    Hahahaha, well that is why you guys only really play your own domestic sports. Rest of the world kicks ass though.

    In fact, the USA has a pretty decent footie team which is encouraging and my team Everton has an American goalkeeper Tim Howard. Oh how I love chanting "USA! USA! USA!" when he makes a save. Aaaah. I think it really is a shame that you guys aren&#39;t into the same sports as the rest of the world because America could have a really great rugby team, football team and cricket team (although cricket is like.....y&#39;know....bleurgh... baseball but for five days...).[/b]
    Only baseball is more internationaly popular than rugby or cricket. Niggas in Japan, Canada, and Central and South America love our national past time.

    Russians and northern Europeans love hockey. Stop being such a westerneurocentric!

    Basketball and volleyball are also pretty popular world wide, with basketball really breaking through in eastern Europe and China. Both were invented in my hometown, OH SNAP!

    They can&#39;t. They&#39;ve lost a game.

    Brew, shut up. It&#39;s a fun game to watch. So what if you don&#39;t like it? No one cares. Let people enjoy what they like.

    It&#39;s not fun, it&#39;s fuckin boring. Unless you like watching adverts. Then it&#39;s fuckin brilliant. If you watch footie online and you&#39;ve got a bad connection so it keeps on stopping for aminutes at a time and then you get a tiny snippet of action then you know what it&#39;s like to watch American football. People can indeed enjoy what they like and I generally won&#39;t care. You don&#39;t pretend that American Football is good and I won&#39;t pretend that John Claude Van-Damme films are actually any good. We can both enjoy them but they are both shit.
    The broad masses of a nation are always more easily corrupted in the deeper strata of their emotional nature than consciously or voluntarily; and thus in the primitive simplicity of their minds they more readily fall victims to the big lie than the small lie, since they themselves often tell small lies in little matters but would be ashamed to resort to large-scale falsehoods. It would never come into their heads to fabricate colossal untruths, and they would not believe that others could have the impudence to distort the truth so infamously. Even though the facts which prove this to be so may be brought clearly to their minds, they will still doubt and waver and will continue to think that there may be some other explanation. For the grossly impudent lie always leaves traces behind it, even after it has been nailed down, a fact which is known to all expert liars in this world and to all who conspire together in the art of lying. These people know only too well how to use falsehood for the basest purposes... Adolf Hitler

    HA HA HA!!! That&#39;s what I thought about soccer. I mean... they have advertising EVERYwhere, on their jerseys and all over their fields. How is that any better? We DVR football usually, so... we don&#39;t get too many commercials, but commercials are a part of watching TV, so I don&#39;t get the big difference.

    Yeah, the fact that there are static adverts all around football grounds is shit and I personally hate shirt-sponsorship but the actual games don&#39;t break for adverts and you only get commercials at half time when there&#39;s no sport hapenning.

    Incidentally, on the BBC there are no commercials whatsoever.

    But... here...in America... we&#39;ve ALWAYS watched commercials, so... it doesn&#39;t bother us so much... and if it does, we can pay extra to have that little part removed. Do you guys have DVR there, so that you can pause your shows and fast forward through stuff?

    As crazy as this might sound, Id like the Giants to lose another game or two before heading into the playoffs. I think it would make them better.

    Well if you don&#39;t mind watching adverts then that&#39;s great. I personally hate them and can&#39;t stand the idea of being advertised to in my own home. But that&#39;s just me. And yes we have services over here where you can pause live TV and all that stuff. It just sucks when advertising becomes so important that a sport can actually be made to fit around advertising schedules. Booooo!

    Edit: Just to make it clear. I don&#39;t care if anybody likes this sport. Go ahead and get all the enjoyment out of it you can. But I don&#39;t like it and if I want to say as much and maybe say why, then that&#39;s cool too. Let&#39;s all just spread the love.

    It&#39;s cool to have your own opinion, but if you don&#39;t like advertisements, then just fast forward through them... DUH!

    Anyway... I was really disppointed to see the Titans lose this past weekend. I don&#39;t even particularly like the Titans... just VY, but I thought it was kinda cool to watch a team that hasn&#39;t performed very well over the past 4 years go undefeated for so long.

    It&#39;s not really a &#39;duh&#39; thing because I don&#39;t care enough about TV to go and get a subscription to a satelite service and then pay more for a box which lets me pause TV. My solution to the advert problem is to just not watch TV as a general rule because TV does indeed suck 99% of the time. Anway, how do you fast forward adverts if you&#39;re watching live TV?
