Why I love America

[Robert_S]

Robert S, Us red-blooded Americans are not going to take any shit about American football being the superior sport. That other sissy game is designed for girls and guys who can "bend it like Beckham." ("Bend it like Beckham" is a reference to his dick, right?) Real men play real football! OK, I hope that settles that once and for all.

I actually watch neither.

I hate American football. Its sooooo boring.

Oh that's just 'cause you're from Michigan and the teams up there all suck.

Twoflower, My mistake, I didn't realize that you live in Michigan. From what I can tell, you'd still look cute in a cheerleader's outfit.

Actually, I have a soft spot in my heart for Michigan. I once spent a weekend in Ann Arbor, and got laid twice. A few weeks later, I spent a night in Columbus, and didn't get any action at all. The girl in Michigan was named Kathy. There can't be more than a couple of Kathys in Michigan, right? If you run into her, tell her LaMont remembers her fondly.

Seems like in American football they spend more time getting ready to play than actually play. And, soccer players on the whole are a much sexier and better looking bunch - if Beckham wants to bend it for me I will have no complaints.

You get to burn a lot of gasoline, drive to eat ice cream, drink diet soda and eat french fries. What more can you ask for?

maiforpeace, To each his or her own. I notice that even sandinista, who wants to destroy capitalism, says he loves the National Football League. Yo, sandinista, don't you realize that football is one of the opiates of the masses, a tool to lull the oppressed working classes into a drugged-out, non-thinking state?

One of the things about capitalism and other parts of American culture is that it is very sneaky. First, you want to destroy America. Then, you start liking football. Next thing you know, you're a registered Republican.

Tero, I'll take a 60" HD TV to go with the rest of that stuff, a 56' Chevy and some Buddy Holly, Muddy Waters, Merle Haggard and Aretha, etc.

By the way, I think that real Americans drink real Coke or Pepsi. Only the type of people who like soccer drink those nasty diet drinks.

Of course I realize that. I may be a godless commie but I still like to toast Charger TD's with a shot of tequila. You're also very correct that american culture is sneaky. Same way religion is sneaky, tries to brainwash the young and promise shiny things. As you get older, seeing through it becomes increasingly easy though. As for the football/american (they play football in canaduh too) football "debate", both are great IMO!

Over and over again 90min is not two hours ..How long does Merkin footbal last for ? or baseball ? and most of the time they are not doing anything

Rugby is a sport far more like Merkin football ,I notice that Football (soccer) gets slagged off lots, I agree it sucks ,so next world cup don't send a team

All that preparation of merkin football actually leads to scoring. In that way, it's kinda like taking a shower and combing your hair before you go out.

The main reason we'll send off a team because that's fewer people playing soccer here.

PS: One of the other things I love about America is that we play real football here, and football season is upon us

Like this? Or are you on about the game where a bunch of morbidly obese Americans roll around in the mud with each other? That isn't football, that's gay ball.

You might want to take another look at the picture that you posted.

Talk about gay...

[Twoflower]

Twoflower, I still think you're cute. Do they have cheerleaders for soccer games? If you have grown up in America, you probably would have run around in one of those cute, little cheerleader outfits. That's another reason why I love America. From what I can tell, there are hot women all over the globe, and, thankfully, America has its fair share.

The one thing I dislike more than football is cheerleaders.
