joke post?
In my opinion, americans enjoy sissy sports that are afraid of contact:
Basketball - I liked playing basket at physical education back in highschool, but it's a bit boring to watch. It's not a very dynamic sport, it's tactically limited and not very fast with serious symptoms of stopclock-o-litis. No contact whatsoever.
American football - The players are afraid of getting sued so they wear big equipment that will save their pocket money, and are so out-of-shape that need to stop the clock everytime something happens(joke). Serious now, Rugby is simply faster and has alot of real contact, how can american football beat that?
Baseball - No contact whatsoever and definitely slow paced. But to be honest it's the main american sport that I respect the most.
Ice Hockey - I like this one, but it's not as fast as rink hockey and there's no real contact.
