The irony in calling him ignorant when you were the ignorant one
Edit: I realised this was an apology vid now regret my comment.
Well, he manned up and apologized.
@@kev_naughtythank you only in American can you admit your wrong and still get dumped on.
Didn’t he just apologize? Or that means nothing to you?
😂😂😂"he came across as flagrantly ignorant". The mind boggles
@@siphiwongqeza3399 I mean.. World champion of what was a diss he could have just started his opinion without the hook
Even the UEFA Champions League winner, the best of the best, doesn't call itself World Champions. It's just a matter of respecting the rest of the world.
Very true
@@jakemccoyNobody - except for the World.😂
@@jakemccoybro what, soccer is the biggest sport in the world by far it’s not even a competition
We have the club World Cup though which technically makes clubs world champions
@@owentanner27 the players who win the club world cup are world champions, they won against the best in every continent.
If the lakers won the nba and played against the winners of every league in a tournament then won again they would be world champions
Noah just shut everyone up with an Olympic gold medal. Walked the talk ❤
Why is he saying it like it's not obvious?? I want to believe he's that stupid. Did he need to get a text from a friend to realize that???
And then revealed he ran with everyone else knowing he had Covid, on top of getting a bronze the very next race
@@Bryan-zf6bnwhat they really need is an American that actually points it out
Bronz in 200m🥱
@@Aaronxxi y'all are acting like bronze is a bad thing. Bro literally got a podium finish with covid. First male American to win gold in 100 meters in 20 years and just because he caused you physical pain with the "world champion" comment, you guys are actively rooting against your own countrymen. On the other hand it took 4 mvps to beat jokic and a bunch of role players in basketball. Cope harder
Stephen A didn't know this before? How flagrantly ignorant!!
Because he is stupid..
Sad reality bro . Not only him but It’s Americans in general
Many Americans do not want know about outside success if it's not American
@@lolo1973fulbecause they are stupjd.
My thoughts exactly. Did someone have to tell him this?
I’ll say this. The nba champions are the best basketball team in the world, but by definition aren’t world champions
Spot on. The NBA champs will beat any team from the rest of the world. But the nba is a national sports competition, not an international one.
Completely valid statement, they can be the best. Still not world champions tho.
Even that is not true.NBA champions lost to Barcelona and other teams.
@@davidkelly499Even that is not true.NBA champions lost to Barcelona and other teams
@@redmarine2717 Yeah they could lose a one off game here or there, its sport so these things happen. It was more a general comment, but technically you are correct 👍🏻
Mad respect for coming out and apologising and admitting his error
What’s funny is “fact #2” is exactly why he wasn’t ignorant and should’ve stood on his case. The Los Angeles lakers (not currently constructed, could do a world tour and beat every team they went up against. & “fact” #3 is pure semantics, & using soccer which is the oldest global sport in the world is a false equivalence. The best team from the premier league probably wouldn’t sweep the world championships tourneys. However you take the last 2 champions of the NBA & they would absolutely sweep the rest of the world outside of the USA.
People don’t want them to be called world champs cuz it hurts yall ego’s and its “America” so it’s cool to hate on. But they’re world champs until the rest of the world wants to line it up with the NBA.
@@Rodricktyrone
How old soccer is as a sport is totally irrelevant. Using this reason to call the comparison a "false equivalence" is just so wrong.
Consider a ping pong tournament in china where Chinese province's franchisees organize players playing each other, and there's is no franchise outside of China participating. It would be very weird for Chinese people to call the winning franchise as the world champion.
The fact you think it is normal for US to do this, just demonstrate the stereotypical egotistic tendency and self-centeredness of Americans.
It is understandable for US as global leader to be a little egotistic...but Americans should grow a little self awareness on how ignorant they are in the global convention of what categorize as international and what categorize as national...US is not the world...
