    Lol, well you wouldn't even have an understanding of the physics at 10.

    Unlike a lot of other sports, you get better with age as you play pool. Take a look at any professional snooker player or world series champions, they're all over 40.

    Every now and again you find a young gem, but for the most part, the older you get the more you learn and so on. I have been playing for 2 years now and although I have come a long way, I get absolutely confused on the table sometimes. I lose a lot of matches due to the wrong strategy.. I play aggressive so once I miss, I leave the table wide open. When I play safe, I often make mistakes.

    Oh wow. I used to work medical staff on a Rugby team. :D they didn't need a stack hat to play football. :p

    American football should be called Passball.

    It would be the NPL, National Princess League. :p

    I have respect for rugby, although I think trying to compare it to Football is like Apples and Oranges. I didn't know it was popular there :D Are you guys any good at it?

    Firstly.... you can't call it football.

    And secondly there probably isnt a uk team because we have better things to do with our time.

    NFL expansion though, they want a London team that's why they take several games to London a year.

    I'd say that hit pretty hard ;) and cause a
    ....
    FUUUUUMMMBBBBBBBBLE! GB

    :tearsofjoy::tearsofjoy:

    Just just joshin' ya, maaate.

    I hope they don't get a London team though. Because then it's not "national". We should start NFL Europe back up. That was always good for laugh. German teams were good in that. :p

    It is Football though. If you need to throw "American" in front of it you can but it's a bit superfluous to say from my perspective.

    The funny thing is, in all the major "football" outside of soccer, using your foot on the ball, which makes it "football" is actually a negative play, unless kicking a goal. You don't want to be "punting" the ball with your foot in the NFL, nor kicking it down the field in Rugby League.

    Rugby Union kicks often, but it's more to do with strategy and field positions.

    And quite frankly, basketball should be called netball. :p

    I also see more nets in volleyball than netball.

    Its true he was on a base, he's safe.
