Actually, baseball was first described in a British book called 'Polly's Pretty Little Pocket Book'...
And World Series? You don't let any other countries play in it!
And equipment is no substitute for skill. And by skill I don't mean being fat enough to be a wall that twenty other slightly less fat guys can't get through during your frantic eight seconds of gameplay set between the two minutes of getting your breath back.
For the record, I hate 'soccer' or Football as it's correctly known, but I can appreciate the skill and athleticism required.
Still, whatever you say about Americans, you guys did give us Anna Faris and Natalie Portman. :)
Giles once said: "I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby."
You are a retard. Soccer or real Football was invented in England. Its originally a European sport that the rest of the world adopted. You are so ignorant to describe soccer athletes as not talented. I'd like to see you have the physical endurance to keep up 90 minutes of non-stop running coordinating , team work ,and putting your body without any protection on the line. American football is a bunch of giant gorrilla looking "athletes" who are out of shape and wearing tons of protection and running into each other. and then a 3 minute break to count the yards..lame..and Baseball..don't get me started. Soccer is an international sport for a reason and it is huge all over the world because its more than just a sport is a culture. You know the FIFA WORLD CUP..its the whole world actual countries all nations are watching. What is a baseball world series?? are you kidding? world series? its two cities playing! America is not the world! Read more books, travel more, open your brain, the world is a big place.
I can't stand football myself. But how the hell can you call American football real football. Have you ever seen rugby? Yes it's the same as American football, but without all the crappy protection. Rugby is for real men, your poor excuse for football is for little girls.
When you can invent a sport the rest of the world can play, you might be taken seriously. Not much concept of a national team cos you don't play any sport which requires you to HAVE one in any sport, save ICE Hockey and basketball, both of which were invented by other countries.
So you think football is boring because sometimes teams don't score?
The fact is that 'the 'rest of the world' doesn't watch American football because it's way too easy to score..
Scoring a goal in football takes far more effort than hoofing the ball forward, and hoping someone catches it and goes clear..
American football is just too fucking simple..
While in terms of scoring, American football may be comparable to rugby, the fact is that American football is actually a bastardisation of rugby played by huge men who are in fact huge pussies who can't play without protective gear..
Though I don't really appreciate rugby, I respect the full-blooded, uninhibited chaos that characterizes the sport..
American football: the best sport in the world?? No fucking way..
In addition, you're wrong about the time it takes to play a football match..
The average time it takes to complete an NFL game, with the timeouts and breaks etc is around 200 minutes..
A football match is played in 2 45-minute halves, with a half-time break of about 15 minutes in between and usually between 4-6 minutes of stoppage time usually played at the end.. (around 109-111 minutes in all).. This leaves far more time for booze and having a great time after the game..
In my opinion, though there are quite a few reasons to hate American football, such as the momentum-breaking timeouts during the games, the overgrown pussies who play them, the number of players who are ex-cons and shouldn't be the role models of children, the widespread usage of steroids and drugs, etc, the most irritating thing about American football is the number of self-important morons the sport has as fans who constantly bitch about real football..
The next time you try to diss a sport, try to diss one in which your national team is actually good at..
Wow, all the sensitive pussy Brits came out of the wood work for this one. They sure get their feelings hurt easy while calling other people pussies. How ironic. Soccer is boring, just like England.
The superbowl is the most watched sporting event in the world. Soccer will always be in the superbowls shadow. Get over it. Just like all you yellow teeth wanks flock to this American site.
The FIFA World Cup is actually the most watched sports event in the world because the WORLD is watching it. And it lasts 110 min, unlike american football which lasts HOURS, its boring, they're all wearing protection b/c they're pussies. But of course Americans cant play soccer, theyre all freakin overweight.
This is great, not a SINGLE person mentioned anything about the half naked women sprawled before them. Everyone's got their panties in a bunch about sports which all are boring to begin with. You're ALL pussies.
I guess I'm just going to throw this out there seeing as I'm South African and we are the current world champions... but god, isn't rugby a great sport!?! haha ;)

The real football (the one you call soccer) is more than a sport. Americans don't understand it, because you lack the passion to do it.
You have never experienced anything like this in your life: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9twlmSbR2uk
When you go to a game, all you see is fat farts, sitting, drinking beer and chanting "defence, defence" like girls.

How is baseball not boring?
And a Canadian invented basketball, captain.

7) soccor/football was invented in africa actually
someone told me that, and if it's wrong don't shoot me.
anyways todd - american football is just an excuse for a group of horny men to jump on each other and "tackle"
real football (or soccer) is about skill ;)
By anonymous, on August 28, 2009 07:34:15
"American" football was actually invented in Canada. The Toronto Argos are the oldest pro football team in the world.

Even stupid Brits know the only way to make soccer even remotely interesting is to get some broad with giant tits to pose with soccer equipment.

American football is by far the worst game I have ever seen. I would list Chess and Japanese Shogi before listing that carp as sport.

'American football' is just rugby (an English game) only your guys are pussies and have to wear armour and helmets lol!
Baseball is just rounders and is fucking boring.
A 0-0 draw can happen in football, and you're right, you Yanks can't take it, because your attention spans are too short.
Football is the best sport in the world no question. You guys don't like it 'cause you're shite at it.
