With regards to American [s]Rugby[/s] Football, I aint got a clue about all those numbers you talk about. I don't think I've ever seen a single game, for the simple reason of non-comprehension.



I hear that all the time. I've lived in the US all but two years of my life (the other two were in Italy) and I can not watch baseball or football (the US kind) because it's so boring. In baseball they just stand around waiting for something to happen. In Football they make one play and stand around while a call gets challanged or the comercial break is going on. You don't get that in Football (the real kind) and Rugby (my two favorite sports) but I go to work all the time and talk about how Arsenal is doing or how things are shaping up in the Rugby world cup and the most common response to what ever I have to say is "I've watched Soccer/Rugby once and didn't understand what was going on so I never watched it again"

I'm kind of going on a right now but no one was born knowing how things work, people may have been watching certain sports since before they can remember watching them but it was still a learning process. Don't just dismiss something because you don't know about it, learn about Football (the american kind) understand it, then dismiss it for being the most boring way you could possibly spend a sunday afternoon.

Let my dying thought be that every mile was fun and let my tombstone read,"They never made one fast enough for me."
