cricket is just plain boring, same with baseball. ive always said that if the action in american football flowed alot more like rugby. then the game would be better. i dont like watching the game being stopped every 5 minutes followed by watching the teams discuss tactics,tactics which should be discussed before the game. its just pure boring and there is not much excitement like in soccer where you can watch club and country take each other on in many gripping, tense and exciting games.
Agreed about coaches, it takes all the skill of changing a game plan away from the players, its pathetic

He was as good at playing as he is at acting ! Did you know he's going to play Juggernaught in X3 ?
Someone who works with my dad whent to school with him, apparently he was complete Tw@t (suprise, suprise).

England did produce some fine pro wrestlers. Football sucks anyway. Full of rapists and druggies over here in good ole england. And who cares bout rugby?!? Its a medieval melee with the weapns taken out. At least in the staes wiht padding you wont get your balls crushed. Whats the point of this thread? Im proud of being english but why broadcast it? And Deano your prediction about the volcano wasnt true. Sop list5neing to scaremongers. Stuff like that is why our lands in such a state.

be proud--better yet, use proper English!
Hate to burst your bubble, but there's a reason football/soccer isn't a mainstream sport in in the US--because not enough people like it. Now explain to me why we should be jealous that your country won a championship for a sport we don't all that much enjoy?
And before any of you soccer fans jump on my back, yes, I will acknoweledge that there is a large amount of soccer fans in the US. But there're more people who just don't care.

wait is this still on american football and rugby? anyway i lyk american football but the players don't even think on their feet, they are told to do a sidestep so thats what they do, ****in idiots......and after they make a big hit they stop and ***** on about how good they are whereas in rugby ud have 2 get up and tackle another huge monster.....plus theres little tempo in american football- but of course i do lyk nfl cos its kinda like watching a movie seeing as how it drags on 4 sooooo long.
