It could even be made a political type of game, like the olympics, but with semi-automatic weapons and heavy firearms... Or we could make our prisoners run for their lives for our entertainment like in "The running man" yes that would be fun...

But football? neeaah, that games for pig-skin catchin sissies...
We have a game like that. It's called politics.

You are correct, madam, I never played soccer in my puff. Probably would have if they offered it back in the Dark Ages. (1963-66)

to those who say footballplayers are overpayd: i take it if you were one you would turn down a salary like that and tell the clubowners they should give it to the less fortunate, because you feel your being payd too much, right ?

If football is a waste of time, then so are all other major sports in the world. Unless you despise sports, I think the only valid answer here is "no".

I'm Australian and since we missed out on the world cup again, I won't be watching a single second of the world cup. In fact, I have watched one game of International soccer in my entire life and I found it boring as hell.

But then again....i love cricket. Go figure!

I guess I'm just a spoilsport Australian.
