I always just assumed miller was another of our terrible american beers, heck natural ice and key stone is more drinkable than bud coors.

As a citizen of both the US and Belgium, currently living in Belgium, I'm torn at who to root for. Both countries have their pluses and minuses but at this point I think I'm gonna root for Belgium. I'm also going to go downtown and drink a shitload of Belgian beer and eat a shitload of frites and watch the chaos ensue.

Soccer blows out loud all day every day. Get a smaller field, actual substitution rules and fix pretty much everything about scoring and loving winning games of soccer by not playing soccer and then maybe we'll talk.

Hey nascar is fun in person just because your drunk and near loud cars. Also you can't miss anything if you take a drunk nap for a couple hours, and its loud enough you don't have to talk to anyone while acting like you are part of a group.

Shameful what american doesn't like loud cars you asian?

get a timekeeper to keep stoppage time then tell everyone what it is exactly what it is. There I just made the end of your games more exciting because you are watching the players now not watching the ref wondering if hes gonna stop the game anytime soon.

A quick baseball game is often the most boring since it means a low scoring "pitcher's duel".

I went to a nascar race once and even with earpro it was so unfathomably loud that even in the nosebleeds you'd suffer hearing loss without it

that and it was just a bunch of drunk rednecks watching cars go in a circle, sorry, oval. nothing cool like a road course

I wasn't drunk though, maybe that's what I was doing wrong

Americans should just watch futsal or street soccer if all they care is more goals.

I went to a NBA match once and it was the most boring thing ever. There was a pause every five minutes for people to buy more food and soda.

Football is popular because anyone can and does play it in their backyard. It's OK you don't like it but don't act like American football or basketball is more interesting because it's not.

Generally, a fast baseball game is a low scoring one. There can be exceptions of course, but this is a general fact.
