Think about this, friend. Our best athletes aren't even playing for your little gold cup and we're still competitive. Thank your lucky stars.



this right here is what i have a problem with. you are claiming that american football players are the best athletes in the world, hands down.

this is just not true.

there are many good athletes in american football, but for you to make a blanketed comment like this only proves that you are a thick-headed "stereotypical" american. "my way is best, my game is best, and the rest of the world is just backwards bullshit."

disbelief

giggle
Good on ya', FantasyIslander thumbs up!

You write longer sentences that have a problem getting to the point. I write shorter sentences that are just as effecitve and hit harder. I can run in your game. You couldn't last in mine.

That about sums it up for your footys and my ballers.

Anyway, a comparison between soccer/football & American football is just plain silly.

Let's compare Am football to, say, rugby. But that's another discussion, and not really the topic of this thread...

So, do you like the US, or not?


I missed this one.

Actually i am there right now, i have been diving here since thursday last week and i have just accepted a placement here for 3 months at IDC development center .If i hated Americans and all things American there is no way i would do that.
What i do find grates on me is the "America is the greatest nation in the world" mentality and because of that idea everyone else sucks. That gets to me and i think you will find many other people around the globe....and in fact many Americans too.
In my experience there are many many lovely people here and many who don't have that mentality. However it's the attitude not the person or the place. Just like arrogance among the French or superiority among the English or any other perceived trait among a nation. There are many that show these traits and it is the trait not the country or the person that is the problem.

So in answer to your question. Yes i like the US.

If players like Ladanian Tomlinson, Mike Vick, Vince Young, Reggie Bush, or Champ Bailey chose to play Soccer as opposed to football, the US would win the little fifa cup at will. The same cannot be said for soccer players attempting to play football..unless they wish to punt or placekick.

your arrogance is absolutely pitiful. soccer takes more skill than you give it credit for, and your attitude leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

Well done. Its easy to just bash the USA and label it arrogance. Im glad ur a kick ass rugby player. You must play professionally. Im not real sure when I claimed to play either football or rugby. However, I was all state in basketball and maybe I should act like im real cool and challenge everyone to a game.

Lets talk about pitiful bragging now Muff.

hmm, i think i'm kind of in a unique position to understand both sides of this story... hmmm no similarity between the two games, really, except the name and that there are "goals" involved. different sorts of athletic talent are needed for each.

frankly, i don't see why there's even a "one is better than the other" argument going on here... it's all apples & oranges to me.

I tell you all this fucking arguing and squabbling over best athlete who best athlete what is foolish. Different athletes train and condition their bodies to work efficiently in their sport of choice. You wouldn't take a ferrari to a monster truck derby. Get my drift? There are great athletes in all sports comparing whose the better athlete is just bollocks.
Carpenters bend wood, fletchers bend arrows, wise men fashion themselves.