@@bohanxu6125 I have 0 knowledge of the Chinese ping pong competition on any level to even try to make sense of your example or to try & dispute it. But once again anytime us Americans disagree with something yall run to ego/arrogance. You have nothing else to argue. The World Cup was built in the early 1920’s/30’s so soccer had World competition WAY BEFORE the premier league was even founded. Whereas the NBA was founded in 1946 with the first fiba match happening in 1950, and the rest of the world never even took basketball somewhat seriously until the late 80’s/90’s. So no, we don’t care about yall semantics of naming who’s a world champion. The NBA has been around longer than the Fiba tourney and has been more competitive throughout its existence. USA throws their Jv squad into the fiba tourneys every 4 years but just cuz yall want it to count for something important doesn’t make it so. FIBA is not as important as FIFA.
@@Rodricktyrone
"But once again anytime us Americans disagree with something yall run to ego/arrogance"
but ego and self-centeredness is exactly what is going on here. There are many other countries who dominate certain sport (like China and ping pong). No other country would hold a national tournament with team from its cities, and call it world championship. It is exactly the stereotypically American self-centeredness.
"So no, we don’t care about yall semantics of naming who’s a world champion."
Once again the self-centeredness. Other countries follow each other's conventional semantics so they can communicate effectively. They create semantics like "international competition/champion" and "national competition/champion" that almost all countries agree on.
US on the other hand, refers its own national/continental tournament with cities-based teams, as "world champion".
There are many other similar things like calling football soccer despite the international convention. Using empirical units despite international convention. The name "world series" when US rarely won baseball in summer Olympics. and when people from all other countries correctly points out the disadvantage of US's unusual and suboptimal convention/semantics. Some americans just respond with the self-centered "we don’t care"
@@Rodricktyrone Hypotheticals don't make one a champion.
And you should learn that European teams and American teams are not such a clear cut. Look at the results f European vs American teams, and you'll sea that the NBA doesn't dominate AT ALL...
Why did my United just catch an insane stray? We already going through enough 😭
Hahaha indeed bro
😂
Bruh United ain't even champions 💀
I caught that too
He meant City
Exactly! The NBA Champions may arguably be the best basketball team in world but the NBA is not a world competition. The UEFA Champions League winners almost always win the Club World Cup Competition the following season which basically means they're the best football/soccer club team in the world, but they never call themselves world champions. Its a question of respect for the rest of the world and the competition in which you're participating. Just call yourselves NBA Champions... Ain't nothing wrong with that.
Even the best rooster in u.s during FIBA world cup in 2019 lost ,how come example Boston Celtics 2024 can beat Germany 2019 xd I doubt NBA teams can beat an FIBA competition
Noah Lyles is on the pace of changing the media language when a team wins an NBA Title
Once the Olympics is over, no one will be talking about him next June, who ever wins the NBA Finals will still be champions. I didn’t know who he was until he mentioned the NBA. Glad he won gold for us though.
@@life0093thats just u tho 😢 once again u guys think the world evolves around u 😂
@@sharp5293 Basketball was invented, popularized, and mastered
in the United States. And we have 16 gold medals in basketball. So the basketball world does revolve around the US. I don’t talk that way about Football(Soccer) because we aren’t good at it. When it comes to Basketball, we’re number one.
@@life0093 football was invented in england yet fifa world cup is held in different countries 😂 its a global competition where if u win it u can call ursef world champs just cus its the main sport of the usa doesnt mean theyre the world champs 😂 does the premier league champions call themselves the world champions (NO) 😂😂😂🤷♂️ also ur top all star ‘avengers’ team almost got beaten by south sudan… 😂😂😂 sure it was an exhibition game, so they could say they werent trying but thats still on the fault of the us team for ‘not trying’. The team with all the special equipment and facilities to practice on and recover with… came close to a team from a country with not even outdoor basketball courts…
@@sharp5293 Ok, but you’re getting excited about a game that they won. That’s why we’re called the world champions. Desperate foreigners are dancing in the streets whenever we lose, because it’s rare.
I don’t care what those teams call themselves. Americans don’t care about soccer. When another country wins 16 medals in their sport, or wins 4 gold medals in a row, they can call their league champions whatever they want. And guess what? We won’t care.
