Let me tell you something: pads ain't going to help you when you have a 250 lb guy taking a helmet-shoulder shot at your knee. If anything the helmet/shoulder pads are more of a weapon. Players hit harder when they wear pads.

Get the American Football mug.An American Based clothing manufacturer that is unfortunately popular with the modern hipster community.
American Apparel t-shirts are noticeable better quality and fit than $4 Wal*Mart shirts in addition to producing excellent screen printing results. They are under fire from people that have never felt how soft and light an American Apparel shirt is and people that do not know how a t-shirt should properly fit. Their t-shirts are worth the price you pay; frugal individuals can find AA t-shirts for under $10.

American Apparel shirts are soft and light, not cheap and rough like Wal*Mart, Hanes or Gildan t-shirts shirts.

Get the African American mug.When African-American is too stiff and boring, and black doesn't give enough of a nod to the need for equality or the years of oppression, you need to create a new term to blaze new territory.
Blackfrican-American is that term.

Get the American Gangster mug.People who reside in Northern or Southern America, but usually pertaining to the United States. Contrary to popular opinion, not all Americans are fat, eat at McDonalds, drive 4 SUVs, or think their country is the best.
Many Americans I know eat like normal people though. Last time I checked there, I have seen more ads for healthy, organic food than for McDonalds. It wasn't like that a few years ago though.
SUVs are becoming less common, and there is now a growing number of Hybrids on the road. Driving a Peugot around on an interstate highway wouldn't be as safe as a Prius, but still very efficient.
Americans also aren't stupid at geography either. Most do know that England and Scotland are two entirely different countries.
Not every American is arrogant about their country. The US is the world's lone superpower, but whether it is the "best" is subjective and must be based on many variables. Most the negative definitions about the US come from Americans themselves.
Oh, and you can make fun of American culture, but chances are if you have a computer and internet then you are as greedy a capitalist as they are.
America is a huge country, so there are definitely many nutcases out there, but you can't judge an entire country based on a few pricks on the internet. I have met many people who have traveled to America and had a grand time there. America may not be perfect, but it has a lot to offer if you look in the right places.

Bigoted American: "Our country can kick your ass! Our culture is sooo much better"
(answers Japanese-manufactured cell phone)
Bigoted European: "Whatever, you greedy capitalist yanks"
(takes huge handful of McDonald's french fries)
Observer: "Guys, shut the fuck up, you both sound like idiots."
