I dont care about football

meh, i just cant handle the 30 seconds of play, minute and a half of organization after someone drops the ball/gets hit. Plus I live in Canada, and the CFL fuckin blows. I got free tickets to a live game but left during the 3rd quarter because i was bored as shit, and some guy that thought he was the shit kept yelling. But its funny to play really informally. Rugby is more the sport for me though.
 
I think it is how you look at it. If I'm over 100 miles away from human civilization in the middle of the trees skiing some pillows, I wouldn't exactly feel like a "sportsman."

Wheres the whistles and jerseys in that?
 
ok, so whenever your doing anything thats not in competition your not playing a sport. so what is it when your playing golf or skiing with your friends. if its not a ''sport'' than what is it>?
 
I don't know, an activity?

Why does everybody have the urge to categorize every fucking asset of their lives?
 
dont you ever talk to him like that. and skiing isnt a sport for a lot of people. it's a lifestyle, it's art, it's nature, it can be whatever you want it to be. even a sport if you so choose ;)
 
football is amazing! its so fun to follow i like every single team (though the vikings are my favorite) the NFL is just a blast from stupid players to the amazing power house teams to watching people like Ocho Cinco and hearing silly commentary from TO (best WR in the nfl) its just a blast though every sport is great, olympics, skiing, volleyball, baseball, tennis, football, soccer its all entertaining
 
...you dont like football?...i cant even imagine how you dont like watching people get sacked and then laughing at the losers who get so wasted they trip on the stairs and bleachers. and its even better when the cheerleaders fall or drop each other cause i hate them with a passion.
 
Amen brotha.

Also, GOOOOOO AMERICAN VALUES! IF YOU DONT LIKE IT, GET THE FUK OUT! WE'RE FUCKING AMAZING! LOOK AT ALL YOU OTHER COUNTRIES, LOOK AT YOU! GIVING EVERYONE FREE HEALTH INSURANCE, HA HA HA HA HA. LOOK AT HOW GREAT WE ARE COMPARED TO YOU! HOW COULD ANYONE NOT THINK WE'RE JUST THE SHIT!
 
Football is sweet and all but hockey is where its at.

Also everyone went crazy when Entity said something negative about America. I just lol'd at the responses.
 
American Football is boring..... always stopping and nothing seems to really happen except for a few plays for touchdowns.

Only good North American sports are baseball and hockey

Australian Football finals (playoffs) time atm, Grand Final (superbowl for you guys) is next weekend!!!
 
you guys are lame, football owns. I love playing and watching football, its by far the best sport
 
you guys are all super gay. seriously. when did NS become a gathering ground for a bunch of high school rejects and social outcasts.

anyway how could you not like the sport? There is no other sport in which all the players have such an incredible combination of brute strength, size, speed, agility, and hand-eye coordination. You wanna see an elite athlete? Look to the NFL's wide receivers or running backs. I guarantee you, you wont find another human being on earth with the same low body fat%, weight to strength ratio, speed, agility, and hand eye coordination.

not if you go to a big east school like say, syracuse, that sucks major cock and has no recruiting power and going to the carrier dome is the most miserable and unfun things ever. fucking cuse, fire everyone and start from scratch.
 
That doesnt make a sport any better. Or would you watch something like chess if these guys were playing (I know that was kind of weak...). And by the way i like football.

And also not everyone on NS is from US
 
soo true! I ski on every superbowl sunday, unfortunately the weather never seems to cooperate but i still have a blast
 
i think college football is straight because the players are playing for their school and not getting paid for it. the nfl is alright.. i just dont like alot of the players because they are so obnoxious. i can watch a few nfl games every sunday but def cant watch them all day like the majority of my friends.
 
missed south park allusion. it was a little outside of text i guess.

why can't you take me seriously after i crocheted a pair of slippers?
 
i got about 6 posts into this thread before I decided it was by far the worst thread I've ever seen on NS

GO SEAHAWKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
a lot of people who play in college got there on a scholarship, which is technically being paid to play. but yeah, i find that not only NFL players but a lot of professional athletes in general are very obnoxious.
 
douchebag? because someone doesnt like a sport, they are gay, hs reject, or a social outcast? i think someone has self confidence issues.

and you just fit the stereotypical american. in no way do i mean what im about to say, it is just a stereotype, so dont get me wrong. "how could you not like the sport?" "typical" american thing to say. everything you do is right, otherwise its not right and you are superior to everyone. how can't you like the sport? um because its not played anywhere else to get enough coverage to make it on regular tv?

sure strength, size, speed, agility, hand-eye coordination is important for this sport, and besides rugby which by the way is so much better than football and takes more athletisism and teamwork, no other sport has the same-ish combination. but if football is so tough, why do people get hurt so often? if players are so fast, why do they stop play and the clock every 15 seconds? if they're so good, why do they have 55 players on each team? why do they only play a very slim portion of the game?

you say an elite athlete is a running back or a wide receiver. frankly i think that a typical linebacker is much more of an athlete than either of the other two. they are generally stronger, maybe a little slower, bigger, pretty agile, and have good coordination. not only that, but to say the sport is the best because one specific position is good, doesnt make the whole sport superior to others.

all of this coming from a former football player and a big fan. you need to stop being so narrow minded and fitting into the "stereotypical american" that thinks he is always right and he is better than everyone. ever notice that very few countries play "american sports" and americans generally suck at more popular ones? baseball is growing, however football deffinately isnt.
 
If you like football then go ahead and enjoy it, I won't complain, its a cool sport and you should do what you like.

I like skiing so Im gonna instead of hatin on other people's sports Im gonna enjoy my own.
 
like i said in the post, im a football fan. i love the sport and i used to play. but if hes claiming that its soooo good and he doesnt understand why people dont like it, calling them gay and social outcasts, then i simply wanted him to explain thing to actual back up his argument because he just sounded like an idiot.

some of those questions i honestly do wonder myself. i mean, its part of the sport and all but still. no reason some of them cant play more than just offense, but its the way the games played. but no hate to football, just ignorant closeminded fans.
 
i agree, i dont care for any sports, skiing is my life. Also its very annoying when fans get pissed and say like he fucking sucks and im just thinking put yourself in that situation i would like to see you do better.
 
haha, yeah. i say that all the time though, i dont really mean it, it just means that im passionate and heated. I used to get frusterated all the time and be like "God Alexander you SUCK!", I usually do it in the privacy of my own living room though.

one play its "nice throw!"

the next its "god damnit hasselbeck, you suck, retire already!"
