Rugby anyday. Rugby World cup 2011.

Trouble with soccor is to many hollywood injuries where they scream murder after getting hit in the calf muscle where 99.9% of the time the injury that has cause them to roll over the false grass screaming for their mummy NEVER happened, faking injuries for their team is now what that game is all about! I can't stand the game. Only time i seem interested is when its NZ v Aus.

Thus - only Hockey, real (aka AMERICAN) Football, and Auto Racing qualify as real sports.

Hockey being the 1 from the three.:D

Soccer players are a bunch of no talent drama queens. Don't believe me? See for yourself:

Yea because all it takes is a measly Cuba to whoop your butt in another one of your national sports, baseball. :DL

CaptainHaplo 01-13-10 07:40 PM

For once OTH - you and I agree - Cuba could beat the snot out of the US in baseball - oh wait - if all the cubans had to play for cuba - could the US even field a team?

"America's pastime" = watching a bunch of people with hard to pronounce names find ways to waste time on a baseball diamond.....

No wonder its audience - both live and on tv - has dropped steadily over the years.

Not to mention the whole steroid issue....

So true. Cant say I've never been a football fan, but the acting has gone way too far in the past years. Hell, I grade football to the level of show wrestling. :nope:

Dood we call it "soccer", you can call it anything you want in your own language.

Haplo: Those "Cuban" MLB players are mostly American citizens. Immigrant nation here, remember?

Seriously though, any injury in the NFL, fake or real, costs the "victims" team a valuable time out. Therefore most of the drama queen stuff is kept off the field, where it should be.

How many EXTRA time outs do they get in addition to all that time of rubbing each others butts in the circle?

Too much dead time in handegg. Dull. Boring. Dumb.

Extra time outs? By that statement I have to wonder if you've even ever seen a football game.

I feel the same way about soccer.

I wonder how many of you football fans remember this infamous shot of Vinnie Jones and a young Paul Gascoine :DL
