I usually (am able to) avoid all the public noise. So I can actually enjoy watching football with a couple of friends (if I werent a bit sick today).

Same here, football (not soccer) its cool. (a good match of course)

[mdv2000]

Yes! I especially hate that the sport has infiltrated most of the other gaming/computing forums I subscribe to. A little surprised to see so many turned into robots and fair weather fans that way. The popularity of American Football (Gridiron) within the past 30 years is robopathic enough, but Soccer now? I guess most people need a diversion from the reality of life. Just something else to follow, while not really 'living', so they may continue to lead passive lives when there are soooo many other important things going on that need attention. Gulf debacle anyone? I truly believe that many, if not most, Americans are living in this perpetually dysfunctional state of post traumatic stress. Between the irreversibly damaging joke which is politics to the daily tragedies we're all subjected to - it's little wonder. Game on I guess. Nobody or nothing is going to change these types of people. We're all DeVo.  :lol:

Gridiron sucks, there are a couple of small clubs around that play it, looks a little bit like Rugby League, except they stop the play all the time, why you have to stop play I don't have a clue, Rugby League doesn't.  Plus the players must be patsies, they dress like Darth Vader, oooo, I might hurt myself if someone touches me...

Thank Zeus we have no room for another football code here....

Just glad that those cheating French bastards are out.

And England

Urgh, it ain't over for us yet...

What World Cup would be complete without something that everyone can take home with them?

So, ladies and gentlmen I present you, this:

Damn, wish I'd noticed this thread when the football was on! I don't know how any team winning any game could actually affect a persons life unless they were on that team. Also in the UK it seems to be a time when lots of fights kick off in pubs when football is on. Not my idea of a good time...

[persia]

Football codes are like religions, soccer, gridiron, rugby league, rugby union, all claiming to be the true football.  Maybe someone could design a code to bring all the codes together....
