So I've had a channel pack with ESPN classic and ESPN America,and I've starting watching,well, American Football.


And I think it's epic, I mean,it's raw power,it's sex. It's sooo much fun to watch!
I find it just amazing,with all the plays,defensive and offensive lines,individual acts of brilliance,so much is going on at the same time.

Me being European,I think I can rightly say we never hear anything about American Football,so this is totally new for me.
Though football is still my passion and I love it to bits,American Football with the NFL,college football and what not is,I find,very exciting to watch.


So guys,what are your thoughts? What teams do you support and why? Is it popular in the clan?




Btw,a lot of footballing terms are relatively unknown to me .

Penn State Nittany Lions
BIG 10 (the division[with 12 teams xD])

Welcome to American Football!

For college I root for LSU (Louisiana State University) since my dad went there.

For professional (NFL) teams, I support my Philadelphia Eagles. Although unfortunately our first game resulted in a loss and a slew of injuries.

Hehe,thanks.

I hate it when players get injured,it's one of the worst things to see when a player gets injured,especially serious ones witch could cause them never to get back to their previous level. =( Hate it.

For college ball, i support the Wisconsin Badgers


And for the NFL, my team is the Green Bay Packers ( i <3 Wisconsin sports) who are 1-0 after beating blazin's Philadelphia Eagles on sunday:D

Well, I'm from the deep south of Louisiana, so of course I root for LSU and the Saints!

You should totally get on the Who Dat band wagon!

Do many people play rugby over the pond?

not really... we play american football, not really rugby (least its damn near impossible to find a team) or your like me and play ultimate frisbee

My high school has a rugby team, and they're pretty good. But yeah, I've come to enjoy football "Soccer", especially since Germany made it so far in the World Cup, might have to see about trading with you Brits.

"Over the pond" means the Atlantic lol.

Whaaaa? I thought you Frenchies/Belgians were all about Rugby?

Screw American football. I play and watch a real man's sport...FUTBALL! (SOCCER)

Haha, you tell them Austynn!

Although i do enjoy watching some NFL every now and then, its a great game!

I don't support a team, anyone have any reccomendations to what team i support? please don't say the champions, don't want to be a glory hunter! but then again don't give me the worst Pro's and con's for the team you've given me

Right now, i've got a soft spot for Indianapolis Colts and Dallas Cowboys, no reason, just everytime i watch a game, i always look for one of those teams

ma big bro likes the baltimore ravens

My dad is a Colts fan and from what I hear Patton Manning is great quarterback. so you might want to just support them I guess. Also that football team's state is directly above my state on the map
