I admit that its retarded that American football is called football, and that rugby is much better than American football. But soccer is the third most boring sport, after baseball and golf.

"Oooh, look, he's running down the field with the ball! Oh, look, an interception/out of bounds! Oooh, look, he's running towards the other side of the field! Oooh, look, he's faking an injury! Oooh, look, they're running towards the other side of the field!"

Repeat approximately 384874389484 times.

Goaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaal.

Repeat back and forth running approximatelely 48484854884 times.

Red card.

Repeat back and forth running exactly 7945903044948843 times.

Team A wins, 1-0! Man, that was some exciting ninety-five minutes!

pfft... as if American football is more exiting. Lasting 3 hours with 2434004040 interruptions, slow pace.

Football (soccer) can be boring indeed, i don't watch the danish league, cuz danish football sucks balls on a monkey-ass rapist.
I mostly watch spanish football.. now that's intertainment!!! High tempo and lots of goals.

It is true that there is scored that many goals soccer, but so what? There's still alot of excitement. Plus when players score a goal in soccer its a bigger thrill, because scoring a goal in soccer is not nearly as easy or happen nearly as often as in, oh lets say basketball, or american footie.

Once again, american football can be really boring too. I went to a game a few weeks ago and for every minute played, I had to suffer through around 4 of ads and the clock being stopped. Got to be so fucking boring.

Basketball is boring also- generally because there are so many goals scored, nothing matters until the last 3 minutes or so. Those last 3 minutes can be exciting, and thats about it.

Which brings us back to soccer, where the opposite is true. Sure, its exciting when those one or two goals are scored, but I'm sure as fuck not going to watch 95 minutes for 93 minutes of running and 2 minutes of excitement.

American football is all steroids and kneepads. REAL football for the win.

Anyways, football hooligans could beat up American football fans.


Football hooligans could beat up American football players as well, even with their pads on.

Well pes has its bugs but fifa is downright shitty so unless you gonna play sensible soccer I'd say enjoy pes to the fullest. And silence the fucking commentator, it's useless.


I could not agree more :dio:



And about football (soccer), it is like a chess game. On a massive field trying to read each other. Now this at times can be boring in one's eye, but it still remains the most popular sport in the world. After all every sport needs its own understanding.

Seconded on both accounts.

I'll agree with what Brahm said about basketball only when it's shitty teams that are playing.







Foosball and air hockey are the only sports I'm good at.

Played Pes6 for the first time today.

Pes has always pissed me off quite a lot, but then that's not really hard to do. I liked it but found it to be a bit cumbersome. And sometimes you just do fucking stupid crap. Like, I'll be facing one of my players and press pass, and my dude will do a perfect 180 turn and knock it out for a throw in.

You need to point at the player you want to pass the ball to, Rio. It's shitty, I know. But I really get pissed when it comes to shooting. They want you to be really skilled at budgeting your strength and distance from the ball before you shoot. I've gone one on one so many times with the keeper, and I'll shoot. But fuckin hell!!!! The ball just floats very weakly straight into the bastards' arms. But after some frustrating practice sessions, it's kinda cool. And you get a lot of fun seeing the ball float, this time into the goal, more like a lob. Cheeky one.
