    In America and Australia it's called Soccer. Here, we have our own football, it's called the Australian Football League, and it seems really pussy to Americans because their football is all eggheads ramming each other and it looks tough. Soccer seems pussy to us because you could snap the players like a twig and they look like pussys chasing the ball. We have a good-ly balanced sport.

    So, three different kinds of 'football'. Ours is the only real one, and the only good one :)

    • Oh OK, I was wrong Mr. England. I was wrong about the sport that is not only the sport of my country, but the sport of my state. You moron. See, I thought Aussie Rules was EVERY football team in Australia, ALF or non-ALF football teams, professional or kiddie league. I thought our NATIONAL sport was AFL, however we all PLAY Aussie Rules on the weekend. But no, apparently I have been wrong all these 15 years I have been an AFL follower, according to Mr. English Soccer dude. Go away and build a bridge, sport isn't the be all and end all. Your name is obsessive. Unsubscribed.
