I don't car about soccer to be honest. But when I was younger I always went to Feyenoord to see the idiots fighting with the police.

I would challenge you to call Warren Sapp or Ray Lewis a "delicate little fairy" straight to their face. 
Rugby is very similar to a game played across schoolyards all over the USA called "Smear the Queer," or "Kill the man with the ball."
And can someone please explain Cricket to me? How the hell do you interpret the scores? And where is Harare, or Chittagong? When I'm in Europe travelling and watching BBCWorld, those two places come up alot in the context of Cricket.

LOL!!! Sapp or Lewis??? Most of the NFL quarterbacks would crumple rugby players these days! 6'4" 235bs+ is near the norm, now with many tipping 250! Try 270lbs linebackers, Merriman and Urlacher with 4.5 speed....yeah, okay. And tiny Vince Young, rookie, 6-5 235 4.58 speed, WR Terrel Owens 6'3" @230 and no bodyfat!!! Players in the NFL are so fast, big, and physical it's hard to compare it to rugby. Rugby is fun to watch though!!! =D

My Ride: 2008 E90 335i Titanium Silver
GONE - 2005 530i Titanium Grey
I can appreciate most codes of football. I follow the Giants in the NFL, am a QLD Reds member & support the Australian Wallabies (obviously!) in Rugby Union, but above all, I am huge Liverpool fan in "soccer".
I'm not a fan of Rugby League though... just not my cup of tea. I used to love it growing up (Balmain supporter), but the game lost its soul in the Super League days and I never went back.

What's it all about again? Soccer football cricket, midgets, wickets?
I really find golf boring. I know i'm gonna get the hammer on this. In fact i don't really want to stand too much time next to a golfer.

Adding to the topic, I once heard that in ruby players put shite in one another's ears. Also, the ears are prone to biting ala Mike Tyson, pulling, and twisiting. Is this true?

so which football team do you support if any? im from manchester and im a BIG Machester United fan.
I find soccer very fun, enjoyable and exciting, always on your toes would be the best word to describe it. On the contrary, FOOTBALL <_< (no offense to anyone, I understand its an American thing) I just can't watch it because each play goes for like 5 - 10 seconds, then its huddle and setting up and all that all over again, its just too boring, plus switching between offense and defense, is just not my idea of sports... But playing it is a whole other story! I love playing Football and Soccer!
NOTE: This is purely my opinion, I do not intend to offend or mock on anyone in any way. I respect both sports and all sports in general. (From bad experience, I got like 5 american like interrogate me about whats wrong with football before, when i just said, I'd rather watch soccer than football, its less boring. This happened at a bar full of Americans, luckily only a few heard me, or I would've been dead.
