The Rowdies

though they haven't been around for a few years, I mean you did say FootBall correct?



j/k

I am glad to see the Bucs did well last year and all, but honestly I like the Steelers and Packers of old, say later 60's early 70's. Today, mmm, Raiders and would like to see the Buc's do well for a period of time. Not even win the Bowl, but do well instead of looking like a bunch of cross eyed idiots with tar on the shoes, grease on their hands and sand between their ears.

So... can anyone explain the rules of Gridiron in a couple of sentences - I'm guessing it's got to do with getting the ball to one end of the field and when that happens you get abou thte same # of points as the guy does backflips?

Chris...it's much like Rugby...but through the process of arms escalation [shades of Cold War panic], helmets were used for protection which necessitated body-armour use to protect from the helmets......whereas in Rugby they get by with taping their ears back so they don't get ripped off....

Well, you take the football, but only the Kicker can realy put his foot on it as a means of play, everyone else has to carry or throw it. The rest of it is as Jafo says, Rugby but for girls

ah well, my boy Chris used to play for the Eckard College Rugby club team. Started when he was 16 and played two years and loved it. It is a hell of a thing to watch and to realize just how little people get hurt playing it in relation to the types of injurys.

Football is hard and I wouldn't want one of those 250 - 325 lb mountains running over me or jumping on top of me for that matter



but it is with Pads, so out of the two, Rugby would be considered the meaner of them... in my pov

I live in 'Cheese Head' land so the Packers of course rule here but I personally do not like to watch football. I do like running the pool and throwing the Super Bowl party though.

The Alouettes are division champions for the third time in four years, woohoo! Playoffs are going to start soon, will the Cup stay in Montreal for a second year in a row? Chances are pretty good, although Edmonton will give a good fight.

Guys you're all missing the point all of these are substitutes for the beautiful game.
(you call it soccer)

Bill shankly - "Some people consider football life and death. It's much more important than that."

Oh weren't the quotes supposed to be on the other thread - oh well.
