I dare say more people watch Curling than CFL.

Do you mean football as in the game where men wear far too much padding and rarely connect foot with ball?
Essentially Throwball?
Makes me laugh how people think NFL players are tough nuts, Rugby is far more physical with no padding at all.

Would it just not have been darn-diddly wrong to raise a new thread just to ask what kind of football someone was on about in another thread? I think so.
It's ok, we both see how you were wrong, we can now move on with our day.

Yep i have seen CFL, probally see more hail mary's in it.In england it is on NASN and have to pay extra for the channel. think £3.00 a month but tned not to bother as i wactch NFL.
The problem is you can't compare rugby to American football beacuse its a completly different game.How often do you see someone knocked out in rugby?
Plus the fact that most rugby players look like they have been run over by a truck.

Go on, back in your box before I get my balls out.

Football is for pussies unless you play it without padding and incorporate a scrum into it.
Rugby ftw.
CFL is the only pro sport I watch its the only one where theirs not a bunch of premadona pussies. I think the biggest thing is Ive never really enjoyed watching any sports besides hockey and football and the NHL lockout made lose interest in it.

25. In Austraila football is called buttsecks.
For all the people who say (American) football is for pussies, how many of you have actually played it?
I played it for four years and in that time I,
Broke my leg
Broke three fingers, one of them twice
Have had 2 concussions
Had a gash in my leg that took quite a number of stitches to close
and, while on my back, had my balls stepped on by a 250+ lb. lineman wearing metal-tipped cleats (no lasting injury, but got a nice break from the game )
I have never played rugby before, but it does look intense. That does not, however, under any circumstances, make football for pussies.

Rugby consists of massive clusterfucking of whoever has the ball. The ball gets loose and is picked up, cycle repeats. I fail to see how a sport consisting of a bunch of men with the IQ of forrest gump finding out who gets sodomized by the phallic ball last is even mildly entertaining.

The hits are also much weaker. Have you seen Rugby guys? Nowhere near the amount of body mass as someone like, say...Jevon Kearse in his prime, or Julius Peppers in his. Both of those guys would fuck even the biggest guy in Rugby up. The reason they wear such huge pads nowadays is BECAUSE OF PEOPLE LIKE THEM. The muscle mass of the average rugby player looks like the muscle mass of the average kicker. It's like a bunch of Adam Vinatieri clones running around.-=]NS[=-Eagle wrote:

So, Brits who make fun of football should really get on the Gridiron and then they can run their mouth if they can survive a hit in pads without being hurt.

I could carry on my random google searches to further the point but there is no need, I'm by no means an avid rugby fan, but what you just said is bullshit.
I know you have a notional team and therefore I presume you have your own league system. But never heard of it and never gonna take any interrest to get to know it.
Sorry...???
