    I don't think it was heels, they moved too quickly lol. Yeah I couldnt get into that. Lingerie Football League. Even though appealing, it was kind of unappealing that a female sport had to be sexualising in the way it was to be appealing.

    How about a naked girl's football league on a muddy field with lots of illegal contact? I'd watch.
     
  3. Girls should think of something they do better than men and turn it into a sport.

    Sports aren't about which gender does something better, it's about competition and comraderie. All anybody really ever sees on TV are the elite. Not 2nds or down to 5th divisions lol. But they play because it's still their skill level for the competition. Without it, there'd be no elite bevause nobody would play.
     
  5. Then why isn't ladies football a thing?

    We play every other style of football.
    Maybe because American football is just American

    Bit of biffo at the end of the Argentina vs France game in the Rugby World cup

    About 2 dozen guys fighting, but I cant find the video anywhere. Apparently nowadays kids might turn into serial killers if they watch 30 seconds of frenchies getting punched in the head

    america is about sports the way russia used to be about claiming to have invented everything else.

    so america uses the same name for one thing, every other place in the world, and i mean every, except maybe canada,
    uses for a round ball propelled by the feet, instead that silly pointed on both ends thing that is the tag your it to catch and carry.

    I don't think there is anything in rugby as brutal as the 10-20 yard pass across the middle with a Defensive Back making a Hit at Full speed as the ball arrives or a Blind Side Quarter Back Sack.

    But Football is basically trying to take rough QB sacks out of the game and limiting where Receivers can be hit.

    The Hits in NFL aren't legal at all in Rugby it would be a send off for a shoulder charge. You're allowed to use your shoulder, only if you're demonstrating that you're wrapping your arm around the guy in a legal tackle. Then you can go full shoulder, so long as your arm is around the player. So it's totally different.

    Also in the NFL, they use their helmet as weapons too, putting their head down and burning their neck in their pads and deliver a big hit. You'd just break your neck in rugby.

    I like teasing American football but it's my favourite lol. I like all American sports kinda. Well. I won't watch them all but I get them, they've very geared toward spectators and fans with the colors and the cheerleaders and the noise, speed, advertising. You just don't get that level of... Atmosphere I guess in other sports across the world. Yes a soccer game, a country game can be unreal, but the event is kind of it. Whereas in America we party in the parking lot at the tail gate 5 hrs before game. Party 3 days before a race etc. You go to soccer game you go in come out 2hrs later, go to pub and get in fight lol.

    Absolutely agree with that, but, then again, I watched women's soccer this summer, and it wasn't for the sport...
