Default Sanchez flusters me a bit...

Why does Mark Sanchez have a Mexican flag mouth guard??? Hell his dad was even in the US army.

I mean he was born in the states, He was educated in the states, He played football at a US college, Why the hell should he be representing the mexican flag???

It just seems disrespectful to me. Maybe he is just a big Mexico soccer fan??

I find it odd, but not disrespectful..He would probably get raped and beheaded if he ever went south of the border though.

Heritage: Something that is passed down from preceding generations.
Therefore it doesnt matter where he grew up or went to school.

Heritage: way to much emphasis put on this in society.

I've always thought its been weird to be so out going and prideful about something you have no control over. Now being appreciative of parents or ancestors sure, but I've always done such things in a quiet and subdued manner. I don't need to wear flag tshirts and other crap to show my family I love, respect, and appreciate them.

Pride can be, and usually is a bad thing.

P.S. my joke was to make him seem like a poser. I know what heritage is.

Yeah I hear ya and I have the most respect for our troops. I am not hating on him for it it just doesn't make much since other than maybe its a good PR stunt for him to get more people to like him. I mean the guy is as american as they come.
