Watched the first half of the Super Bowl. My God, how can people enjoy that? There's nothing exciting about touchdowns whatsoever. And the Super Bowl is supposed to be one of the biggest sport events of the year.

yawn

I did enjoy Any Given Sunday though.

I much prefer when nancy boys dance around a ball for three hours and no one scores a goal. Much more exciting. Go Futbol.

One time I did throw a foot ball for about half an hour with a friend of mine (trying to learn the technique) on the field next to my house, and it was fun actually. But no, never tackled anyone.

Yeah all the stoppages & commercial breaks in football make it difficult for me to watch. If I watch a game I need to record it first so I can skip through all the B.S. inbetween the actual gameplay.

I prefer golf. There are rarely any blacks, jews and women around. A football game is played by blacks, called on the TV by jews, all while your wife bitches that you haven't taken out the garbage yet. Fuck that.

Exactly, ad breaks galore.

What would happen if most americans had to watch a 90 minute football/soccer game with only one ad break in the middle?

Most people in the west these days never mind americans cant even watch a 90 minute movie without explosions and car chases every 5 minutes.

You would think with american money and nationalism the entire nation could get behind the football team for the world cup etc.

I'd have thought americans would rejoice in being able to kick an object at 80mph at a russian/north korean/chinaman/mexican in a net.

Same problem, but id love a proper american F1 team, we need lots of big players to even the sport out, its too boring and clinical these days.

The time issue sucks but we have the same problem here in the UK.

Re: I can't believe how boring American Football really is.
One of the reasons why soccer is so popular worldwide is because the world is an impoverished shithole for the most part. You can get cheap soccer balls in any country for a dollar and play in the street. For baseball you need a $60 glove, a $30 bat, a $5 ball.

What... 5% of the people in the world could afford that maybe? And that's the cheapest North American sport. The one you play when your dad is unemployed and cant afford $1000 worth of hockey equipment.
