A bit like rugby but with girly padding.

16 balls in one game! another example of American decadence.

The first time I was at an American football game, I honestly asked my friends after the first quarter whether the actual game would start now. So far I had just seen people throwing some balls and running a few yards, and other people measuring the segments of the field for some reason, and i figured this was some kind of warmup excercise and preparations. The looked at me like I was crazy.

You consider that slow? No, having a soccer game go 3 hours with 1 or 2 goals is slow to me. But again, sports is just like religion, you are most likely going to get into it because your parents were or the society you live in is into it.

I cant watch soccer or golf, or baseball too slow for me. I wont say it takes no talent, all sports at the pro level take talent, even the ones I don't like. I can only say I am not into soccer or golf or baseball. You are not crazy for not understanding it or not liking it, but they are not crazy for liking it.
