what the fuck is so intresting about soccer? and please call it what it is. football is a much better sport for your viewing pleasue

I grew up supporting football, and so I've always had an interest in it. I quite like American Football (please call it what it is :moon:) I usually watch the Superbowl and find it quite a cool sport. We don't have too much interest in it over here because it's not played profesionally in our country.
I think the biggest drawback for American Football is the fact it's only played in North America. The whole world plays football and that allows for major international tounaments. You can't play international games of American Football because only 1 or 2 countries play it. I think a lot more people over here would be interested in American Football if we had our own major league.

It's football. Not my fault that you're abusing the language and the game. :P

Not a football fan, but the highlights in the 8 o clock news were funny to look at indeed.  :thumbup:

Watching it now. Not a good game, though.

I hate sports on TV.  Going to a game is different that's fun if I can get drunk enough to get over my dislike of crowds

Do your family support a different team, or are they just not interested in it?

A game where each team may score a hand full of points? Dead boring.

Have you ever watched a game of AFL?

no - it's too shitty to watch a whole game

the fact that in real football teams don't score all through the game is what makes it interesting. if they were scoring points continuously then it would be boring. the feeling you get when your team does score would be gone