Nice that he apologized. A bit strange that a sports commentator had to be educated about this facts.
Hes not. Everyone knows that the best team in the NBA is the best team in the world at them moment so there world champions
@@Lj_anpdid you really watch the video? Like are you stupid? Do you understand English?
@@Lj_anpit’s not abt that, it’s abt humility and respect. any european would crush us in soccer, any south asian team would crush us in cricket, and any east asian team would crush us in ping pong. they never claim to be world champions, ye they def can beat the rest of the world. ur making us look bad.
@Mush_Noodle but am i wrong. Besides this hidden unwritten rule that all of a sudden the best team in the world cant call themselves world champions. Literally when we lose a game they celebrate like they won a gold medal thats why the nba can call themselves world champions
@@Lj_anp Wasn't gonna bother to reply but I'll give it a try. You can only be crowned World champions after you play a World cup in the sport. Winning a National championship doesn't make you a World champion. It doesn't matter if you think your club is the best in the world, it's still a club level National championship. Man City after winning this years EPL will not be World Champions of football. Hope that's clear enough. Cheers.
Some people just don’t like facts .
How tf r these facts. He used soccer as an example 😂😂 The second best league in soccer (Bundesliga) has Bayern (#2 World), Leipzig (#7 World). The 3rd best league is the La Liga and it contains powerhouses such as Real Madrid and Barcelona. The skill and talent gap between the NBA and the second best basketball league is INFINITELY bigger than the skill and talent gap between the Premier League and Serie A (9-11th best league).
Second point, the best players worldwide do not all want to play in the premier league but EVERY basketball pro wants to play in the NBA. The NBA consists of the best talent in the world and it’s not CLOSE. You will find the best 300-400 basketball players in the world in the NBA.
The NBA championship IS the world championship. Using soccer as a comparison is just beyond stupid.
N in NBA stands for National ?
@@Max-ys3xg Man City are the worlds best club football team because they won that competition . They held a throohy over there head that 1. Domestic 2. European . 3rd title was for the worlds ?
Are you familiar with this cup please look it up , hope I educated you today .
@@Max-ys3xg 1st best is la liga (Spain) holds the most record for European and world titles (yes the play clubs around the to achieve this title)
@@Max-ys3xgimma tell u smth
even if smth is the best it doesnt make it world champion
Ur just so stupid arent u? im not even gonna respond to someone that stupid
The fact that he needed someone to clarify it says a lot about his intelligence.
And the rest of the characters who trolled him about it
Someone that doesn't even play organized sports, an actor....had a more intelligent perspective on this than he did (a sports analyst)
💯
Stephen A is cleared 👍 that's a proper apology
If he criticized on national television then he should apologize on national television and not on his podcast that less people watches. On first take he's always quick to say he's on national television so he should apologize on national television
You must have seen a lot more than just This Clip!! 🤷🏽♂️
No, SAS consistently makes ignorant comments. He disrespects people, and when he’s called out, he offers insincere apologies. He seems to be building a career on this-when will it finally stop?
Only Americans would call someone winning an American tournament world champions 😭
So, I have you on record saying that the NBA champion would lose to some other team. Wow...just bad.
@@dame3323 I never said that. But now I know you’re American cause you don’t know how to read. Winning a national tournament doesn’t make you world champions. Winning a world championship does. That’s like Manchester City are the world champions cause they won the Premier League. No they’re world champs cause they actually won a world championship. But of course as usual Americans only know America. Let’s go America. Trying to assassinate our future president and murder a lot of kids at school. The American dream baby!
Ignorant bunch 😂
Keep crying buddy lmao #WorldChampions
@@dame3323 he never said that. We all know that America is the best at basketball no question about that. But calling themselves world champions where the NBA is only an American sports league. You have the Olympics and FIBA World Cup for you to be called world champions.
World Champions ❌
Best Team in the World ✅
Yeah well I don't see anybody in the world coming to challenge us. That makes us world champions by default.
