American football is a game for people who can't play for an hour. In a typical game, the ball is in play for 17 minutes. What a waste of time. At least in real sports, they actually have to play a reasonable amount of time.
You mean like hockey, where they replace the entire team every five minutes or so?

Except I am not American.
Will TenPenny:

1. Admit to the f*ckup?

2. Try to weasel out by saying "You were born and live in the Americas, therefore you're American?" or

3. Try to ignore it?

Stay tuned!

This fellow has come up with the name London Archers for a London NFL team and has designed some logos:
I still prefer the Briddish Retards or the Briddish Rentboys.

Bad idea? It's a great idea. Let some rich English narcissist blow a few billion on a doomed NFL franchise in London. It's some kind of temporary wealth redistribution for sure.

"Fat Eddie Murphy, you're just a fat Eddie Murphy! Fat Eddie Murphy, you're just a fat Eddie Murphy!"

"Yanks, Yanks, wherever you may be, you eat hotdogs in your country. It could be worse, you could be Scouse, eating rats in your council house!"

And when London Archers win the Super Bowl, the stadium would ring out to "IT'S COMING HOME! IT'S COMING HOME! IT'S COMING! FOOTBALL'S COMING HOME!"

Do all Brittish sports fans sound like 8 year old North American boys?

"Soccer" is almost non-stop action for 90 minutes. The only rest they get is 15 minutes at half time.

Well, non-stop I can buy but action is a bit of a stretch.

I dislike watching soccer and basketball.

I like watching all sports, some for the action, some for the strategy and drama. Baseball is a great sport that is made better if you understand the strategy but the action level doesn't equal hockey. Hockey's a great sport but driving a car at 200 mph 2" of another cars bumper, that's drama.

Yes, virtually all. I have been told that much of it is from hundreds of years of inbreeding.

I think that all the seed left there by North American soldiers during WWII helped. It's scary to think what the place would be like today if we sat that one out

I am from Massachusetts... I did play hockey. I played in an adult league for years as well.

My point is that you probably don't like football so you think football players can't play either of those sports. Just about all of us played both football and hockey. Soccer wasn't a popular sport and it was a fall sport so you couldn't play both soccer and football at the HS level.
I played lacrosse for years, and the physicality was nowhere near football. I almost got killed playing high school football.

So lemme get this straight.

British people will vote for Brexit because of fervent, nationalist pride, but also want to join an American football league.


What a bunch of retards.
