It's Puerto Rican day. There was even a parade. With the way Barea played, he can bust out his flag if he wants.

Because he's from Puerto Rico and is latino, so naturally he's sporting the flag of his nationality and birthplace.

Re: what is j.j. barea doing with that flag?
I never thought you US fellows would have a problem with someone busting out the flag.
I mean, don't you guys bust out the stars and stripers for every celebration ever?

Re: what is j.j. barea doing with that flag?
I think people need to understand that US players win the title every year. It's rarer some of these countries have players who win. So, when a player wins (like Barea) he breaks out the flag to show that his supporters in PR, he's thinking of you. Like Manu did with Argentina. I see no problem with it. I think it's great.
