What is the attitude of German people to the club teams that played during the Third Reich?

I don't know about that. But I do know that the germans are extremely sensitive to what happened then (Hitler and the Jews and everything), and I don't think that they would feel that celebrating the achievements of Third Reich-era clubs would be quite proper as football is often (as I have found out over the last few months) quite a national pride thing (Not just in terms of national teams as many people might support their hometown teams as a national/regional identity thing). But to be honest, I don't think it matters unless those clubs actively supported the regime or used Jew labour (like Porsche did; Jews from the concentration camps worked in their car-assembly plants).

Anyway, don't they always say NOT to politicize sport? After all, it's the Washington Wizards one supports, not the Bush administration. More.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
