Fans call Simmonds a monkey in Czech Republic after a scrap
 
So, V-12_Turbo-something, tell me more about how smarter Europeans compared to North Americans?

Quote:
Wayne Simmonds and pal Chris Stewart signed with Liberec of the Czech Extraliga last week after a stint in Germany. On Sunday, in his third game with the team, Simmonds and his teammates traveled to Chomutov. After a fight with Miroslav Zálešák in the third period, some Chomutov fans began chanting "opice" toward Simmonds.

"Opice" translates to "monkey" in English.

A North American threw a banana on the ice...Your argument kind of fails.

My argument isn't that Europeans or Czechs or whatever are more stupid than us. It's more to show how the "euros have more culture than North Americans" statement fails, actually.

Is there any video of the fight?

South and eastern Europe are very racist.
North and western Europe are equal and the best place in the world to live if you're an immigrant (especially Germany and Sweden).

Judging by your opening post, yes, you were arguing about intelligence. You didn't mention culture at all in your opening post, either.

Racism and prejudice exists everywhere -- it's human nature. The theme of your thread is stupid. You would have been better off just posting the link and leaving it at that.

Because V12-BiTurbo likes to say that Europeans are smarter and have more culture than Americans (or North Americans).

He does do that, but you don't make yourself look any better.

I feel bad for any player who has to put up with that stuff. I know Wayne has said stuff like this doesn't bother him, but it certainly can't make him feel good. Good luck out there Wayne and stay safe.

He's usually too busy being a badass to give one flying ****.

Fans get into it over there and go way too far, you got to be thick skinned to play almost anywhere overseas in about any sport. Years ago my cousin played soccer for a minor team in Poland and from opposing teams would get death threats and they verbally attacked him over being an American or either having an Irish last name. He thought it was funny until the coaches and players explained to him that some areas they went to the fans didn't mess around and wouldn't let him go out by himself.
