Taylor twellman national team career was laughable. Beasley should be that analyst or a Mia Hamm. Twellman need to be on extra time radio with Bobby warshaw. He a white boy with connects. Stop giving him a platform.


quote:

That’s fine. My problem is this. I’m not Messi or the best to ever do it. For USA or anyone. But Im sure as hell not a failure! I thrived in a game where it’s hard for kids that look like me to thrive in the US. We don’t promote the positive side. Only negative.


quote:

People like Twellman telling millions I’m this I’m that. Didn’t live up to this or that. I’m a hero Taylor to young black kings that want to play soccer. Kids in Haiti and Caribbean. You don’t define success for me. You weren’t half of me. No more free takes.


quote:

So what. Being a black player for the us national team is challenging. It’s always in spite of me not because of me. Who’s talking to the millions? Twellman. Not letting the bullshite slide no more. A lot of black kids want to play because they saw me. Kids in haiti too.


Jozy’s Twitter

I’m not really even sure what comments Taylor made that has Jozy melting like a girl. As far as I can tell he’s mad about Twellman coming out and criticizing the US failure to qualify for the olympics? Altidore definitely comes off looking like a bitch, and can’t take any criticism, even indirectly.

Some dude absolutely buried Jozy in the replies

How fast would Twellman be fired if he called Jozy a black boy?

It sounds funny, but he did play in the 2019 Gold Cup and likely would have had more caps since 2017 if it wasn't due to, well, injuries.

I think Jozy just air mailed another shot over goal with no one around him. This is a weird melt, he had some pent up Twellman anger that just had to get out.

Just such a weird attack from Jozy and it really feels like he woke up today and decided to try to ignite a soccer race war.

He failed.

Must suck to know you are completely irrelevant now in US soccer, and won’t have half the career as a broadcaster as Twellman.

Also Jozy, did you lead the USMNT toRussia in 2018? No you didn’t so yes you are a failure.

Someone else said he’s only a hero to Panamanians who never thought they’d see their country in the World Cup


Look, it’s awesome that Jozy has been an inspiration for young black people playing soccer, especially in the US. I think Twellman is slightly overreacting to us not qualifying for the Olympics. All that said, Twellman loves the US and has the attitude that I want our National team and program directors to have. I love that he gets upset about us not doing everything in our power to qualify for the Olympics because he wants that for us. I wish Jozy had that same attitude.

Jozy is out of line here. If we all want equality we should wonder what someone saying “black boy” to him would do. Probably cancel them completely.

Why did he have to make it racial?

I noticed a lot of far left people in that Twitter thread responding simply with “delete” or “delete this” when another person responded with this (rational) take.

they legit think Jozy gets a free pass for racism because of his skin colour.
