Castrate yourself first, because you probably don't even know what pr0n is.

Then hand in your man card.

Finally, die.

And to the OP, like someone else said it's probably because you don't understand the Xs and Os. There are a lot of people at my school who claim they "hate" baseball and it "sucks" but they've never played it in their life, or if they did it was t-ball and they sucked. They don't realize how much of a mental game it is. I have a feeling you suffer from the same thing.

I understand the game, I don't find it entertaining. Looks like I'm not the only one either 🙂.

I'd much rather watch a baseball/basketball game anyday. *College football not withstanding, that's entertaining*

Oh joy, so you like to watch 'revenge of the 'roids, and isolation nightmare?

Not a clue what you're talking about.

Lol you people take everything so personally.

Now if there was more camera angles ON the cheerleaders, then it'd be worthwhile. But it's football's just so damn boring, except as mentioned, the very few badass plays.
 
i have never paid any attention whatsoever to football. i can get into a game, if im with people who care, but otherwise i could care less. i make up my mind about who i want to win the super bowl based on whoevers the underdog in the paper that morning. but really- its all about the commercials and the food. duh.
 
You watch baseball and you don't know about the steroid issue?

You watch pro bb, and you don't know what the "iso" plays did to the game?
 
Football, any sport for that matter, that one does not participate directly in is boring as hell. They're not "YOUR" team, you contribute nothing, they don't even knowyou exist. When one team outperforms another, that has utterly no bearing on your own significance. I don't find it competitive at all because I can't compete in it, and I am a competitive person. I really dont see the point in it. Now if you want to get a group of guys together to get drunk and have a collective excuse to become loud and obvnoxious then sure, count me in 😀
 
umm...I love football, in all forms I acutally prefer college and highschool too pro but still enjoy watching my team (the lions) and usually one other game per week for pro. I have watched every playoff game so far and I don't think I"ve ever missed the super bowl since I was old enough to know what football was

I guess not. I said I'd *rather* watch baseball. Not I watch every single game during the season.

Who exactly was Einstein competing with?

You think they just hand out grants/professorships to anyone? You gotta publish! And if you publish lower quality or fewer articles than some up-and-coming person...guess who's getting your job. Money goes to people who make use of it.

Have you reproduced?
I have three children. Until you've continued your genes you cannot criticize my disdain for competition.

~edit
to drunk to spell.
 
I don't nor do I care about the NFL.

I also do not care about all these YACT either. A car is a car. Something cheap that gets you to A to B is all anyone needs.

Your conclusion is non sequitur.

Einstein was working in a patent office and was not competing for grants or professorships. He wrote because he was compelled to.

i don't support the NFL at all. Nothing but much of high paid players, some don't even respect the game, like mooning the crowd.


But college football is another story.

Go BCS


🙂

Maybe you should do some research. Moss mooned the crowed because the GB fans have mooned opposing players while they leave the stadium.

Explain that one please. Everything my boys (i have 3 too) do is compitition. Grades, sports, I even make up compititions, like just this weekend I paid $20 to whomever could hold thier arms up in a T position longest... Builds charachter and prepares them for real world which in nothing but a compitition.

What you fail to realize is that PLAYING footbal has nothing to do with it. All these sportscenter zealots (TM) aren't even involved with the game, they sit a thousand miles away and shout at the TV appliance and think it is the essence of masculenity. I find that comical 🙂
 
Its called having a Super Bowl party and drinking and chillin with your closest friends.
Whats there not to like ??
 
i'm not a big fan of football...actually im not a big fan of sports in general...and yes i've watched football several times...its boring to me...throw the ball, run, get tackled, repeat...kick the ball every now and again for a change of pace...for two hours or so...so no i won't be watching the super bowl...i'll be bangin your gf while you are 😛 j/k
 
Football is entertainment to bovine America. PERIOD.

I used to like it, then I got odler and my interests more diverse and thought provoking. I appreciate that there is strategy involved. People "into it" are so because it's fun. i'd presonally rather spend several hours in the library entertaining myself with Value Line, making myself wealthy in the process.
