U.S. to face Iran wrestling team in Los Angeles

[soniq]

the khorshid in the shir o khorshid flags can burn your eyes if you look into it even on the tv, *****es go blind

[KC McElroy]

lmao, the game was cancelled because 10000 lion and sun flags were sold for this game.

I heard the same.

[KC McElroy]

Our wrestlers are patriotic people, they would never act in a way to bring shame on Iran. Also they travelled more then hundred times outside Iran so take your propaganda elsewhere. Btw, sport is one of things which all iranians care about, to stage a political protest and ruin that event is just pathetic, especially when that event is meant to seperate sports from politics.

So you agree we should play Israel in sports?

[KC McElroy]

stop bullshitting about country problems..................while living in la with luxus houses and cars you can help poor ppl in iran instead of talking shit like " its for my country its above sports we have to go to streets" man **** off sports is most important who gives a**** about somehalf naked iranian sluts going to streets

[Salehi]

So you agree we should play Israel in sports?

Yes, why not ?

[_Navid_]

Rubbish, Iranian teams have attended many matches outside Iran where there countless lion and sun flag. That is not the reason.

I will ignore your comment this time but next time don't embarrass yourself.

[euphory]

They said they were going to cheer Iran, but with the REAL iranian flag which is shiro khorshid and not the fake one. They were not going to protest but going to cheer their country, whats wrong with that and trust me this was very political move by iran, but glad they couldn't put their shitty flag up in la

[Salehi]

***ye kam adab dashte bash aziz...***

[KC McElroy]

Yes, why not ?

So we are both in agreement that sports and politics should be kept separate especially if it causes sports events/matches to be cancelled.

unfortunately too many political forces in LA iranian crowd, from shahis to all the other stupid old farts on tv who talk a big game but wont do shit in life. These people will never let any kind of IR presence go uninterrupted in LA area. Its their own selfish motives and not understanding the concept behind this whole thing. The whole point was for people to enjoy this sport and help bringing it back to life. Not ruin it with political stuff. i hate IR just as much, but im disappointed in not being able to see our most beloved sport in real life for once. The sad part about this is those who went to politicize this event, arent even fans or ever watch the damn sport! so they wanna ruin it for everyone cuz its the closest chance they had to stick it to IR. Thank U jerks!

[Go_Daei]

you can't categorize all in the 'jerk' categroy.. what if someone (from those LA pershians) lost all his life's asset, or a friend or a relative to I.R.'s looters or for the sake of Iran (in their view) wanted to be part of the protest; or simply is a shahi and this would be one of their few chances to express their feelings toward I.R. .

I think blame is on whoever who pulled the sportsmen... stop being selfish about 'watching live' events ; send $50 to a charity/zoorkhooneh in Iran to show support.

Your answer.

I didn't follow this news. But interesting to know that the cancellation was related to the flag. IR is afraid of our real flag. Damn, this regime is so tarsoo.

If the cancellation was related to the shir o khorshid flag as reported by BBC, then I do not see why do you insult Iranians of LA. Instead, insult IR and their cronies who link all sport events to politic. I, as Iranian, do not want to carry IR flag. Why should it be problematic for you?

[Asghar Agha]

No way and not true at all. I remember, IR was asking French police not to allow Iranians having shir o khorshid flag while Iran was playing 1998 WC. Many shir o khorshid flags were thrown in the garbage by the French police bc at that time, France tried hard to have good relation with IR.

LA Iranians, where the men encourage the women to be sluts and the women encourage the men to be gays hehe

Do you realize that you insulted half of most of our families? They are not gay neither sluts. They are humble people working hard to have a good life. They are apolitical. Just bc a ****ing idiotic sport event was cancelled, you then insulted all of them bc you are disappointed.
