I love that one:
:lol:

Ratz! Now I have to change my vote away from Drebbel.

I would vote for myself "NEON DEON".

But, since almost everyone else has voted for himself, I will be a bit different and vote for.............................

NeonSamurai ;)

Well you're all wrong, cos he made that post right after I wrote that thing about Germany hosting the World Cup. So it's either a big coincidence or it's me. :)

You should know that any comments about the world cup could be construde as hostile to ones country or worse, to ones own self! :p Never quite understood all the emotions about a game.

-S

Yep its me :rock:

Oh wait it cant be as im a moderator too :damn:

Go to a football stadium...then you might understand more. I took many people who hated football to begin with and are now fanatics. Lots of females too....though some of them got hooked on watching the "good looking" players. :lol: :roll:

No...football is very much like sex. I swear it is...very similar emotions...though for it to be so you have to have some sort of connection with the team...i.e. your country or local town.

Look at this:

2 million people were in front of this player (Francesco Totti)...2 million...I have it on tape....30 billion watched the world cup on TV. 30 billion people. The population on Earth 5 times over. There is a reason you know? Not liking football is like saying you've never experienced an orgasm. You definitely are missing something. ;)

Meh. Soccer = boring in my book. Isn't this stuff supposed to be confined to it's own special thread?

Americans don't understand excitement...boring. haha...you never see people yawning at football matches like you do in baseball. :roll: All American sports are like an anti-climax...meaning there is no climax. Stop-start affair. Just made to brainwash people into buying products from all the advertising that goes on.

I pity Americans...I really do. Because they are the only ones who've never experienced what football means. Tough luck...your loss. :up:

Yeah basketball is just like that... :roll:

Gadzooks!:o

I now withdraw my vote for NeonSamurai and change it to Kurushio.:ping:

Unless. He is a moderator too. :damn:

I change my vote based on Kurushio’s past statements and my belief that soccer fans take the sport way too seriously.:roll:

Most sports fans do. "Past statements" :lol:

Basketball is a load of tosh. It's the fourth most popular sport in the US after baseball, handball (aka NFL), Ice Hockey....and basket ball is the most unpopular sport on the planet. And there's a reason. Apart from that silly sport being prejudiced to freaks of nature (if you're not a giant, you can't play), you also have the fact that these freaks can easily reach the hoop without tip-toeing...so where's the skill in that? :roll: And then basketball resembles ping-pong. It's a STUPID sport. Why not just play the last minute cos that's what it always comes down too....you reach 58 seconds where it's 102-101...or 98-98 or if it's really one-sided 95-98 :roll:.

Stupid stupid sport....and very pointless apart from boring. Just another version of ping-pong.

p.s. Isn't NBA having financial problems because nobody watches it? :lol:

It's like a virgin saying "..men take sex way too seriously" :roll:

If you never experience it...you don't know what you are missing. Football is the perfect game. It's continuosly physical and athletic...you know, no fat 40 year old bastard like Barry Bonds...once you reach 30 in football...you are almost over...because you can't keep up. Controlling a ball with your feet is very hard and you need a lot of skill....not like NFL where they just throw a rugby ball at each other....any person with two arms can throw for Gods sake. :roll: No ridiculously high scores lik or basketball or NFL for that matter....goals are hard to score...you need great skill and team participation...and when they come...the adrenaline surge is incredible...pity you'll never know.

There is a reason why billions follow football (soccer) as opposed to the American sports. :roll:

I see I voted wisely. ;)
