Im an American and for the most part I agree. The downfall of gridiron will be the fact that it became too greedy and corporate. Everyother sport in the world is better Futbol, Rugby League, Rugby Union, Australian rules football etc.

As the world becomes smaller and more of a global village the corporate greed will be gridiorns own downfall. The sadest thing of all is most supporters of gridiron have never even played the game. Cheers

Cricket is ok some Indian guys were playing at the University and I enjoyed watching. Futbol and Rugby League are my two favorite sports and I am a North American. North American sport is over commercialized but this will change soon as the immigrant population in the United States increases.

I also think team handball from Contiental Europe is quite enjoyabal.

All the best, remember to be a ball game you must be able to see three passes in a row.

@Arun – Thanks! I might just go there. Those photo’s looked stunning.

@sportsfan87 – Yeah. You are right. I loved watching the Celtics win. Went the a hockey game and it was unbelievable. Fastest game I have ever seen. And American football. Well, I am a Brady man. But best watched on the telly so you can see a bit more. But, in the end, give me Liverpool pulling a rabbit out the hat like that Euro game any single bloody time. Best game ever in the history of any sport. “You’ll never walk alone”. Shivers man, shivers.

I mean I like cricket, even helped start the club in my town, but I am a big football fan, basketball fan, and hockey fan. I hate baseball though. Its just too fake and not trustworthy. Getting back to my point, futball is the best sport in the world, but American sports deserve their credit and there aren’t that many cases of steroids in football as there are in baseball.

@SanityFound – It’s a bit like Christmas. You know it is coming and you will get something nice, the only thing you don’t know is how nice.

@nubianqueen89 – Welcome! I just got back from Pennsylvania. Vacation in Bucks County. Yes, these wimpy “football” players. The bigger they are the harder they fall…

@thatdudeyouknow – Actually, it isn’t the Penguins part that is scary, it’s the Pittsburgh part that is scary!

lol at american team theme. I am confused about the Pittsburgh penguins though. The penguins aren’t very threatening. Unless you use them as canon balls, but hey, that’s just cruel.

BTW, I love brittish humo(u)r!
