascinating places on earth to me and yet I know nothing about it outside of football, City of God and Astrud Gilberto.

There also were associations such as Frente Negra Brasileira or Teatro Experimental do Negro

Most Black American's don't look like Willian, I don't look ANYTHING like Willian. Hell I got a homie that favors Neymar...another that looks EXACTLY like Marcelo, and my boss looks like an old ass Ousmane Dembele African-American's are just as visually diverse as Brazilians...prolly more so to be honest because of our immigrant culture.

The Pardo thing is the trip up..its not appearance really, because literally ALL of those dude woulda been just "black" in the US. Besides Fat Ronaldo...who woulda been called Puerto Rican

If you understand that term is ambiguous and can literally mean anything and the narrative of race being extremely touchy/complicated functioning as a continuation of the racial democracy myth used to suppress Black activism you stop tripping over these things.
