Desert Bus posted:My abusive father who loves football never taught me how the gently caress the game works but got mad when I didn't understand it. Then got more mad when I thought it was a nonsense game rooted in racism once I asked? Please Goons help me understand this game. I'm a long term Mt:G/HS player this should not be so loving opaque. I would love to know how it works and how to interpret the rules beyond "black men destroy their bodies in the service of their white overlords." no

The Bloop posted:seriously though I'm surprised more nerds don't like football Not only that but it's a weekly episodic with story lines, rivalries and things that culminate in season finales which can't be spoilered and happen in real time.

Chief McHeath posted:They played with a big football? How much bigger was it than a regular one? Everyone up to the NFL plays with a slightly 'rounder' football. The NFL's ball is a bit narrower and slightly (less than an inch) longer. The NFL adopted the change to the shape of the ball as the forward pass became more common at the pro-level than it did at the collegiate. The narrower ball is ever so slightly easier to grip by the QB and thus easier to pass.

super sweet best pal posted:It'd be better if they just left the clock running and forced them to set up their plays as fast as possible. That's gonna be a hard sell to the others who've already expressed concern over player safety issues in this thread.

ChunTheUnavoidable posted:love the idea of a German guy who’s really into american football as a weird hobby There's a dude named David Bada who plays for Washington who was born in Munich. There's a group of fans that always drape German flags over the rails for him and wear his jersey and go nuts for him.