@@TetsuYama-t4b u talkin about basketball teams or the usa team? Either way lil bro, that title only works when you represent your country against other people representing their countries, example : when a football team wins the champions league they are called "the champions of europe" not a "world champion", and remember yall didnt even win the basketball world cup 💀
"...I had to articulate some harsh words for Noah Lyles".
No, SAS, you didn't have to.
I had that same question as a kid when my Chicago Bulls were “World Champion”
90s Bulls were absolutely the best basketball team in the world during that time and we all know why/who verifies that debae
@@b0ssatr0n91 still have to compete to prove tho.
@@b0ssatr0n91 Still have to compete with team in the other nation to prove they're the best..
Best Basketball Team is diffeent from Word Champion Team
@@leeben7578 No you don't. That's like a child arguing that the heavyweight champion of the world has to fight every person in the world to prove that he's the world champion. That's absurd.
Cmon people everyone knows the “i” in NBA stands for International 👌
I salute Stephen A for this apology. Lyles was right all along
Yall better keep your mouths shut when UsA wins gold this summer Olympics in basketball
@@OneZxxscscyes, maybe, but until then you don't have the right to say they are the world champion. Its just logic not hard to think about
@@jagrandom641 We win when it matters with our A team. Yall can have the little brother WC trophy that our C team couldn’t get lmaoooooo
@@OneZxxscsc maybe, but til then you cant call yourselves champion. aint hard to comprehend man
@@jagrandom641 little brother champion ? Nah we take Olympics instead 😂😂😂😂
We have called our professional sports champions world champions for as long as I can remember and I’ve always said it was wrong, but that is the arrogance of us 😂
Really? That's outrageous.
I can kinda see why though, in American leagues we have the best of the best from other countries as well. Not just Americans although they play on American teams.
@@the_antisocial I see the reasoning, but that's not how "world champion" is defined really. It's a national league still. Really no one would get the idea of calling themselves "world champion" but the americans. Kinda sad, but the stereotype holds true in this case...
@@the_antisocial that’s true in Basketball and Baseball. That’s also more because we pay the best in those sports than any other country.
Reason why in NBA, MLB and NFL they say they are world champs is because when the sport was invented, it was only played in USA and no where else in the world. So, yes they were world champs.
Now these sports are played worldwide but the term world champs is still used in the US because of habit.
He is man enough to apologize, respect 🔥🙏
Only when everybody els is also against you lol
Only when he’s in his podcast, he sayas a lot of wild shit in first take for the ratings
THEY MADE HIM!
Wonder when he'll apologize to Max Kellerman...
Nah Stephen A is a coward. And when he does these apologies, it’s a result of outside pressure. That’s what this podcast is for. Can’t wait til he goes away
Same applies for América, América is a continet NOT a COUNTRY!!!
The official name of the country of Mexico is the United States of Mexico.
People from the United States of Mexico are called Mexicans.
The official name of America is called the United States of America. People from USA are called Americans. That’s is the name of the country .
Also there is no continent of America. There is North and South America and some countries recognize a Central America. No country recognizes a single continent called America.
Thank you!!! I even said to some Brazilians that they are American by definition but they were kinda confused about it 😅 USA propaganda is wild
Um, no. There is no continent called America. There are 2 or 3 continents. Depending which country you are from, that have North, South and in some countries, Central America.
The official name of Mexico is the United States of Mexico. The people from Mexico are called Mexicans. People from the USA are called Americans. Has nothing to do with the continent. It’s the name of the country. People from Brazil are South Americans. People from USA are North Americans.
