masterrig 1 #26 June 21, 2010 Quote Quote Quote maybe if a little more contact was allowed (not quite as much as hockey) and they scored more goals it would be more fun to watch. What do you think the single most popular team sport in the world is? appairently its one that involves throwing yourself on the ground, faking and injury, and crying while occasionally kicking a ball around. What about the Sharks and Ducks in hockey... they do a lot of that! That's called 'diving'.Chuck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mnealtx 0 #27 June 21, 2010 Quote Quote American football' is very far from a manly sport, it does have contact and it does take strength but manly is hardly an accurate description, roller derby has those attributes and some of the following also. American football is for goons with no stamina that are too scared to hurt themselves. Much like the audience. Funny as hell post, thanks. I'll tell you, though, when you put on all that stuff and line up on the guy across from you, ready to knock the bejezzus out of each other, it can be a lot of fun. And I do beg to differ on the injury thing. Most football players end their careers due to injuries, great and small. It's not easy on the body. Looks like rugby players end their careers due to assburns... Mike I love you, Shannon and Jim. POPS 9708 , SCR 14706 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rick 67 #28 June 21, 2010 Quote i've been watching a little world cup. might i suggest the players get some acting lessons? every time an opposing players jersey brushes against someone, he will throw himself on the ground wrything in pain and crying to the ref for not giving a yellow card. maybe if a little more contact was allowed (not quite as much as hockey) and they scored more goals it would be more fun to watch. Damn when you put it like that it sounds like the NBA You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I saw a pickup game between some Euro League football guys and some semipro Rugby guys when I lived in Germany. Took a little bit for the footballers to pick up the hang of it, but once they did, it wasn't pretty for the rugby team.Mike I love you, Shannon and Jim.
