Man, Im from the South where Football holds throne and I think Hockey is one of the most kick *** sports thier are. Although the closest I\'ve ever came to actually playing it is playing roller hockey.

Wait, wait... no... wait....
Videoholic complaining about spam?!!? Where\'s my printscrn button, I gotta get this on record!!
Funny, too, you were interested in talkin\' about this game untill the US lost.... PROOF! (http://www.psx2central.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=19052)
As for the millitary thing... well.. uh... damn.

yeah see thats how us americans are... when we win we rub it in for years... when we lose it might as well never happened.
-
This thread is defintaly not spam, so lets carry on w/this little convo.
oh yea, where were we? hmm......Canada got lucky. :crying:
-
Lucky: Belarus beating Sweden 3-2 after being outshot 47-18, and being completely outplayed for 60 minutes.
Not Luck: Canada beating the US 5-2, with better chances, and controlling the play better for 2.5 periods (the beggining of the third was scary :eek: ), well, that\'s just.. fate... or destiny.
-
SCREW CANADA.. sorry i was just saying that all day after i watched the game. yea i think we can give canada their props at hockey because thats bout all they got on us.... and the mounties, theyre pretty kewl too...
-
Well I think Canada disserved to win the game because they really wanted it....but it\'s just hard to see the U.S. take a defeat in that game seeing as the NHL has pretty much every great Canadian hockey player there is. What\'s even more wack, is Canada, if Im correct were the last expected to win the gold, oh well guess they proved themselves. Thats ok, USA will suck it up and bring on a hell of a rath in 2006 :evil:

yea sorry bout that one psx_j but i dont think anyone besides canadians are proud of them, everyone else just seems pretty pissed off about it. but like i said i guess we can give the props to them.. this time

Hey, Apollo did well! He won the first two, and it\'s not his fault Rusty fell in the relay.
Oh, and whatever you say, that was a close game. The score was close for most of it, too. They came so close more than once in that there 3rd period. Of course, when the Canucks scored a goal in the third, the USA\'s efforts probably died down a bit, letting in another, and not scoring. Ah well, Canadia was better. Too bad they didn\'t get eliminated back in the beginning (you know it coulda happened; if they\'d played Russia or USA, or almost anyone but Germany then, they woulda been gone). At least we got a silver, and the North Americans totally dominated the Games (And a lot of the good players on the other teams were NHL, too! Hurrah!).

Ahem.
Everyone else? (He means about 2/3 or 3/4 Americans)
Believe me, I\'m sure that after Sweden got eliminated, most of europe was behind Canada. I\'m sure most Russians were, as well.
Don\'t take this the wrong way, but a lot of the world really doesn\'t like the US, because it\'s so self-centered and arrogant. The week that a european jet crashed, killing all aboard, 1 Canadian, no Americans? CNN had 24 hour coverage of Lewinsky or OJ (Can\'t remember which it was), including panels about how important this scandal was.
That\'s why the US will never be as popular internationally as Canada is.

Well damnit what do you think makes us American, our good looks, personality, the amazing size of our genitals. why yes, all of those.. but we are also known for our self-centeredness and arrogance.. im sorry, but thats what makes me an american.. and a damn proud one at that :crying: sorry just got a little emotional there.
-
haha you suck in football.. sorry, and you have too many lines, you cant even play the game right. and your footballs too big, and your goal posts are in the front.. tsk tsk. always behind but thats what makes you those lovable canadians.. and the mounties, tee hee, gotta love those mounties :p
sorry but if you get to make fun of us because of hockey we get bragging rights to football, and baseball, and basketball, blah you get it.

