This is 100% inexcusable!

The game of football is no longer just an American thing, there are loads of countries nowadays that have national teams for the sport, showing how popular pigskin has become. In fact, they even have youth tournaments in international play, like the U20 World Championships, for example. Nations all around the world are currently trying to lock up a qualifying spot for the event.

And our country, the United States of America, is one of them. (RELATED: Las Vegas Raiders Introduce An Epic Way To Tailgate, But It’s Reportedly Going To Cost You Some Serious Coin)

You’d think that we’d be able to roll through a scenario like this with how big the NFL and college football is here, but uhh … I’ve got some news for you. We LOST. To JAPAN. I’m not kidding you, we actually lost a game of American football to Japan, doing so Wednesday. And we didn’t just lose, we got our asses kicked.

We lost, 41-20. It was so bad that we were down 20-0 after the first quarter. Japan slaughtered us the whole way through the game.

In other words, it was F**KING EMBARRASSING!

I don’t even get how this happens.

Or maybe I do, we are the same country that’s collectively obsessed with a chick who likes to “hawk tuah.”

We truly are a nation of idiots, and now here we are losing to Japan in football as a result — weak.
