It's got to be the most boring, trumped-up, over hyped, over ruled sport ever.

That and F1.

And, right, they even have the nerve to call it "Football" when their feet hardly ever touch the ball. And when it's time to use the foot, they have to bring on a special player just to kick the egg and then run off again!

Stick to proper football. There's a reason why it's the worlds most popular sport.

Nah. Few sports r worth the effort of watching. Playing yes, but I can't get into them properly unless it's an international tournament... That's always quite fun.

I saw it on Five last night.

Why were they playing in the middle of a snowstorm?

Didn't watch it - I prefer watching the College football though (go Seminoles), but that doesn't get shown on UK TV...

Superbowl? Ah yes, that silly game that's like Rugby but even more ridiculous. And *snigger*, they wear all those pads and stuff. AND a helmet, WAAAAAA HA HA HA. It's like racing but without cars *snigger*.

Seriously though, they still play that?

he he he :o)

They're jessies.

What do they need all that padding for?

They wouldn't last ten minutes on a rugby pitch.

Good old BBC, showing the movie Black Sunday opposite the Superbowl.
