We feel the same about your views on soccer.

*football

Ahem.

 

[McBain]

Vince Mcmahon has apparently invented a new football league to out bore the original one. Its only got 8 teams so I reckon they’ll need to play each other 67 times to fill out the season.

I just cant get into anything where you basically score every time you get the ball

The scores from the weekend:

100-115
107-97
110-109
129-133

Give me a tense 1-0 all day for actual nerves and emotion

Hi, Cricket called and wants its ridiculous scores back.

once we get to 60 with a majority votes the law is activated and we have consensus.

I'm all for this, but I'm confused whether it's Yanks or Yank Sports that are on trial.

Americans have NEVER got cricket, it is far too deep for them. It's a thinking mans game, stick some violence in it and they would be all over it.

Cricket is worse than all the yank sports

Shouldn't the title of this be non-Commonwealth sports? I mean baseball and basketball are global sports more so than say rugby or cricket.

American football is more complex than cricket though, basketball is more complex than football as well.

I’ve always found it interesting that in a country where the stereotype is that everyone is dumb they all prefer far more tactically complex sports than the rest of the world.

I'm sorry, what?
Also, not about complex, about thinking. Sit in peace and enjoy five days of strategy.
