Author Topic: You Americans won the America's Cup...  (Read 2225 times)

Us New Zealanders almost beat you!

Too bad you guys have deeper pockets than us.

Edit: If you don't know what this is, http://www.americascup.com/

It's basically a boat race, first to 9 points.

What happened was is that Team New Zealand got 8 points, while America had 1. America then started to catch up to us on Friday the 13th of boat race number 13. They won the cup 9-8 today.

Should I feel stupid for not knowing the context of this? Please humor me and tell me a bit more about this yacht race.

Just saying, not all of the people in Blockland Forums are Americans.

Oh really?! I thought every single forumer was American! /sarcasm

This is directed towards Americans.

There's a froyo place called America's Cup.  When I started reading the op I thought "Jeez, is all this competition over a cup o' froyo?"

I'm from New Zealand and I was rooting for Oracle! Time for celebration in another 5 years it'll be held in San Francisco. Horaah

It's cool how the boats go out of the water and practically fly.

How... how could you?!

Throw him in the stocks!

I'm American but I always root for the Kiwi's. New Zealanders are really skilled considering how small their population is.

I was thinking about making a topic about this. Both teams had such an amazing amount of skill. The races were so amazing. I watched every single one. I have to say, how Team Oracle started with a negative 2 score and came back and won was amazing. Personally, if the Kiwi's were in the position of Oracle, I would have been just as happy for them. It takes an amazing amount of effort and team work on both sides. I cant wait to see this in person one day! If none of you watched it,  I suggest you do. It is very exciting!!