Actually, Canadian football is much more fun to watch. Because it\'s three downs, and wider fields, they have only two carries to get a first down. That means they do a lot more passing, and outside running, rather than US football, in which a lot of teams just pound it straight up the middle for 3-4 yards each play. Worst football I\'ve ever watched. I\'d love to see an NFL team take on a CFL team on our sized field. Our passing and running skills would decimate them, and they would keep getting 7 yards then punting. :D
Heh heh, now it\'s on. :p
-
blah blahdy blah blah eh? we produce people like doug flutie who burn out in a couple years blah blah eh? we think were good at everything because we can speak french too. blah blah blahbady blah... eh? id like to see a CFL pass it against the Ravens Secondary or run against the Bucs. It\'s just not gonna happen, you blabber on about how you can pass. well if youre offense sucks, and the defense sucks, then youre still gonna be able to make good plays. eh? stick to hockey please :)
-
Canadian Football sucks. Give me a break "Its more fun to watch" crap
-
america has the best football players though.
you game is a little different yes but our athletes in the nfl make your cfl dudes shudder with fear.
seriously, if your good, you play in the nfl. thats it.
just like the nba, no other basketball league can hang with the nba cause anybody good already plays in the nba.
i would like to see the look on the face os some CFL RB at 5\'11 195 lbs see brian urlacher chugging full speed right at him. Or ray lewis. or derrick brooks.
the NFL has better players. and thats what counts.
now maybe if you take the best CFL team vs. the worst NFL team that would be a game.

Well, that\'s almost an intelligent reply.
The simple fact is, CFL football is more entertaining. Yeah, we don\'t have the caliber of players that the NFL does, but it isn\'t because we don\'t create them, or they don\'t play here for a bit, but once they reach a certain level, they just make too much money in the NFL. Most NFL games are a bunch of strong 300 pound guys running the ball 4 yards at a time, both ways. Booooooooooooooooring. The XFL was even more entertaining, only anytime someone good started to show out of the crowd, they left for the NFL, so duh, no wonder that stuff fails.
PS - Yeah, I know about the other XFL problems, but they definitely had a few good ideas that the NFL should adopt. Not the least of which was a salary cap.
-
The Salary Cap should be put in place in every major N>American sport
only a fool who cannot do basic mathematics would realize how much not having a salary cap is hurting other sports
and Canadian football IS NOT MORE ENTERTAINING> I quite think the product sucks largely.

Candian football is like watching womens football, it would only be interesting if they played in bikinis.

This was almost a stupid reply, oh wait, it was.
The NFL too boring because they dont pass? if they dont pass so much how are Art Monk, Jerry Rice, John Elway, Joe Montana, etc, etc, such great names known everywhere? yea thats wut i thought, and if thats still not enough, can you say... rams? and if you wanted to come out of the closet and admit your gay, id have done it a better way than to say the XFL was kewl, im sorry, but thats a big no-no.
-
The NFL will always dominate the CFL, no matter what happens later on. Though, there have been some good products to come out of the CFL to be real big players in the NFL (Jeff Garcia, Warren Moon, Doug Flutie).
The thing is, the NFL is so much more strategic than the CFL, the CFL is just pass the ball down the field and see who can score more points over a time limit, while the NFL teams set up their opponents with a game plan, work at their weakneses, and exploit them for all they\'re worth. The Coaches and Players who can do this the best make the most money, thus, making them superstars. Props to the guys who can make a good transition from CFL to the NFL.
Outside of all this, though? College Football owns both the NFL and the CFL :D
See Yuz.

Perhaps, since your new here, you haven\'t read the rules. Personal insults aren\'t tolerated on the forums. You could PM me a personal insult if you would like, but please, please, try and make them more entertaining/original. Barring that, at least make them funny.
However, I didn\'t say all the teams in the NFL play the pushdown way. The reason those names you mention are famous are because they\'re the ones who do something different. I would love to see NFL teams play with CFL rules. If they did, I\'d probably watch most of the season, instead of just the superbowl.
I can see, that this point of view is in the minority. So, even though my opinion hasn\'t changed, I\'ll respect that most people like the NFL just the way it is, apparantly.

If Canadian football were any good then you would see it here in the states. No one cares about it because it blows. I\'ve watched a couple games in the past and it\'s not for me. Actually it\'s like XFL type players. Man did that ever blow. I wish we could really have a world champion in football. It would just be stupid though. Any NFL team would beat the best Canadian team and by far blow away the best Euro team.
