Also, mind that it's only the US that mistakes football with crummy rugby play. It's your....i dunno 150-200 million american football fans against 1 billion+ true football fans. Who has more right to the "football" title :P ? |
More break time than Gameplay? Just because there is actual strategy and tactics in football doesn't make it boring. In fact, it makes it the greatest sport in the world. Tell me what sports have all of these: Strategy Athletisism People getting slammed into the ground and are completely team based. There are no stars in football. The game requires a team that plays perfectly together. Soccer is pure athletisism. There are tons of sports like that already (Baseball, Basketball, Tennis, etc.). American Football is by far the deepest sport in the world. I watch the World Cup, and I love Strikers Charged, but in general I would rather watch almost any sport above it. There are like 2 goals a game (in a good game) and they let people tie. WTF. | Please stop. You're not helping out with talking such utter crap about what each game has and does not have.That third point of yours? Now that is like SO stupid. One would think that to take a ball from someone you wouldn't have to jump on him as if you wanted to break every single bone in his body. How about taking the ball not through greater phisique, but through smart field play, technique and never touching the guy? No strategdy in football? Please. That's almost blasphemy you just spoke. I could go on and show you your "no star in teams" claim is total bs, but then again why should I. It would be better if you would just try to figure it out for yourself. Saves me the trouble. |
Oh, like an interception, blocked field goal, stripped ball, or an onside kick. Thanks for helping me with that.
I could list every player on the Colts starting offensive line, and tell you why they are important to the team. Sure, you could do the same in Soccer, but you only have to remember 5. I could list most of the defensive line too. There is a quarterback, but he's nothing without good recievers, blockers, and running backs. There are idiots who are arrogant and think they are everything in football just like in every sport in the world, but the good teams play well as a team, and don't have some shining star who takes the glory of the game for himself, rather than for the team.
Btw, that's a good point about the acting. I always loved watching that. Some of those people deserve oscars. I'll even give you that there is strategy in the game, and it's a bit harsh to say there is none, but not like in football. You don't have to manage the exact position on the field of 11 players at a time on each side. You aren't going to be able to change my mind about this Wojtas because unlike you I actually watch BOTH sports. Your knowledge is purely based on stereotypes.
