super bowl

My money's on the colts, what about you guys?

I don't know. Never seen any American football.

20 buck on the Colts without a doubt.

sh*t man I can't believe the colts f-cked up like that in the 4th quarter. I was screaming at that one interception so hard dude...

Man I thought the colts had it without a doubt but then... bam those saints pummeled us

After it was finished, I heard the BBC had broadcast it in the UK & I'm like "WTF!?"

It was ruined by the brits saying stuff like "So, is he good enough to score some more?" or some crap like that. Typical brit stuff. Sooner I migrate, the better.

I'm sure manning feels like a dumbass

dude that's an understatement I'll be surprised if he appears in another ad again... The first and second quarters were nice though. As to the halftime performance, I deeply enjoy The Who, but those mofos are waaaay too old to be performing like that. All the songs they sang sound ten times better on my iPod, especially if you remove the fancy lights and adrenaline-rushed crowd that facilitated their performance. I don't really follow football as much as I used to, but without the hype and spirit, it wouldn't stand out of the crowd as much as other sports. You could watch an entire soccer match (if it had no advertisements or commentaries, which isn't really possible, but hypothetically) and enjoy it more than football. Don't think me un-American for saying that, but I, for one, refuse to bow down to all the corporate bs involved with sports these days. Talent is no longer an asset to a team as much as background and character is...

That's true Ice. Football with just me and my friends is the way to play it. We just have fun. But the Pro Football players get paid WAAAAY too much. Even the sucky players.
Plus, football is barely a sport. It's taking a break every 10-30 seconds for ANOTHER 30 second break. And all they do is jump on the guy with the ball.
In soccer, EVERY player ALWAYS is doing something and plays a role. Soccer players have WAY more endurance than anyone else in any other sport, am I right? (at least the good soccer players)
Basketball needs SOME endurance, but mostly sprints.

and hand-eye coordination. Dude Basketball is fun to play though, it's fun to play every now and then. Football is still fun but, personally, I like Soccer better.

I just don't understand how Football has the same psychological effects as alcohol or something you know? I don't really get much tension when I'm watching football as other sports. For some people, watching football is like an "off switch" that I don't really get. But that's all probably 'cause I'm one weird motha fucka

Well Basketball is only fun if you're tall or can sink a basket.and if you get the ball.. The only fun part to watch is the last two minutes. I'm tall enough, and I'm decent at shooting, but not the best.

Football is definitely harder than people think..but again, they get paid so much players hardly have to try.

yeah money is truly the biggest liability to a team, but the best teams have talent, confidence, appeal, and respect, which is what I base my definition of "a good team" on. I didn't think that the Saints really have that, and I still think that they don't; but hell I could be wrong. Ehh well what's done is done. My fav team is the Steelers btw, what about you mr. bug?

1. It's "Football," not "Soccer." You don't like "Soccer," you like "Football." What you are talking about is American Football, a.k.a. Hard-ass American-rules Rugby.

2. Table Tennis beats all your sports.

Haha, you mean that sport here where they have practially no protection?

American Football:

Yes it does.

LOL ye they are all suited up like armored guards when playing american football. Rugby pwns it.

Also I fuking <3 table tennis and its kewl on the wii too.

By Hard-Ass, what I mean is that in Rugby, you can't scythe someone's legs out from under them, causing them to do a somersault and land on their heads, rather hard. They wear the protection for a reason...

Average American: F**K YOU IT'S FOOTBALL ***** DEAL WITH IT YA SILLY EUROPEAN AMERICA>ALL OF YOU

Me: Yeah we kinda stole the name dude

Rugby is american football on crack coke and anabolic steroids

That would liven up any sporting event a little methinks. Have flaming giant crossbows and ballistae shooting at the players on the field. At least one fatality guarenteed.

I second that. I hereby put forward the motion for a petition for this sport!

All in favor of this mega sport petition, please say now!

now!

And for every penalty, the person must have to take LSD!!!

I'm sure most Americans take LSD anyway...or steroids of some kind.

Rugby is pretty beast. That's another thing with US football. The insane amount of protection. When I play with my friends we tackle each other but don't wear padding. It's so fu**ing fun.

Table tennis wrocks but I suck at it..

You know what else rawks? Foosball!

Oh, and I like: Colts, Steelers, Giants(cause they stopped the damned patriots)

and I don't like: Patriots and Titans. I'll root for anyone against those two.

Bug you have the most amazing taste in football teams dude, I love the Steelers. Wish they did better this past season.

Oh, and a helpful hint: LSD slows down and alters your senses, it's pretty much the opposite of anabolic steroids. It's a psychadelic drug (or however you spell it)

I like how this topic suddenly became about sports in general

Hey, that's an even better idea! If someone causes a penalty, the offender has to fend off sharks in a handily located pool of water before he's let back onto the field! If not, he dies!

...while on trippy drugs and while wearing a bikini

Well the drugs I know most about are crack........... . . .anyways!

I'm not into watching sports so much anymore. I hate college "american" football, I only watch soccer when USA is playing, and I never watch basketball. (three main sports on ESPN right?)

You know what's funny? The Colts only lost two games right? I didn't watch ANY of their games except those two...