@@br0nzepen 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@br0nzepenWhen people are ignorant of the facts you cannot argue with them at all, there are only 7 continents in the world and. There is no continent named Central and Latin America continent, it is north America continent. Just like how you have central and south Florida, it is only a location is in the state. There are 23 countries in North America continent including the United States and, there are 12 countries in South America continent. There is nowhere named Caribbean islands, it is all situated in north America continent. The word Caribbean islands came from the Caribs Indians, but there is no countries named Caribbean islands but. The white people indoctrinated the black people, by changing the narratives. I have a few people is telling me which university or college that they been to and, studied geography and I cannot tell them anything. I told the guy that he could be my son and, if I did destroyed those books 📚. He wouldn't have anything to read at all, this guy is so ignorant. That he doesn't even know that 13 States was apart of Mexico and the United States, fought them and took away because of the oil in Texas. The majority of people that born in the United States, they are very much indoctrinated how to hates other people and. They strongly believes that they are better than the rest of countries in the world, and they strongly believes that they are more educated. Than the rest of countries in the world, because they say things differently and also pronunciating their words from the rest of countries and. They failed to know that the United States was once ruled by England and, they fought to get their independence from Britain. So they have changed everything from England, also spelling of the words and the laws.
I mean the education system in USA seriously lacks somewhere. It takes you so much time to understand what a World Championship is?
Arbitrary and up for interpretation as all global things are exhibit war crimes
US education system is a joke
I mean you could argue in certain sports that are almost 95%+ played in just 1 country and almost 99% of all the best players being in the same league that winning that league should qualify you as the world champion
Football is very different
Insane talent are spread all across the world and all across different leagues
The best leagues back in the 60s were in South America
But for example basketball the best league was the nba in the 60s and the best league is stil the nba
And no other leagues is even close since the Aba merger
@@universalplayz7496there are countries that are more dominant in a sport than the US and the NBA are in basketball. For example Ireland with hurling, India with kabaddi or the Netherlands in Korfball. Yet in none of those sports the national champion of the dominant country is considered world champion, and they have actual international competitions to determine the world champion
@@GRB-tj6uj I don’t think you can actually be more dominant only equally as dominant at best
As throughout the entire history of basketball there was never a single year where a different nation had a better 15 man roster than the U.S couldn’t beat if they wanted to
There’s ofc many sports that aren’t played by nearly as many people so it’s easier for 1 area to completely dominant
You gone tell me in the U.S nobody can make the difference between National & Worldwide…??
Finally, some honesty and humility in the face of facts.
The fact that there is the debate about this is very laughable! That speaks volume!!!
This part!!! I just SMH when it all started- made me embarrassed for our school systems 😂😂😂
Muricans be world champion without competing against other countries 😂😂
I don’t know, if they’re winning the biggest world championship in basketball, the Olympics, every year for the past 90 years except 4 times, I think the muricans really are the world champions in that sport, wouldn’t you say?
@@user-ok7yl2ym5n a few things.. What happened in the fiba World Cup? They definitely aren’t the current world champions.
Is the NBA the same as the Olympics? can’t wait to see Celtics play at the olympics this year😅.
The NBA is a competition between North American teams, there are no teams from elsewhere so calling nba champs world champs would be inaccurate. Are they the best? Yes absolutely, but you can only be champion among the teams you compete against so winners among NBA teams is rightly the NBA champion but that’s it. The title of champion is supposed to be earned not gifted
LOL nobody competes in music
INDEED BABY.... OLYMPICS ITS THE REAL COMPETITION SINCE 2,000 YEARS AGO🙄🙄🫡
Being the best isn't being the champ...how da Fuck is that debatable ???
Funny thing is you needed a text for clarification to apologise!Thankyou Mr Noah Lyles for saying something out loud that the rest of the world were tolerating.
Well that was the obvious truth the whole time lol

Even if European football teams are by far the best teams in the world, they host a world cup for football teams once per year, where the best team of every continent (which almost always is being won by a European team, sometimes by a South American team) competes against each other for the world title.

They are both right. Technically, They aren't world champions. But I don't think anybody would argue America doesn't have the best basketball players in the world. So if you are the best in America you are probably best in the world.
Manchester United? Yeah that guy lost credibility.
Champions League is considered to be the best club team in the world. But world champions are reserved for the country's national teams.
People misunderstood "best in the world" which represent your level and "world champion" which is a title that you earn by winning a world championship

Are you insane? The champions league is a European championship. Like the Euros or Copa América.
