Capatalize!?!? Who's trying to capatalize? Americans, that's who. Football (the real kind) has been being played since the 1100's and we're trying to capatalize?!?!?

Let's see those fat @$$ line men run up and down the pitch for 90 min, let's see most (american) football players do more than 30 seconds worth of work before they take a break, it dosen't happen!
Let my dying thought be that every mile was fun and let my tombstone read,"They never made one fast enough for me."
