Im just wondering

THIS IS FROM FOX SPORTS. COM ITS TRUE:
Why our football is better than their football

Much better looking trophy given to the champions.

Overtime is sudden death ... first to score, wins.

Championships not decided by the random guessing game that is a penalty kick.

Though it has yet to happen, a Super Bowl champion would be decided in sudden-death overtime.

We won't have to wait another four years for a new Super Bowl champion.

No third-place game played before the Super Bowl.

The French aren't any good at our football.

Football has cheerleaders.

Football has cheerleaders who wear revealing clothing.

No need to make apologies when you tell friends you're a football fan.

Players only carried off field on stretchers for real, serious injuries.

There's no "magic spray" in football.

Our football players can use their hands, and feet, and whatever else they feel like using.

Prevent defense only played in final couple minutes, rather than 90 minutes

I can name all the teams in the NFL, and think it should be back on Channel 4 like it was years ago! Could name quite a few players and coaches too from the mid to late 90s when i used to watch it religiously. Not watched it since channel 5 started doing rubbish super late drawn out coverage. And I'm not American by the way either!

In an effort to clear up a great misconception that is prevalent here, read on:

.....THE EDUCATION OF THE WORLD CONTINUES, ONE MORON AT A TIME.....American football was established before association football. In those days, there was a greater emphasis on kicking the ball in order to advance it toward the end zones. It has evolved into a pass first, run second, kick third strategy. An Englishman by the last name of Brown decided that association football needed to be different and coined the term "soccer" that continues to be marketed under that name by the powers that be in Europe. Basically, we didn’t need to name it soccer because we already had football. And it isn’t necessary to dispute me, look it up....THE EDUCATION OF THE WORLD CONTINUES, ONE MORON AT A TIME.....

I could probably name all the teams in the NFL. I used to follow it in the late 80s. Vikings fan.
I think most British football (soccer) fans could name every team in England and Scotland. It's practically our religion.

we're American and proud of it!!! there is nothing that you can say or do to make us like the "real futbol/football" we're not wimps just because we wear padding. we just have a bit of common sense about us. not many prefer to have broken/dismembered limbs because of a game. what you do is your choice, but don't dis us because of ours'!!!
