Things i/people Hate!Follow

What do you hate the most?
Me? It's got to be how the North Americans took the sport Football (/soccer... Whatever makes you sleep at night)and called it "Soccer". And took the sport American football, and called it football... When they hardly use their feet! And in NA, the children always say, why do people out side U.S.A. call "Soccer", "Football"? Well, EVERYONE (almost everyone) outside NA call "Soccer" "Football"...

It really annoys me.
Oh well, What do you hate?

Having played both rugby and football I can assure you that this is not true. Generally speaking the hits in Football are infintitely more vicious than in rugby. And the reason for this is the padding. When you're well padded, your body becomes a much more dangerous weapon than when it is not.

Don't believe me? Put on a football helmet and dash yourself headfirst into a concrete wall. Now try it without the helmet at the same speed.

Rugby's a rough game, but you're an idiot if you think football isn't much more violent.

So, if he's called you a skeeving jiz recepticle, that would have been ok, but a closet homosexual is low? I get it now. People with no sense of humor and people who lack the ability to laugh at themselves bug the crap out of me. The fact that you people in the sandbox still take everything so freaking seriously bugs the crap out of me. You posted. That is asking for opinions. Thanks for playing, felcher (is that better than closet ****?).

Absolutely true, any wide receiver would atest to that when he had just been flattened by the Free safety.

I reality the main difference between Rugby and American Throwball is the fluidity of the game, In rugby Union the game is a continuous flow with very few stoppages <In thoery> the fluidity does not allow for the impacts that you see in Rugby League and American Throwball.

Rubgy League has more stoppages but again since you have to be on your feet and going again in 5 seconds you have to choose when you use your 'Big Hits' where as American Throwball the stop start nature of the game with 40 sec intervals between plays allows for the High impact tackling that necessatated the introduction of Padding for the safety of players.

IMHO it does not take anything from the game and allows for very spectacular individual plays that you rarely get in the two forms of rugby.

It does lose out on the fluid action though but that is to the taste of the American Audiance.
