Can we just mix MMA and soccer for a more violent form of rugby? Maybe get some of our prison pop to put on some spiked pads and play soccer? Make fire works shoot off and night ranger play whenever a goal is scored. I'm just trying to throw out idea to make america care. Add some obstacles/traps to field. multi level fields?

Some of the original settlers in, you know, new england, were English ethnically but that was 300 years ago. Everybody from everywhere has been moving here ever since and everybody is just loving 24/7 making babies I'm not sure how we're English now

nobody enjoys baseball but rather we endure it. to leave before the 7th inning stretch is sinful because it makes you seem like a pussy bitch when real americans swing by concessions to grab some beer and tough it out and then drive home inebriated

I sincerely enjoy baseball. I'd even watch a game where I had no rooting interest.

That said, its a sport you take in differently than any other sport. It's more leisurely.

It's great on the radio! You're outside at the grill, having a few, the radio on in the background - it's perfection.


Being at the game is the best though, since crowd watching is so fun.

Yes. I'm high.

Who cares where the genes came from, the English themselves are a mongrel race anyway. Britain is nothing but a melting pot of neolithic tribes, Celts, Romans, Germans, Vikings, and Normans. 230 million Americans speak English as a first language, that's uh, pretty loving English.

I don't get why everyone thinks Belgium is so good. They have one or two good players, but so does the US.

I'm not saying it'll be a walkover for the US, but it's not a long shot.
