  1. When are people going to realise that football is not soccer, it is football..? No american football shit, football is and should be known globally as football. One day maybe.. :rolleyes:
     
  2. its called futbol son. get it right
     
  3. Are you sad enough to care?
     
  4. A bit i guess..
     
  5. hah american football will always be better than SOCCER, european leagues are probably one of the most boring things to watch next to public broadcasting


    :smoke:
     
  6. haha :rolleyes: each to their own i guess, this is what should have the name American Football:

    Sweet Goal: Portland Timbers Vs. Sporting Kansas City [VIDEO]
     

  7. different countries have different prefs so no offense to soccer/football, that goal was sick tho, wish I didn't have to watch an hour of nothing to witness it tho :smoke:
     
  8. Haha yeah, I get where you're coming from but thats what I like about the sport, it takes skill, concentration and teamwork to score a goal and stop the other team from scoring. It might take a while to happen but when it does its boss. :D
     
  9. Guess who called it soccer first?

    The British.
     
  10. Just researched it like I should have to start off with and you are correct. We learn something new every day :smoke:
     
  11. American soccer is gonna take over, as well as European basketball. Cultural flip is coming December 2012. :smoke:
     
  12. David Beckham and Thierry Henry both play for american teams, whether thats just when the european season finishes I don't know but I've seen their teams play eachother. The american leagues might get more money put into them but I don't mind to be honest, it means that more people have the chance to play.
    African Ice Hockey coming after that? :rolleyes: (Just got reminded of Cool Runnings) :smoke:
     
  13. I'm glad we got Beckham to bring hype to American soccer well after he was relevant too. :)
     
  14. Exactly, its a good way to get interest in the sport though, by putting big name footballers into the american football leagues people are going to take more notice.
     
  15. Yeah, I wanna appreciate soccer. I've been watching more of it, once I get the hang of it I'm definitely going to enjoy it a lot more.
     
  16. Best player in the world now, imo, is Lionel Messi though. Best team is Barcelona. Not my first team like but I can appreciate their talent.
    The song's shit but the talent is there.

  17. This is probably a better video, the whole defence is beat by only 2-3 players each time or messi just skips past people, and these are profesional teams so this is hard to do.. :smoke:
