YAWN waiting for excitement in american handball you'll be waiting till fucking doomsday.

SOCCER = more played game, SOCCER = more popular game (by fucking miles)

Pity you morons can;t get that through your heads, probably the jealousy knowing that some american sport with a retarded name to boot isn't popular on a world wide basis.

why hasnt nfl euro taken off much in europe?
because all europeans know how much better soccer and rugby are. If you got to know the games, you'd realize they are so much more exciting than any mlb game and the majority of nfl and ncaa games. There are the exception though, like the superbowl, orange bowl, sugar bowl, and a few others. Those are fairly entertaining.

lol, classic line from the simpsons soccer episode:

Kent Brockman: ''Center passes to forward...forward passes to center....center passes to forward....foward passes back to center...center holds it...holds it...holds it.....''

Mexican announcer: ''Center passes to forward! Forward passes to center! Center back to forward! Foward back to center! Center holds it! Holds it! HOLLLLDS IT!''

What would be classic for baseball? The commentators talking about the weather for 15 minutes before another pitch is thrown. oOo:

For american handball the commentators probably remark on the players remarkable accuracey with the spitoon over 10 yards. oOo:

BullSHIT, soccers too easy? if thats the case why dont games go like 30-40 goals like american football and baseball games can go in points? Simple because soccer is much harder to actually score in.



SOCCER > american football>baseball

End of discussion

Basketball and football you get more points a score. But soccer takes shitloads of skill. plus requires more stamina than ANY other sport.

And baseball is just whacking a ball? see right there you are being a hypocrite, thesse balls are twisting, turning. at high speeds.

or even a straight ball going 98 mph. Think about it, dick hammer.

youve never been to an ncaa game before

Pyro 10-21-2003 11:44 PM

If you knew football you also use your feet to punk the ball. and Goalies can use their hands in Soccer. So techically calling it football is wrong because a player can use every part of their body but their hands and goalie vcan use everything. Why not call it headball, or chestball.

Soccer is alright to play and very boring to watch, it's just abck and forth back on forth...like a shot every 10 minutes.

What cause the pro boreball..sorry baseball camp thinks all this behind the scenes shit counts. If thats the case check out some of the soccer behind the scenes stuff, its only WORLDWIDE news as opposed to 1 country. oOo:

That fag beckham anyone? His splitup with ferguson was reported globally.

rofllmao. happy:

you think im talking about gossip? fuck no. im talking about the mind games. since ive been called out to explain these underlying game within games and scenarios. ill give you few.

ppl who hate baseball or think its boring: they see a pitcher pitch the ball, and the batter tries to hit it.

in reality, every pitch is a mind game. the pitcher is trying to trick the hitter into thinking whats coming next. if the pitcher has the count, 0-1, 1-2, the pitcher will pitch away, in the dirt, up high....or he could go right down the middle. the batter has to constantly think what the pitcher might do. if there is someone on base, he could bunt, hit and run, try to go the other way, hit a fly ball to advance the runner...

misconceptions: baseball non-understanders biggrin: > get really mad and frustrated when the pitcher keeps throwing over to first to keep the runner close. there are many underlying reasons for this. most of them arent to keep the runner from stealing. it could be done to frustrate the hitter, who becomes impatient after 4 throws to first, consequently striking out in frustration. it can be done to slow the pace of the game, if the opposing team has a rally going, alot of the time the pitcher will throw over to first to try and ice the batters.

many non fans do not know about "signs" . baseball signing is an artform, there are hundreds of variations of signage. there are also professional "sign stealers". this is mostly kept quiet, its usually a bench coach who is a 30 to 40 yr veteran and his specialty is to crack or steal the other teams signs. if your team has a good one of these stealers, you can figure out when their runners will steal, so you can put on a pitch out....etc. very interesting, very few know about them.

baseball players are fat, lazy, and unatheletic. < biggest misconception ever. just because there are a few overwieght pitchers (mostly american league) somehow this has become a running joke. look at any team, most of the players were multi sport atheletes in college and are in incredible shape.

there is countless areas i can delve into about the intricacies of the game, i have barely tipped the iceberg on them here. i just wanted to answer your "until someone else speaks up" challenge. well, here you go, plenty to read. like i said earlier, since you hate my beloved game you will just continue to reply with snide, unfactual remarks. this is something you dont know about tripper. i certainly dont argue with you about the hiphop culture, because i dont know much about it. i know alot about baseball, feel free flame away. i just did this to prove there is much more to this game than is on the surface. freak:

ROFL.

Is that it? That's the underlying game in baseball?

I KNEW about most of that shit. I thought the underlying game was gonna be something more interesting. I used to watch MLB on ESPN and I know what the rules are.....I'm not a moron.

.....LMAO.......Knowing that shit didn't make it ANY more interesting. I guess that blows THAT out of the water....... happy:

Listen up - I'm not pissing on the people that like the game, just stating an OPINION, something that you shouldn't worry so much about - Probably bad for your health....It's quite amusing how you've gotten all antsy over posts in this thread that you could have just ignored.

GG Dude.......Hahaha....!

....And my opinion still stands - SOCCER, RUGBY, HOCKEY > BASKETBALL, FOOTBALL, CRICKET > BASEBALL.

JBird 10-22-2003 12:01 AM

cricket you wear pads , use a flat paddle to hit a ball that is tiny compared to a baseball. and fuck knows what the hell rounders is. gerard you are being such a little bitch about this its ridiculous. to go on would be utterly useless. i dont even think your arguing about sports here, your just trying to agravate ppl. americans and canadians mostly. settle down a little bit, calmdown: deep breaths. who cares what sport is better. annoy:
