just like Cricket is real baseball and Curling is real sweeping!
I like the soccer better...
i like college football slightly better b/c it's unpredictable
Chiefs also,the only bad news in football now,is the Eagles hired Vick,the only job he should have got was a dog catcher,without the net
Please don't tell me your surprised.

Quote from: american lockpicker on August 14, 2009, 03:41:09 AMI like the soccer better... Girls play soccer. Soccer is a game, not a sport. The difference between a game and a sport is that, eventually, you WILL get hurt playing sports. Quotei like college football slightly better b/c it's unpredictableI don't know if I like it better but I do love college football. Especially the SEC and Big 12 conferences. These games seem to have more of those corn fed farm boys and the games get vicious. QuoteChiefs also,the only bad news in football now,is the Eagles hired Vick,the only job he should have got was a dog catcher,without the netI'm a little upset that Vick is back but Tony Dungy(who I admire greatly) says he is really sorry so we'll see. I'll tell you what really pisses me off. What Michael Vick was bad but what Donte Stallworth did was much worse. He friggin KILLS someone and spends less time in prison than Vick, and there was no public uproar or nothing. I guess killing dogs is a worse crime in this country than killing a person.
Yep...soccer's a sport
QuoteYep...soccer's a sportNo it's not. I said the difference is that you WILL get hurt in a sport. Hell I got a fish hook imbedded in my thumb one time fishing but that doesn't make it a sport. Hell, just like everyone else in the world I played soccer when I was a kid. Did I ever get hurt? Nope. Have I ever got hurt playing football? Of course, Hockey? Well I'm too far south to plat real hockey but I got hurt plenty times playing gym hockey in high school.
Maybe your accident prone? Like me. Hell I dislocated my shoulder trying to pick up a cat one time. (I swear to God that's the truth) LOLHoly crap, picking up cats is a sport!!!!!
OK I'll compromise. Soccer is a sport, we'll even call it a dangerous sport. A dangerous girls sport.
But back to football...I just never really understood it
QuoteBut back to football...I just never really understood itI think the attraction is that it's a lot like war. Organized chaos. Ground vs air attack. Small and speedy forces vs large but slow forces. You're object on offense is to break through the line however possible. Your job on defense is to prevent it. In an instant you can change from offense to defense. Your attack can go wrong and suddenly it's up to you, despite being a primarily offensive player, to stop them. People get hurt, HUGE collisions between guys who are as large as cars. Men twice your size who can outrun all but the fastest track and field stars. The drama, pain, stories on and off the field etc etc. It may not be everyone's favorite sport but I LOVE it. God I love it. Pee-wee, high school, college or pro, it matters not. All that matters is that you win. A lot of people have issues with it "starting and stopping" all the time but really think about it. What's a great thing to do when watching sports. Drink beer, what does drinking beer make you do? Pee. If you're watching a game that never stops chances are when you pee you're gonna miss something. Not so with football.
Bears win! yeeeees their gonna kill the game with these stupid rules!(Image removed from quote.)
Alright, my Bears are 3-1 (only loss is to the Packers....grrr but we'll get at Soldiers Field) with tomorrow (today) game between the Packers and the Vikings! YaY (Image removed from quote.)their gonna mash, erase, kill each other! (which will help the Bears)Honestly I hope no one gets hurt
the thing about soccer is that everbody is always running around... their always running.... and falling down... nobody around them and they fall down. and blame it on someone across the field.... i hate that. i do like the world cup though, looking forward to next year. for some odd reason peaple fall down more during the world cup. the paine and suffering must truly be unbarable. yet, somehow they manage to pop back up and continue to run on an obviously broken leg, foot and ankle. these guys are truly super human
lol truly Soccer (real Football) is the "Worlds Game" but here in the usa we don't get exposed to itlike the rest of the world (u third worlders j/k) at least when I was a kid we weren't.but do you have cheerleaders scantily clad, jumping around?
