  • @sonbello61 This is a popular misconception. The "World Series" had nothing to do with a world championship. It was started by the New York World newspaper as sponsor of the US baseball championship.

    Rugby players aren't tackled by a horde of 300 pound men.  Unless you want to spend the rest of your live as a quadriplegic, you're fond of frequent concussions, or you're a total idiot, you wear pads in football.

    "There is absolutely no creativity in soccer "i played soccer all my life" but football is a chess game."

    Are you saying playing a sport using you own initiative & independent thought to make decisions is somehow LESS CREATIVE than memorizing a book of choreographed tactics & then re-enacting them on the field??

  • love this vid, the language thing is correct but the creativity point is way off. There is absolutely no creativity in soccer "i played soccer all my life" but football is a chess game. As i understand Football more and more, i have grown a passion that superpassed that of soccer. Give it a try and see if you like it. Everyone is different, no need to fight which sport is better. They are both good.

  • Country anymore !!! It's Japan china Germany .... So shut up america and go back in your little dream world !!!

  • Football ( in America it's called soccer ) is played by 90% of the world, so in 90% of all countries the favorite sport . And American football ( the rest of the world besides USA it's called wrestlingball ) is just the favorite sport in USA or not even that cuz of baseball !!! You see America !! I don't think that soccer how you call it is for little girls!!! Maybe in USA it's just a girl sport !!! But nobody in this world cares about America anymore !!! America or USA isn't the strongest coun

  • Soccer players have great hair dressers.

  • @Cheps69 Fair enough we'll call it the US or The USA, but what do we call the inhabitants????? besides Colonists obviously.
