Dugan Ragged on by Americans for Ray Lewis Tattoo

[skeepe]

:shock: I've heard the same thing said about fumbleball, so struggle to take that argument seriously as a result.

Having been to an NHL game I can say its absolutely true. The whole game day experience is absolutely amazing. They have something like 40+ home games a season yet still manage to make each one feel like a massive event.

What a f**ken faygot

 

[Matchball]

This makes me hate Canberra more than ever. Bogan team of tards.
Dugan, Fergusson, Sandor etc.

 

[Tweek]

yeh it's not like Americans to call their teams world champions when there is only one country in the comp is it?

well they probably are world champions, what team in the world would beat them?

 

[Tone83]

Confirms that duges isn't origin material imo.

 

[Hanscholo]

obviously has his mind on the season.

 

[hrundi99]

Hockey is the best of the lot...

 

[God-King Dean]

Next time he has a flog he better aim left...

I have absolutely no interest in Superbowl or any American based sport to be honest. Hence my lack of knowledge.

When a country calls their national competition a World Series, such as baseball (where no teams from other countries compete), my attention is zero.

No worries. Horses for courses. Just giving a bit of background on Ray. He is a larger than life character. Not sure how league fans would take him to be honest lol.

I'm a sports nut and watch all sorts of stuff. It seems like overkill at times - the NBA play on christmas day - but overall I love watching sport from all over the world and I do it every day. And SportsCenter is a pretty slick show.

LOL, a tattoo on a player actually makes you hate a team more than you already do over the '89 Grand Final? Lighten up Francis.

I think it's weird it's the 'world' series but whatever. I still enjoy it and my team won this season

I love American sports. Only one I seem to not be able to get into is NHL.

Your team pumped my team 4 nil in the finals series

Go the mighty Tigers

Yeah same with NHL although I can take or leave NBA. I watch it if I'm a captive audience (at the gym) but I don't go of my way.

Saying which I was watching OT of a College game in the gym today between OSU (Oklahoma State) and Baylor

17 seconds left, Baylor leading by 1 and they drive to the basket. OSU force a turnover, rush down the other end and score the most unbelievable basket with 0.2 seconds left. What a finish to a game!

Yeah I've heard that argument from afl fans its complete hogwash that game is completely unwatchable whether on tv or at the ground

This blog helps explain why Hockey is better to watch in person rather than on tv

I never got the ncaa scene until I watched a college bball game the other night Ohio State vs Michigan, game went down to the wire and by the end I was yelling at the screen on a foul. Im gonna start watching more.
Someone once told me that the reason people follow college sport and not pro sport is that, the players arnt as good and make some mistakes, so it makes the game interesting and less predictable.

 

[Tone83]

Playing american football on the playstation you realise it's a great game, but it's hard to watch on tv for me. Very very slow and I barely see anything when something does happen.

 

[Timbo]

It's called the World Series because it was created and sponsored by a newspaper called 'The World'.

They just kept the name when the sponsorship ended because its catchy.

 

[Valheru]

Yep looked it up it was proven wrong. Apparently it's kept that name of World Series because players are scouted from all over the world and apparently around 30% of the MLB players are from other countries (which I thought was quite high)

It’s called the World Series because originally it was sponsored by the “news of the world” newspaper, hence World Series. It’s nothing to do with American arrogance/ignorance or where the players are from etc.

 

[whall15]

The World Series being named after a newspaper is a myth.

[Valheru]

Ha - well there you go. My bad

 

[betcats]

The NBA used to crown world champs until 86. Who cares, its the sport I enjoy not what the title or series they are trying to win is called.
