Bigsoxx your a …
Bigsoxx your a fagot! you wear pads! pads are for and the rest of the world dont give a rats about gay-gridiron! and by more advanced do you mean roided out with dinabol! america made their own sports cause they suck at everything else!! get a life you nieve american! or come play rugby in england then you will know what a hit feals like!
People still …
People still arguing about football(soccer) and American football. Sheesh… all sports are the same.
I know, …
I know, psychological games isnt it, that made me make that mistake!
i know, he got me.
i know, he got me.
jayunited, it is …
jayunited, it is spelled Grammar, not Grammer.
fuck dammit. …
dammit. psychological warfare really paid off for u, bigsoxx. i cant believe i made that mistake!!!!
so u support …
so u support Arsenal. Gud for u!
I think u’ve a lot of english learn – u cant stop swearing. so u get off that easily, and u try to insult my english, which is a bit pathetic.
+ Grammer, not Grammar. Idiot.
Thierry Henry. But …
Thierry Henry. But again i never said dat.
U got to be in love with ur country for saying. Once again proove it, because the majority here cant c it. More advance – u got to be in a dream world. IGNORANT is wat u r. I think u’ve got a lot to learn abt this world. U’re falling a bit behind us (the rest of the world).
And also if u want to insult, set ur standards higher, u complaining abt my english is not good enough!
football is abt 400 …
football is abt 400-500 yrs old. Most say it started from the UK, but i’m not sure abt that. But cricket did – and its a world sport unlike NSL. dont c NSL advancing from dat, or even baseball and basketball. The point is the sports that country play r boring, worthless, and simply a waste of time. when i say “we” dat includes the rest of world minus the US (and possibly canada). I hope Obama changes ur country’s fortunes around and save ur country from people like u.
now r u talking abt …
now r u talking abt football or rugby here. Again is that the best u can do … complain abt my english.
this is a waste..go …
this is a waste..go back and argue with your locals, dont try and come at me with your terrible writing, spelling and overall grammar that doesnt make sense, literally..
we play FOOTBALL, so stop crying, we took it, get over it, no one likes a cry baby
yes we wear pads, cuz…um…ITS A DIFFERENT GAME!!!!!
we dont play rugby, cuz you cant feed the family with running around and drinking beer while tossing a ball like little women playing together
good talk..go Arsenal..fuck you.learn english
no ONE player can …
no ONE player can turn a team around, name me one player in the wprld that has single handedly turned the fortune of a team around,
and i have a great clue as to whats going on in this conversation, you europeans are whining little girls cuz we use the term fooball, except we dont play your style,
you people get mad at americans cuz we are far more advanced than you in the sporting world and you ladies only have soccer and rugby to enjoy
and finally, you have no idea how to write
yes the whole world …
yes the whole world hates us, thats great, mainly out of jealously, its typical of lower class folks to hate on our freedoms,
we didnt stab anyone in the back, so get over it, you didnt invent soccer
as far as “staying to the point” you said for me to try and make sense when i reply, clearly showing you cant read, and half of your replies arent even full sentences
and why do you keep saying “prove me wrong” as if im going to fly to your piece of country
yea cuz we tackle …
yea cuz we tackle you dumb fuck, you guys dont, your arguments dont have any real validation, go back to school man and stop worrying about the NFL, you wouldnt last 5 mins in any game of football, oh im sorry, American Football, GO AND READ AN ENGLISH AND PROPER GRAMMAR BOOK BEFORE YOU SHOW THE WORLD HOW STUPID YOU ARE, you cant even write properly…dumb ass
and yet in addition …
and yet in addition to shin guards, u need a helmet … body armour … leggings (cause it gets cold for u – leggings keeps u warm), and the only applicable item dat u wear for gridiron are the shoes.
Football is a such …
Football is a such a big sport, we have to give it two different names. brilliant isnt it?
Fucking americans, we discovered you, and in return you stab us in the back. No wonder the whole world hates you
rugby vs NSL ( …
rugby vs NSL (national soccer league). I like to c u’re best american soccer players to pit against general rugby players and c wat happens. So far i think, due to the protective they wear, americans players wont last against rugby players: proove me wrong … den u words will make sense.
Football is a complete different to NSL so dont compare.
Zidane is in …
Zidane is in different class to Beckham. Beckham is not that gud, he can’t even get LA Galaxy to first place. He’s only there for popularity and merchandise for the club.
Hey idiot, have i …
Hey idiot, have i corrected ur english? Did i mention about ur english being bad or good? Keep to the point, we’re talking about Football, not english!!! Now wat u just said tells me u r a wining son of a bitch, with no clue of what is goin’ on with this conversation.
Just another annoying ignorant american on youtube. U know nothing football, my advice is watch european football more often and u’ll understand.
wow you have no …
wow you have no idea how dumb you make yourself sound, maybe its not my ENGLISH, but rather its your inability to understand english, youre from the UK and youre trying to correct my english? man thats like me trying to tell you how to speak in your native tongue, and what are you, some priest? for fucksake mate, its just cursing, words, expressions, or would it sound better if i cursed like you guys? you wanker…practice proof reading before you send messages cuz your grammar is like a kid
not really. i …
not really. i suppose u dont what the olympics. U’re country got 5 times as many people than the UK, so i would expect u to be better than us. It wud be an awful shame if u werent and an embarrassment as well. U english is really bad .. u have to use swear words to get your point accross – that really sad isnt it!
remember he plays …
remember he plays at the wing, and so he has advance as well in attack to provide support. everyone does that. True u r right about mid 30s, class is permanent, form is temporary.
puma and adidas also calls the sport football as well. (the rest of the world comes into mind).
ah yes and if …
ah yes and if toughness is being compared, soccer and american football dont compare, i dont think ive ever seen more acting jobs and when players flop in the box grabbing there shins, like theyre actually injured, putting on a real ladies act when the only pads you do wear are SHIN GUARDS, so lose the acting performance and be a man, i love when those morons get the red acting like little girls…and like i was saying before, soccer is so BIG cuz its all you GOT.!!!!!!!
any and every major …
any and every major sport played worldwide, other than rugby and SOCCER, we dominate and just have the better trained athletes..we may not produce them, but it comes down to one thing, and money will sometimes dictate that, we pay for the best of the best, and those best will come play where the MONEY is…sad? maybe, but its true and will remain that way until someone else can provide the resources we provide..you may laugh but the american national soccer team will continue to climb the ranks
