If someone is running with the ball and the cheering keeps getting louder, that means running with the ball is good.When everyone groans that means something bad just happened. That's pretty much all you need to know to enjoy the game. It's like cricket, the basics only seem basic when you've grown up with the game.That sounds like most hot dates who just want to land herself a regular guy and will do whatever it takes to bag one."Oh! everyone is cheering, say YAY!"

It was actually worse than that.
Imagine if Penny and Leonard had all the same attributes as in the show except tha Penny was also a lot more intelligent and better educated than Leonard. No wonder my version of Penny went and married a rich banker.
In my defence I do understand the rules and the basics of all the major sports played in my own country. I'm just not all that interested in most of them.
^I'm quite proud that I got the golf analogy. That's the sport where you hit the little ball with the long stick and try to get the little ball in the hold.

I am okay at putting but not so good at the larger movements. I don't have the gross motor skills.
