I'm a north american who doesn't follow american football. If you're an american you think I'm a freak, if not you don't realize what a handicap this is. I can't tell you how many conversations have died as a result. Especially at this time of year. Someone will bring up football, and I just say "yeah.. heh"... followed by an akward silence.
It would be nice to be a fan... just for the social aspect... but I can't make myself care.
Any other outsiders out there?

Football is the Fantasy interface for the American Male.

well, if you're a straight American male, you probably don't like football , plus, you can't play it in a dress, what good is it?

I hate football British+American. I think its boring. I dont wanna watch guys run about in shorts or them tight lycra pants... if it was women then maybe id watch it ;P

well, i don't understand why football isn't progressive to the point of being somewhat futuristic. I mean, if ya'll want the Matrix, then let's have it....quarterback has five buttons attached to his helmet, when he presses one, he is able to teleport to an ancient Roman coliseum/sushi bar where high paying spectators watch him do battle with various cloned and hyrbidaizations of jungle animals (saw this the other night on Fox TV with athletes competing against animals) but this also includes jellyfish and manta rays, clones of their abusive fathers, women dressed as US Taliban in Football Jersey Chadoors, etc...all manner of enemy combatants.....

FOOTBALL is a game played with a round shaped ball and the only people who can pick it up during the game are the goalkeepers.
If it's AMERICAN FOOTBALL your on about, then, yes, i'm in agreement, it's tedious.

honestly, i really dont even know who played in the superbowl last night. i just dont care. it has no meaning in my life and i just really couldnt care less.
i played football for 4 years in junior high and highschool. id like to think that i was pretty good at it. i loved playing. but i quit to pursue music.
when i think back on playing, i have many fond memories, but i dont regret my decision to quit and i have never looked back once.
i would rather clean my apartment than watch a game. and it does create some awkward situations when i explain this to people.
