Its amazing how Nigerians try to justify there transgressions by saying "we are not the only ones that are doing it" as if that sort of absolves them of there sins. TWO WRONGS DON'T MAKE A RIGHT!!!! Wrong is wrong and don't get mad when people point it out.

I agree with the man.

Well we know the answer to that now.

Everybody watch out!!!! Ze Germans are kommen!

elampiro:

His studs were not up. He was trying to control the ball from the air down. It was Abeloa who even ran into him to prevent a counter attack. The referee got it wrong.

I agree with you but rules are rules and the rules talk about the penalties for using excessive force.

You Manchester United fans complaining about Nani's red card should learn about the laws of the game. His studs were up and even if it didn't look malicious, it was still dangerous.

WOW!!!!! WE TRADED JAMES HARDEN?? OH BOY, HOW DO WE CONTEND FOR A CHAMPIONSHIP THIS YEAR?

WOW!!!! THE MAN WHO SINGLE HANDEDLY DESTROYED NIGERIA GETS A MILLITARY BURIAL?? Nigeria never ceases to amaze one. This man should have been hanged for mutiny and treason yet he was given a millitary burial. Na wa o.

pufectskin: Let's stop kidding ourselves; nigerian culture is over hyped! We diasporans like to think we morally better off or our culture is sooo much better dan dat of Americans. If we have such a great culture, why isn't it reflected in our society? Why is Nigeria sooo corrupt? Why do we leave 80% of our society in abject poverty? Why are our leaders; even just regular citizens sooo corrupt? I just got back to Nigeria barely less than a year and been scammed/duped by my best childhood friend (she doesn't pick my calls or returns my BB msgs anymore cos she is ashamed; dis is a girl from a notable family for dat matter). I am sorry to say if u r a diasporan, u really need to come home to see dat we really hv no values in this society anymore. Girls use their bodies to get high marks in unis, even d married girls r on parole, ppl marry for d wrong reasons, d private schools cost as much as american schools but d standard is about 60% close to wat u get in d US, d kids only respect ppl with a lil money, actually every1 here respect only ppl with a lil change; bottomline is I don't know what Nigerian values r...
Americans have a sense of who they are and where they want to be...we know American ideals of Dignity, self respect, hard work, innovation, entrepreneurship, human rights and equal opportunity for all. What are Nigerian ideals? Do we have any? Or are we just fantasizing about family/villages raising kids? How many little kids in Nigeria have d level of advanced thinking an average 5yr old american has? How come we glorify scammers/get rich quick no matter d means men here in Nigeria? We call d scammed maga (I wasn't even greedy when I got scammed...long story for another day).
As I said b4, I have been here less than a year, and I hv concluded dat dis is not d Nigeria I used to know; frankly this is not d type of society where I would love to raise a kid. I want my kids to be exposed to science, innovation, diverse cultures; I want them to know what real love is..., I want them to learn to love ppl for who they are and learn to stand up for what is right...dats not very possible here.
D orientation here is of very low quality. No surprise we r where we r.

EXCELLENT!!!!! NOTHING MORE NEEDS TO BE SAID.

chai! naija people una funny o.

I only eat out by myself. Its very, very, very RARE that i eat with someone.

omo, my school got clobbered. I guess this is going to be a rebuilding season.

Famous my foot! This is just a copy cat version of craig Mack "brand new flavour in the ear" from the early 90's. see below

There are still some old skool peeps on NL keeping it real u know

Guy, you are not the only old school guy here o.

comechop: See FAKE HAIR and fake contacts oooo!

why do nigerian songs always gotta have the exact same beat??

shebi, all naija songs seem to have the same beat. They have been doing this for years.

WHY ARE NAIJA PEOPLE SO OBSESSED WITH MARRIAGE?? BOY, EVEN THE BOYS TOO ARE SO OBSESSED WITH WEDDINGS JUST LIKE THE GIRLS.

I mean how could someone be dreaming of a wedding after the Irish lost a football game

St.Funmi:

Who wants an igbo girl when he is a dollar millionaire?  Natashas and  Auroras are the only women befitting his status now

hahahahhahahahahha

On a serious note, what kind of thread is this?? the overlooked black women's thread for venting? This guy just hit pay dirt and instead of people being happy for him or discussing if the contract was worth and how much cap space it would afford Oakland, people are here talking about his future dating partners. Unbelievable! Reading some of the comments here just make me ashamed to be associated with naija women here. Very, very racist, poisonous, vitriolic, and evil comments. Goodness, does humanity have any hope?

The cowboys biggest problem last year was there secondary and they went out and instantly upgraded by getting Morris Claiborne through the draft.

I am mostly a college football fan who seems to only follow the NFL during the end of the college football season or the beginning of the playoffs but there are a lot intriguing subplots in the NFL this year like Matt Sanchise and Tebow, RGIII or Andrew Luck and how Peyton Manning would do in the NFL this season and i am especially keen on the latter as i am a Manning fan.

buchibabe:


Where did dis mda bleeping blockhead come out from? Did u read d topic well at all?abi na my body u wan practise macho? Is it nt weird to see pple chewing sticks nt toothpick o,in a local manner in publc places?abeg park ur kabukabu well jor

Can't you come up with a reasonable coherent comment to defend your stance than resorting to childish remarks? Gosh, its like every time one comes to this thread, it seems one's IQ just reduces by several points. Goodness gracious.

Naija people and marriage sha!

Chai, na wa o.

DUMB, DUMB silly ARTICLE. WHAT A USELESS TRIPE. Its amazing that its usually those in the 3rd world countries who would gobble this nonsense up.

Excellent post.

donjohano: Some interesting male reactions to this thread. These same guys diss unattractive girls on an hourly basis at work, at college, etc, now they're complaining like a bunch of little schoolboys because the ladies find them too short/fat/hairyplain ugly. If you can't take it, don't dish it out fellas. Now you know what it's like to be assessed on your physical features alone!

Men truly are the vainer sex.

I await the backlash. Bring it on.

GBAM!!!!!!!!!!

Ope o. Thank God for football season. Its about time. Goodness!!!!! what a testy summer this has been without any sports i like (i hate the olympics).

mruknaijaboy:
what do you mean they call us big nigerian? i dont understand that one, can you explain that one to me bros?

People assume that Naija people are really big in stature.

buchibabe: 1.Chewing chewing stick
2.Carryin a baby on d back(south east,london)
3.Shouting "iya basira so wa pa?"Across d road(peckham,london
4.Sighting dia loud geles sitting on dia heads on sunday mornings n obstructin oda pples view in a bus

Wow!! are you so insecure about your culture that you put it down? What is wrong with someone being comfortable in their skin. Gosh, you Nigerians are so fake.

What?? you beat a girl and you are not ashamed to come out here and say it?? My goodness! what is wrong with Naija men self? na wa o.

acidtalk: i believe you cant just depict a Nigerian by mere looking at them.

Really?? i can and a lot of other naija people over here can.

wasn't this on yahoo years ago?
