For some reason, Europeans get so mad at American football.

They're angry people over there. That explains all the soccer riots.

Angry?

Not angry, just find it strange how you like to call the sport football, when it is clearly not football anymore, it used to be, but then you changed the rules so much that it is a different sport altogether. It's like Rugby, that used to be football too, but at least they had the sense ro rename it to Rugby Football. Also there are a lot of angry people all over the world mate, especially Americans... (Any mass shootings this week?)

Anyway, that is that, i will let you get back to the handegg.

I don't think that would pass in the UK lol. That sentence would get you killed. Especially on a match night. Unfortunately that is no joke. People in the UK enjoy the sport of destroying killing and maiming in the name of sport. That is the national sport. Which for my money is far better than men on a pitch spitting posing and gyrating around an overly lavish stadium with balls and or wooden sticks.

In the UK they incorporate and celebrate that culture by actually using wooden sticks to beat the balls of opposing teams supporters, and if the beloved teams lose. They don't cry and beat their wives, they beat up police officers and everything and everyone in the local vicinity. Expect riots and blood.

Football is called such in the UK and the rest of the world, because feet are the primary use needed for playing it. You do not use your hands.

American Football. Is primarily played with hands weirdly enough, I do not know why or anything about it outside of the Bruce Willis move The Last Boy Scout (They have guns n stuff right ? :headscratch:

) I do not follow it really, but those cheerleader chicks have my full support and backing.

Baseball is cricket/rounders on steroids. Literally. I don't get it, don't understand it, my only understanding of it is from the Kevin Costner film Field of Dreams, one team of living and a team of deceased fight it out for the love and nostalgia of years gone past or some shit.

Same can be said for UK football, don't get it don't like it, or the over paid rapists employed to kick a round orb around a field. :headscratch:

In a seemingly unending parade of the same thing. There will never be an ultimate winner EVER!!!. There are seasons and everyone can have a bash. You may win you may not mostly depending on luck and the like. For the most part there is never any actual great skill involved in these sports. The years go by and it all remains the same. Same goes for all fucking sports. People will support their neighbourhoods and form some kind of bond with the team closest to them.

Id love to see a random wildcard year in sports. Where every sport has to invent one crazy rule and enforce it to the death. Like mandatory steroids in snooker. Or forced drink driving in F1, or pressure landmine tennis.

I have often wondered why I have no interest in sport, I think it stems from the logical standpoint of I am unwilling to invest so much time energy and heartache into something I will never hope to see ultimately concluded, but those who enjoy it enjoy it for their own reasons. I think sport is a kind of religion. It is certainly a following, so therefore it must be classed religion.

So next time if someone asks you what faith you are. Say I'm a Lakers or Man United or a Usain Bolt its no less accurate.

So remember kids, you have computers today, you can play sports on them, fuck the field, play PS3 and grow fat and content in the knowledge that you are actually involved in those games, best part is you can do it while eating pizza too. :dancing:

Anyhow, go team :clapper:

Oh oh wait.... hand grenade hockey!

Instead of a puc a live grenade is used, but it has a secret timer and nobody except the home audience knows when the timer will expire and it goes off ?. :nails:

You don't like any sports?

What about darts, if you can call that a sport?
