Whose football wins and why

[Ifreann]

Nobody wins. Sports are pointless and primal.

And yet make billions every year....

Because the ignorant masses are easily amazed and distracted by competitive stupidity.

Just because you do not value athleticism doesn't meant that those who do are ignorant nor are those in possession of it stupid.

People could do something more intellectually productive. Chess, is a fine example.

THat is completely false, some of the most intelligent men on the planet thoroughly enjoy sports.

Can't we all just get along like Reggie and David?

They both seemed like two people that really did not want to be there lol.

This is basically a personal preference argument between 94% of the US and the rest of the world, much like everything else is.

I prefer American football, but that's because I've grown up in the US (Actually, Nebraska, to be specific. Husker football is life here.)

Ah, so should everyone than fall in lock and step with not enjoying sports?

Sports is a way of escape. It also acts as a common interest that I can use to socialize and relate with others.

Plus, American Football has some of the richest sports franchises in the world, and thats just one country.

Lol.

Lol.

Meh, the Skins're the only team of those I care about in the slightest...Unless you count unmitigated hatred of Dallas anyway, >_>

hate to disappoint you , actually as a Cowboy fan I don't
Dallas Cowboys Top List of Most Valuable NFL Teams, Forbes Says
Forbes' annual analysis of pro football finds a quarter of the league's franchises worth less than they were last year.

*shrugs*, just makes me dislike them that much more...Hell, I'm actually rather proud my team isn't, >_>

[John Bang]

Frankly I'm not sure how the Americans have the audacity to even call it football,

Throwball perhaps, meatball maybe, football not really,

American football is all tactics and no skill, unless there's supposed to be some skill in running into another 6ft 3" 300lb brainless vegetable of muscle, it's a freak show,

The point of American football is to take any initiative away from the players, the less they think the better,

It's like comparing WWE to welterweight boxing,

football is the wuss' game.

Go rugby

Please, don't get me wrong, I think exercise and fitness is imperative. However, the people who engross themselves into sports events are pathetic. Spending hundreds of dollars for seats at a game or waste their lives in front of the television watching it is not healthy...

American football is actually a fail game just look at it. Football. You don't even use you foot ever and the ball is not even a ball it looks more like a deformed egg.

...

Rugby's a code of football.

[John Bang]

Regular Football= American Soccor. Hence the Foot in football!

P.S. Soccor is the number 1 sport worldwide...

But I'd go WWE any day! They have Diva's

This post is fail, as you actually are on your feet all the time, and kick quite often, and why would the shape of the ball stop it from being a ball?

Fail, as has already been demonstrated in this thread, the term football predates association football by some time...

Ah, but when I go to sporting events and watch said events, I usually do such with others, which makes my social life better. It's great fun.

Also, it gives me something to hope for. To root for a team, to watch them crawl their way to the top, to achieve greatness, it is a great joy. You would understand if you grew up in Nebraska. Husker football (American football) basically united this state in the 60s. Our love for Husker football is something we all have in common.

It may be, but rugby is much better than football. Plus the poster said "American football", and personally I've never seen American's playing rugby. I may be wrong though...

Actually, there was an article in my local paper yesterday about local high school rugby leagues on the rise in popularity. It's increasing in popularity, in fact, I think NBC is going to be showing a college rugby championship Saturday afternoon.

IIRC, American Football's based on Rugby, but, don't quote me on that.

Really, I don't think anyone can legitimately say another code is objectively better, it's a subjective statement, and these posts demeaning the others are just fail in that regard.
