If you are italian, it doesnt matter where you are born, you are italian through and through. It doesnt change who you are or your background. Also, a player wants to play for the national team he feels close to. Giuseppe Rossi is a first generation american boy here, so its understandable to feel more connected to italian culture and life and the people, than american, like i do. someone like Michael Bradly, who is prolly like 10th generation american, probably feels closer. So give him a break

rossi IS italy national, hes an italian-american who sticks to his italian roots and speaks both languages he could play for u.s nat. but he doesnt (good decision)

[libville]

Ok. 1. Most Americans (or anyone else) whose parents grew up overseas speak a language other than English in the home. After the next generation they tend not to because people usually end up marrying someone who doesn't speak the other language. 2. His GRANDparents moved to the US 45 effin' years ago. His father registered for the draft during the Vietnam War! 3. Instead of playing for his country he decided to play for a country where his nearest relatives are his long deceased great-grandpar

@eastbayj06 he did it mate, he doen't need an american passport..and you LEAVE america too, cause is not your place.

[ForzaAquila]

@dcontrerasm and also because with DR and puerto rico you'd get nowhere admit that's part of the reason XD

[dcontrerasm]

@ForzaAquila I understand your point but disagree that it should be based on blood line. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but Balotelli should play for Ghana because his birth parents are from there? But lets be honest, if one player upholds the value of the country he lives in and was raised in he should be allow to play for that country. If I had to choose between Puerto Rico, USA and Dominican Republic, I'd choose USA because I belong to this culture, and I was born here.

[ForzaAquila]

@dcontrerasm that's my point. birthplace doesn't matter. what matters is the blood. according to franchiz it's the birthplace. balotelli born in italy, rossi born in the us. i'm trying to prove to him that my point is not biased so i say rossi should play for italy because he has italian blood, imo balotelli should play for ghana because that's the blood that runs through him.

[dcontrerasm]

@ForzaAquila Balotelli was born in Italy...
