Today, I met someone through a friend and was having a nice talk with him this morning when I realized that he was Dutch (actually Dutch, from the Netherlands, not an American of Dutch descent). I immediately flipped the fuck out and proceeded to tell him about how much I love Johan Cruyff and how he has been my hero for I don't know how long. I even attempted to use any Dutch phrase (even Cruyffisms) that I've picked up along the way. The guy was really taken aback, but charmed in a weird way.
And then I realized that I post on TL.net and there are tons of Dutch posters and the founding members of TL were Dutch. So, when all of this came together, I thought I would notify all Dutch people on TeamLiquid and let them know:
I love you because you gave me Cruyff (and TL).
This is all. Good day, my friends. Ik how van ye.

I like dutch weed and TL. Thank you.
|

Nederland Fighting
Wasn't TL founded by us Dutchies ? also: We gave you Ret, and tons of old skool SC gosus
edit: Nvm im stupid for not reading your entire post, and already knew the answer myself hehe.

Haha. It is written "ik hou van je" btw, although the way you write it approximates the pronunciation pretty well, so maybe you wrote it like that on purpose.

|
So do you love the neo-Cruyff too?
|
We are known for Cruyff, weed and the red light district.
Being dutchmen, we can be proud of all ;P

No one will ever be as handsome as Cruyff. Though as far as Croatian footballers go, I like Niko Kranjcar the most.

Yeah Bergcamp, Edgar Davids, Van Nistelrooy, Van Basten... etc. There are so many great great footballers from the Netherlands!

I personally would do unspeakable things to Edwin Van Der Saar.

Edgar Davids was born in Suriname, just like me. But my parents are German, not Dutch.
But Cruyff is better than all of them. I remember reading a story about a game where Ajax was playing a Greek club (in Greece) and the referee kept giving preferential treatment to the Greeks, so every time Cruyff landed on the ball, he would kick into the stands on purpose. Hero.