@@remowilliams7029 Wow you can read the replies cant you...illiterate
Every dot point he read out I was like "duuhh!!" It's not that hard. 😂😂
Manchester United have actually been world champion twice cos the club world cup exists.
Do you even listen to this video? Fact #1: Players compete for their COUNTRIES for a world title. Also Fact #2: Manchester is a city in the UK with a team called Manchester Utd, its is not a COUNTRY, therefore they can't compete for a world championship or called themself world champion. If they called themself world champion they are as ignorant as the leagues in the USA.
Beautiful apology, guy showed heart
They put their best players on the teams. Our best players rarely play in FIBA and when they do, they dominate.
As for Olympics, the US has won 16 of 19 possible championships, for women’s, 9 out of 11…….. and again….the US rarely uses the best of the best.
You really don't get it, do you ??!!
It is NOT about the level at which the US team may be... It's about the arrogance of calling a national league "World Champions" ... Do you know what the "N" stands for in "NBA" or "NFL" ??!!!
Exactly
A TRUE MAN ACCEPTS HIS MISTAKES... THIS MAN IS HONORABLE & RECOGNIZE HIS MISTAKES.... A TRUE MAN!!😊
take the NBA champion, play them against the best national team in the world (except the USA, because that's unfair) in a best of 7 series BUT the NBA team gets to keep their players (because that's only fair, we're specifically saying that NBA team can beat any national team in the world, so if its the nuggets vs. serbia the nuggets get to keep Jokic NOT Serbia; because the nuggets are trying to prove they are the best in the world); and you will find that the NBA champion is undoubtedly the world champion.
💯
The "level" and the "title" are 2 differents things, y'all are dumb on purpose or what ??
Can any team from any other part of the world beat an NBA champion??? NO! So therefore WORLD CHAMPS
I think he apologizes a lot that means he says things without thinking
I mean do you need to be a nuclear savant in order to know the champion of one sport field in a country does not become automatically a world champion? As he mentioned anyway particular clubs or sport organizations do not become really world champions anyway because you most of the time don't have the buget or logistics to play basketball against a Australian eastern European Canadian and Brazilian team in the same season therefore you don't have any realistic mode to prove objectively that you are better than them. The only team that can be called a world champion is the Olympics team and its members
Theres 2 countries in the nba. USA and Canada (Toronto Raptors). Which means the NBA is in fact an international league. Which means world champions is valid.
Except USA and Canada don't represent the world so you can't speak of a "world" champion.
so Man City were world champions in 2019 because a team from Wales competed in the English domestic futbol league? no, were PSG world champions because a team from Monaco competed in the French domestic futball league? no, the NBA is NATIONAL basketball association its not world champions
America is world champions of ignorance about the world.
The Boston Celtics would easily win the gold medal 🏅 if they could enter
Are you telling me that you still didn't get it? If Manchester City were to enter into FIFA world cup competition, they would probably win it but they would not be allowed to enter because the tournament is about representing the entire country, not a team or a city. Jason Tatum had limited minutes while playing for team USA in Paris Olympics. why? As Steve Kerr said, Jason had to adapt to playing with the best players representing the entire nation and still, we cannot call the team that just won the Gold Medal in Paris the world champions. They are the Olympic champions as there is another tournament called FIBA Basketball World Cup. This should not be debatable. It's time to bring back geography into American classrooms.
The Thing is Americans are silly. You can only win a World Championship when you compete against other teams from other countries all around the World. But NBA teams don't Do that. So they are not World Champions. Simple as that
The thing is, any nba championship team will beat any country in basketball. Thats why people say that. Its really not hard to understand.
Exactly.. Ppl just salty
But you don’t take Real Madrid to play against USA 😂 that wouldn’t be something for real to be proud of if they beat a national team 😂 c’mon 😂
The thing is in football ,any European club champion would beat any teams in the world. Yet we never called ourselves world champions until we won competing against the world. It's not that hard to understand too.

Actually, Manchester United was called world champions in 2009 when they won the fifa Club World Cup, but that was a global competition, so the point is still valid.
H-U-M-B-L-E-D
It shouldn't take a long explanation for an adult to know this.
