With games about to start up, just wondering which NFL team you are rooting for this year?
Me, it’s the Green Bay Packers, of course:D Once a Cheese Head (Mincer!) always one. Hopefully they won’t be messing up like they did a few times last year…
And while we are at it, what college/high school teams are you rooting for? High School, Strong High here. Been three years since I’ve been, and their football team sucks big time, but if they have one I’ll root for 'em and run chains like I’ve the past 5 years or so.
As for college teams, my little college doesn’t have one, but I’m rooting for the Arkansas Razorbacks:D Hope to go to that college next year at the engineering department as soon as I’m done with my three year stay at this college.
Ooohhhh, the “Rugby is to tough for us so we need padding,
and lots of breaks. And we also need to have an Attack and a
Defence coz we arn’t tough enough to do both.” brigade.
:lol:

:smackbum: Yeah, it is tough, that’s why I watched a mate dragged off the field a couple of years ago.
And, one of the local high school teams last year (I won’t mention that it’s the one I root for:p ) had only 13, and 11 are required on the field. The other two were only backups, so our boys had to do both, so in effect they have to play two games.
Everyone in the world outside the USA (yes, there is a world outside the USA. its quite big too) knows that football is not what you guys call football. What you guys call football, the rest of the world calls “A bunch of beefy padded guys bashing in to each other and then stopping for a few minutes”.
If you want a real skill game, play “proper” football, or as you guys lamely call it, “soccer”.

You think that’s a daft game - try this one
Cricket:
You have two sides, one out in the field and one in. Each man that’s in the side that’s in goes out, and when he’s out he comes back in and then the next man goes in until he’s out. When those that are in are all out, then the side that’s out comes in and the side thats been in goes out and tries to get those coming in, out.
Sometimes you get men still in and not out. When a man goes out to go in, the men who are out try to get him out, and when he is out he goes back out and then the next man in goes out and gets out.
Then there are also two men called umpires who stay out all the time and they decide when the men who are in are out. When both sides have been in and all the men have got out, and both sides have been in and out twice, including those who were in and are not out, then that’s the end of the game!
