    American football would be much more exciting if the shoulderpads had big, rusty metal spikes on them. And the players killed each other. All the time. Like Bloodbowl. That'd be awesome. I'd watch the sport.

    go post the links in the other stupid forum on football you started. that way we wont have to look at two stupid threads, only one.

    Uh.. huh. That's why you replied right? Do you even realise how stupid you are? (obviously not) . You have passion and fire,but don't let it burn you up completely. You need to be more suave like me(well most of the time..err or sometimes..I do lose my temper alot, but I try not to personally insult if I can help it :lol:). Be easy until you know someone. You didn't have to outburst at her that bad. Be straightforward just don't gloat too hard when you make a good point...talking about your post in the "9/11 was planned" thread were you and I both agree. :)

    American football is abit poncy, ive never understood the need for pads and a break every five minutes. Its not as though the game was designed to be played by pensioners or anything... :?
  11. Rocker KidSalvaged from archive22 Jun 2006, 14:29
    I have to agree Rex. I don't know what poncy is but I do agree that we don't need so many pads and so many flags and breaks and calls. Though I do love the Chicago Bears! Fantastic D-Fence! My home team! yay.....

    More scoring in American football. Makes it more exciting than watching a 77 min game that maybe gets one goal..

    rofl, there is 90 minutes, plus stoppage, plus overtime which can be 30 min, plus shootouts. and if you dont think they score enough in soccer, then please watch Italy vs France, 2006 World cup game
  19. babadiSalvaged from archive13 Jul 2006, 16:58
    personally i like american football more scoring but is there really any point in arguing this? different people like different things. oh and there is a canadian and a euroleague
  20. Cymru am bythSalvaged from archive17 Jul 2006, 05:04
    american football is crap, you get the same big hits in rugby league with much less padding and the same big hits in rugby union with NO padding
  21. babadiSalvaged from archive17 Jul 2006, 12:09
    well most of em dont weigh 350 pounds in rugby if you had no pads in american football the recievers runnings backs and all other small positions would be crushed and injured. so i say i WANT the fucking padding if im gonna go play american football with big guys like that.
  22. FXfighterSalvaged from archive17 Jul 2006, 14:39
    cool first video, but the music was for faggs. I agree soccer needs more fighting. I like soccer better than American football since you get to fight with other fans.
  23. Cymru am bythSalvaged from archive3 Sept 2006, 18:31
    check out these tackles from various rugby league games (note that they have hardly if any padding) http://media.putfile.com/Rugby-League-Video-BIG-hits70
  24. AllisterFiendSalvaged from archive3 Sept 2006, 18:43
    I prefer to watch and play american football better... you dont see a difference between that video and this one? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pMZM4tr_vVU lol
  25. Rocker KidSalvaged from archive3 Sept 2006, 19:46
    My bro played on a local rugby team a couple years ago. He said they weren't as big as American-style football players but all-in-all it was fun.... got a cool rugby shirt for being on the team :lol: Yeah I prefer American Football myself I have some serious roots with The Chicago Bears and The Chicago Bulls (basketball)
  26. dereck1151Salvaged from archive3 Sept 2006, 23:55
    i played american football for my highschool and i dont have a biased opinion cuz i play for fun rugby with my friends but i agree with babadi in rugby the player arnt as heavy as they are in american football lets take a player from my team the pittsburge steelers one of our centers Chris Kemoeatu weights 344 LBs and he is 6'03" idk much about rugby but iv seen the videos iv watched a few games and none of them look as big as this guy and im sure there is heavier aswell what you see on the television and what happens on the field is a different matter from personal experience theres more then just the qb gets the ball and such
  27. Cymru am bythSalvaged from archive4 Sept 2006, 07:15
    more big hits, this time from rugby union with no pads http://video.google.co.uk/videoplay?docid=654698397590658…
  28. QuackersSalvaged from archive4 Sept 2006, 07:20
    I agree soccer needs more fighting. I take it you have never seen football hooligans? It has enough fighting imo.
  29. Cymru am bythSalvaged from archive4 Sept 2006, 07:23
    and check out this guy, jonah lomu, a new zeland winger built like a prop forward 6 foot 5 inches tall, 273 pounds and can run 100 metres in 10.8 seconds http://video.google.co.uk/videoplay?docid=-71366197892342… http://video.google.co.uk/videoplay?docid=777837082769180… http://video.google.co.uk/videoplay?docid=-22877200939329…

    Without wanting to rain on your parade Cymru, American Football is known to be an all-round harsher game than Rugby -- no matter how many big-ass Kiwis you throw into the mix.
  31. Tho-MliASTERSalvaged from archive4 Sept 2006, 11:55
    I agree that American Football is more rough than rugby. But I still enjoy rugby a hell of a lot more
  32. dereck1151Salvaged from archive4 Sept 2006, 18:38
    More scoring in American football. Makes it more exciting than watching a 77 min game that maybe gets one goal.. the excitement isnt just from that you also get the excitment when your team that you choose to cheer for makes a fantastic 30 yard pass for the winning or tieing TD (touchdown) or there already in the lead and the opposing team is 4th and inches and they need that TD to tie for overtime those seem more exciteing to me when the score gets lopsided i turn to another game becuz then theres no point you know who wins
  33. FarelliSalvaged from archive15 Oct 2006, 03:35
    i like how everyone forgot all about football(soccer) after 10 posts. i like american football better though but my heart will always belong to nascar

  36. gayblackjesusSalvaged from archive20 Nov 2006, 21:43
    oh yes...football sucks...rugby is so much better and tougher because they don;t wear pads.... stupid fucking idiots if anything its the other way around....if football players didnt wear padding the average career life would be 1 game...they have to wear that much padding because these are the best athletes in the world and an average tackle from one of them can kill and average man ur stupid fucking rugby players don't wear pads because it isnt 1/4 as tough as football with that said..i don't like the nfl...i love college football...the sport itself is great

    I hate all sports, unless they include scantily clad woman as in volleyball or tennis, or oddly enough, golf balls. Watching sweaty men slap each other on the ass and play with balls just doesn't do it for me.
  38. ColziSalvaged from archive21 Nov 2006, 12:17
    Watching sweaty men slap each other on the ass and play with balls just doesn't do it for me. heh heh heh hysterics never thought about it in that way before :shock: Look, i love football ( soccer) and adore rugby its just raw passion ( or male t male contact as Shawmutt would put it :lol: ) When i was on my hols last year in Canada i went t see the Toronto Blue Jays - i doubt i'll ever love the sport but i loved the atmosphere brilliant to say ive been to a ball game :lol: Anyways -i want to watch a NFL game, but fact is rugby is tougher and harder otherwise they wouldnt were pads! I would pay a stupid amount of money to see the best of rugby v the best of american football 8) the world rugby team would no doubt kick ass! as a sidenote Englands Martin- Johnson asked one of NFLS top players if he wanted a game sometime the rugby lot were up for it the NFL player declined ! WIMP! :wink:

    Soccer is queer. Dont bump into me, or you'll get a "yellow card". GHEY. Best thing about soccer? The announcer guy screaming "gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooal". Other than that, I would rather watch myself piss.

    Come on now. How can I guys in uniform and protection gear be as tough guys in normal situations. When Welsh rugy guys fight English guys we don't need armour. Why do Americans fight with all that gross armour on. You fight like three year olds who need an extra two wheels on their first bikes. Come on bee MEN you whossieess!
