Well I don't even watch football anymore. One thing three hours is way to long, and the timeouts are ridiculous. Having been born and raised in Germany I understand the game of Soccer a lot better. The game lasts a total of 90 minutes 45 minute each, and there are no time outs. After 45 minutes the times change their places. Only the goal keeper is allowed to to touch the ball with hand, the players have to have to use the foot. (that's why it is called Fuss ball ) Fuss is the German word for foot.

They can also use their head. The only way a player can use his hands if he is doing the throw in.

If a game ends in a tie, both teams repeat the next week.

Ever listened to Andy Griffith explanation for those (like I) who the rules of American Football makes no sense?

ANDY GRIFFITH WHAT IT WAS, WAS FOOTBALL

Lol, thanks for the link. Very funny:)

Being from Alabama, naturally I’m a college football fanatic. I was so proud of the classy way that the Bama team conducted themselves while visiting the White House.

I agree about the timeouts and all the penalties. Becomes very tedious.

I don’t get to see many soccer (football) matches but I actually enjoy them. I enjoy the European leagues more than the American MLS because it’s obvious how much the sport means to the fans.

I’m looking forward to the World Cup.