Stephen A usually doesn’t think before he speaks
No one would call Manchester United a world champion because they ain’t fucking winning
Football/Soccer literally has a club world cup
But even then the club isn't world champion. Only the winner of the fifa world cup can be that.
@@gabbagandalf2070 they literally are. Hence, club world cup. You can argue the prestige of it but the winners are literally world champions
@@ken_kaniff246 sure I can. Because there is no qualification for it and not every club can compete in it. For the fifa world cup there is a qualification period of 2 years and every nation can qualify for the final tournament and win it. The club world cup is different.
@@gabbagandalf2070 bruh world cup is to decide the best country and club world cup is to decide the best club. This is easily accessible information
@@ken_kaniff246 I know what it is.
The fact that a friend has to send you a message tu understand that it’s craaaaazy.
At least he apologised
The simple fact he ignored the (very simple) facts he enumerates prove he is dumb and should be listened to.
The fact he apologize publicly about it proves he is brave and intellectually honest.
I'm divided
Common sense accept his apologies!
No matter how influential some people are an American is always handicapped when it comes to general knowledge and common sense.
The phrase ignorance is bliss is truly apt for most Americans
It’s not even debatable it’s just wrong
No it's not
Just because he said it in that tone a lot of people didn’t even listen to what Noah said
It's acceptable to say champions of the world when all the best players want to be in the NBA
No it’s not 😂 it’s only because Zhou lack of competition in the USA. You have sport as a business only.
@@jaroslavbures212 If NBA players cared about the basketball world cup the US would be world champions, they simply don't care about a league that's less competitive than the NBA and the Olympics. Plain and simple
@@Q-64 still only idiot an Us citizen can call world champions winners of national league 😂
In soccer there’s at least 5 NFLs, MLBs or NBA’s. They’re called the top 5 leagues and they are in France, England, Spain, Italy and Germany. Each country has an nba champion level team at the end of the season and none call theirselves the world champions. The European champions league is the biggest and most prestigious men’s club team competition in world soccer. And the winner is called European champion not world champion even when it’s obvious they’re the best team in the world. The world champs is only earned thru the World Cup. FIBA or Olympics is what should truly decide the world champs
Cough Manchester City
No one respects Man City enough to mention them
City is still Far from United's Success bro.. numbers do not lie and the trophy cabinet do not lie . City have changed and is top 3 best team in the World for a couple of years now.. Right now they are ahead of United, but gonna take some years to be in the Same bracket As United..City needs alot more league titles, some more UCL, FA CUP and so On....
This man is always apologizing. Speak on stuff and not people, because every time he speaks on someone, he begins his apology arc
Huh? Manchester United is not the best club in England.
He prolly meant to say city
As of now, they are far from being the best (but historically they are top in the Premier League)
The "World Champion of what The United States" is just iconic
Good to SEE S.A.S. take ownership of HIS mistake. Noah Lyles was 100 percent CORRECT (even though his delivery could have been better and more professionally stated).
Noah Lyles said sonething so obvious that the americans realized maybe they are not the world 😂
It is MUCH harder to get a spot on an NBA roster than on an international basketball roster, and significantly more impressive. No team in the world could beat the NBA champs, and I don’t think anyone could seriously argue that point. That makes them world champions in my eyes.
A 7 game series between the NBA champions and the euro league champions should close this
When facts take over you will loose your argument and hopefully you become humble enough to accept you were wrong
Noah Lyles is the World Champion of the most competitive human activity on earth... running from here to there. No kidding. It's certainly the biggest sport in history and often overlooked because its just so damn competitive. Fact.
Glad USA think out of USA 😂
MANCHESTER UNITED?!!! I almost dropped my croissant
How the hell didn’t he know this? But he’s calling everyone else ignorant? 😂
After watching the latest Olympics you can tell the rest of the world is catching up.
world champion of chocking LYLE'S that you are sir
it's crazy that he had to have this pointed out to him
lol the fact he had to have this explained to him sums up Americans 😂😂😂
