Ajreag Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 There is always the discussion which football is better. The one britains know as soccer which is promoted much more around the world, and the football you would know as american football, which seems to be american national sport i personally prefer the american football... i even play it !! i´m really lucky about that because it´s not a very big sport in germany... So tell me now: Which one do you prefer? Soccer or american football? Quote
BnBChumMaster Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 Rugby myself, Australian rules, I played semi pro American football for Yokosuka Seahawks in the early 80's, but nothing beats a good square hit without pads. 2 Quote
Levi Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 American football, just more goes into it in my opinion. I get bored watching people kick a soccer ball forever just to win may 1-0. Quote

Joker Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 Football (soccer) has the risk of watching a game for 90 min (even longer sometimes) and seeing a 0-0, while having a terrible personal experience of a rugby match, spending 60 minutes of which at max 4 was played and rest was spent positioning, generally after every 10-15 second of gameplay the referee whistled and the game was paused for long minutes.

DeathBringer* Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 Joker always has an answer with a good explaination Quote
EvoLuT!oN* Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 The Football! Great example of it was tonight Real Madrid-Man City...what a game! Quote
soulJAHmon Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 Soccer and baseball are fun to play, but boring to watch. Good defense and/or a good pitcher, and next thing u know......zzzzzzzzzzzz American football is fun to watch, and even more fun the last few years because of fantasy football, which gets me in the game and brings more excitement to gameday.

A_Snake Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 I really like American College Football. I usally get in on several betting pools every year and it has been made even easier through ESPN and other Sports pages lately. I just finished putting together an old school list of straight up picks that we've had going for the past 15 or so years. Even though I put the teams on the list my picks are still in the dumps since I've only place in the top 10 once this season. So to answer the question, I know nothing about soccer other than each team kicks the ball around trying to get it in the goal and that means I like and love American Football. Quote
+fluffybunny+ Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 They both blow. Though soccer is the most widely played sport on the planet. Quote
WeetBix KiD Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 Aussie Rules footy FTW. Takes skill to jump on someones back, catch the ball and land without breaking your neck lol Soccer is Ok, But I only watch it during the world cup and Australia. I tried to watch American football (super bowl) But I didnt understand it :/ Quote
Spitfire Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 I don,t get it,why are americans calling their handegg football but since it's not that popular in Europe like soccer is i go for soccer. Quote
