CaPn bOnEs 8527 Report post Posted February 19, 2012 yes pie, a world does exist outside of rugby and futbol... get over it... i actually wouldn't mind seeing some damn american sports fans here for once... the only sports discussions here involve soccer... i talk sports all the time IRL, but no one listens here because they only follow one sport...

ConQueSteD 552 Report post Posted February 19, 2012 American Football (Colts) and Baseball mostly (Reds), I haven't watched Basketball since Freshman year of High school. That's just Pro sports though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Massacre 7646 Report post Posted February 20, 2012 Only an idiot believes that something's popularity is indicative of its quality. Soccer is popular because most of the people in the world are stupid and are entertained by stupid things like "professional" sports. There is nothing even remotely entertaining about watching a bunch of proud americans running around a field kicking a ball. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Watching proud americans run around a field, kicking each other in there balls would be the funniest thing in the world *Imagins proud americans kicking eachother in the balls* *Starts rolling on the floor, dieing of laughter* *Cell phone on otherside of room* *Passes outtttttgfddftbxwujouwadb,,kio<#u65sw&25^UÜ7j,kjgvcdTwdfgjuyg,fcgggggggggggggg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CaPn bOnEs 8527 Report post Posted February 20, 2012 the bengals got rid of their cancer players, and AJ green is one hell of a receiver... i am a bears fan, lions second... i am actually happy to see the lions doing good, but i was a bears fan first, despite being a fan of detroit sports... i take it we're arch enemies in college sports then...

Massacre 7646 Report post Posted February 20, 2012 Probably not. Everyone hated the Buckeyes when I was in school in Ohio. I don't even like football and I still give a knowing nod when I see a Michigan fan. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CaPn bOnEs 8527 Report post Posted February 20, 2012 yea, it's kinda of funny to see the amount of ohio recruits michigan gets... but nothing pisses me off more than my local TV... i unfortunately get my news and TV from indiana, and what college resides in northern indiana?? the fucking worst of them all... notre dame... i am fucking sick of being told all about that piece of shit team that never wins, yet is loved by america... fuck the irish...

Massacre 7646 Report post Posted February 20, 2012 I only get my news online, so I'm spared sports news. Still, I run into a lot of Colts fans because I go to Indianapolis a lot, so I still hear plenty of shit I'm not interested in hearing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CaPn bOnEs 8527 Report post Posted February 20, 2012 yea, i get a lot of colts stuff too... but i get lucky because i also get illinois stations too so, i never miss the bears... EDIT: this should be renamed the american sports topic... no point in making a bunch of different threads for each sport... foreigners can have their soccer topic, and americans can have a conversation about a bunch of different sports...

angeal18 138 Report post Posted February 24, 2012 Someone today told me that Jeremy Lin was going to be the next Michael Jordon. lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CaPn bOnEs 8527 Report post Posted February 24, 2012 umm yea, no... kobe bryant is the next michael jordan, and there's currently no one else even close to the discussion... i am impressed with his game thus far, but he's got a loooooooooooooooooooooooong ways to go to be on jordan's level... if the knicks win a championship this year, he might be labaled as a top level PG... but he is no jordan, and never will be...

Handsome B Wonderful 331 Report post Posted February 25, 2012 I was a MJ fan when I was a kid, and the Bulls still do it for me, although there wasn't much to cheer about for a long time there. At least I've stayed loyal. All my friends who were into the Bulls back in the day all support whoever is doing the best atm. Hence why the few people I know who follow the NBA support either the Heat or the Knicks. For those who are interested, here are the American teams I follow NBA: Bulls NHL: Canucks (speaking of which, where the heck is Darth Sexy? He was a SJ Sharks fan, if I remember correctly) NFL: Raiders, Eagles MLB: Cubs, although I don't really follow baseball that much. Speaking of basketball, I hope the dream team gets drawn with Great Britain at this year's olympics. The poms may as well just play Luol Deng on his own.

CaPn bOnEs 8527 Report post Posted February 25, 2012 yea, the bulls turned their good fortunes around when they landed the #1 pick and took rose a few years ago... the pistons have been in re-building mode the past few years, but we have a young center to build the team around... greg monroe is turning into a stud in middle, one of future stars of this league, and he's taking on more of a leadership role in only his second season... the guy is gonna be the total package, we just need to put some talent around him... might as well do my breakdown as well; NBA: detroit pistons NFL: chicago bears MLB: detroit tigers NHL: detroit redwings (i don't really follow hockey that much) COLLEGE: university of michigan wolverines everybody's a cubs fan around my little spot in michigan... there's a good amount of detroit fans, but chicago sports leaks into my part of the state way too much, but i am a bears fan, so it does have it's perks i guess... i do like the detroit lions, but i liked the bears first...
