I enjoy watching a game of AF, its sort of like the Americans version of cricket...where you go for the p1ss up as much as anything else.

Glorified Rounders.

Surprisingly, they're World Champions at that as well. icon_smile.gif

Well I was going to put it in the same thing in the main thread but decided that might be childish and annoying so I opened a thread for the detractors.

I just can't understand the hype hype hype. It has the basis for a half decent game and then they stop and start it every two seconds to show an advert.

And they have the gall to call the winners the world champions of football.

Only baseball can compete with this sport in the sheer boredom stakes.

Quote: Billy Banter "Basketball. Pah!

The only semblance of excitement comes not when someone scores (because it's so frequent), but when someone misses the basket. The 'action' is literally end to end, ad nauseum.

Plus you have to be a physical freak to play the game properly.

Yawn.'"

I think the last few minutes of a close basketball game can get pretty exciting though, well more exciting than NFL anyway.

Which is why they might as well just play a 5 minute match and scrap the rest of it. At least netball has something going for it....
