I hate to break it to you guys, but football [American, not the good stuff] is just a masterminded marketing ploy. I mean come on guy; they wear so much armor it must feel like the snow is falling when you get tackled. I can't believe that you can sit down after it just gets back from another commercial with Terrel Owens (who gives a fuck if I spelled that right, if you do, you're gay) and you see the kickoff - about 8 seconds of play, then they go to a break again. What the hell is going on here? This is supposed to be a sport! Not it is seriously the other way around from a normal TV show. Instead of 12, 13 minutes of show, then 3 or 4 minutes of commercials, it's the other way around. 2 minutes of show, and 7 minutes of commercials.
Has America royally fucked everything up? I remember during the Olympics when they were showing soccer on NBC I think. They would go to break during the play! That's just pathetic. For some reason Europe has gotten along just fine without doing that, which is why I love it over there. No drinking age, no smoking age (at least I think there isn't one) and nobody give a fuck. The only problem that I have with you Europeans is that when I was in Spain and Italy, (not England, so don't get mad at me you Britons) the dudes wore capris....

It just like soccer in your country, dipshit. It's better than the bullshit politics that are on every other channel in the US.

Come on. You could do a lot beter with this point.
I do agree with the marketing stuff.. haven't they changed the game to accomodate advertising bullshite.. I am a little ignorant on the subject though. Due to it being one of the dullest sports i've ever seen.

I guess if you want you can play rugby, that is if you like only tackling people from the waist down like a pussy.
This sentence just screams "I have never played rugby and have no fucking idea what Im talking about.
What is the point?

I agree. Its like playing chicken in tanks... with seatbelts.
For a real mans sport nothing beats Australian Rugby League. See example;
A guy opens a 5 inch gash on his forehead. Instead of being subbed off, they take him to the sideline and use a MEDICAL STAPLER to quickly put a dozen stitches in. UNfortunately, halfway through the 'operation' the stitcher jams to his head. While trying to remove it, the entire internal mechanism of the device comes out and just hangs from this guys wound. Still gushing blood, they decide to sub so play can continue...
Oh yeh and ice hockey too, i saw that guy get his throat cut, that was bloody awesome.
Oh yeah and learn to write.
