Ho ho ho i like a sport that cripples its participants, i like a sport that has "athletes" who are such hulking masses that they literally need to inhale oxygen from a tank before they huddle for 5 seconds with another fat idiot.

I like sports that stop every five seconds, I like a sport that has 11 minutes of action out of 40 minutes of gameplay.



in a word, "feh"

NOT. football is for faggots. wear short shorts and have other men hoist you up for massive wedgies ftw

rugby fixes all of the problems you have with american football tho. theres no play stoppages, teams dont consist primarily of meatwalls, etc

im all for reactionary footballism but if youre gonna do it then

1. try to keep in mind that as a sport it rewards not just individual inspiration but collective struggle, and is thus the true communist peoples' sport

2. post some fuckin messi you tarts

I'll never support a sport that both allows players to loiter in front of the opponents goals and sanctions wanton kicking at other players' shins.

also and rugby sucks cause it actually eliminates the one skillful/aesthetically pleasing role in football and removes any sort of tactical sophistication.

noob.

idk what youre talking about but it certainly isnt union

heh, actually i was making an archaic reference to the schism that originally separated Assosciation Football (soccer) from Rutgers Football (rugby).

The Rutgers dudes disagreed about adding laws that both prevent players from just taking up whatever position they wanted (i.e, the early offside law, 'no loitering in front of the opponents goal') and tackling at a person's body instead of at the ball.

And the second part was about eliminating forward passes and the role of the quarterback which are the kewl parts of american football.

Soccer is retareded. Here's a little video I made about how Football is the best:

if you're marxist or in any way not a slave to the machine then you have to hate all sports except maybe football (real football, not american "football"), and that's fine with me! (my avatar is ironic)
#79
but not the american 'soccer' leage. you have to like proper, european football
