I'm not an American and I love both.

I also don't understand how you can possibly dislike either. They are both awesome sports.

Not generally a sports fan, but NFL is marginally more interesting to watch than football (meaning actual football).

Or what about his 500+ goals. This is not including his assists i.e. a pass to a teammate so they can score, of which he has 120+, not including his stats for assists that should have been goals if it wasn't for his teammates fluffing their lines, in this case, it would be in the 200+. Not including his dribbles and free-kick ability either.





Must be mad liking NFL and Baseball over football.

Soccer? soccer????

how dare you compare the glorious head smashing, shoulder bumping, fist pumping football to some lame ball-kicking game ?

So what you're saying is, Messi is the Peyton Manning of soccer.

If, by that you mean, does Peyton Manning lay passes on and his teammates fuck them up each time, then yes. Apart from that, Manning is also about a foot taller than Messi.

No, but it definitely means you're commie scum for daring to ask such a question.  You basically just took a shit over the American flag by asking.
