    Football is a global sport and Americans seem to have a lot of games that are consumed only by Americans.

    American Football, Baseball, Ice Hockey, the elections

    All fun for a bit of a laugh but the rest of the world doesn't really care ...

    I tried watching the superbowl once but I didn't enjoy the sport interupting all my advert watching.
    many people complain about the advertising.

    I couldn't agree more.

    US television has become almost unwatchable because of the advertising.

    But, that doesn't reflect on the sport, just the coverage.

    association football is a great sport. american football is also a great sport.

    Wait, there are other sports outside America? Never would have thought that.

    There are plenty of other country sport threads in the sports forum.

    Actually, I wish Cricket were on my TV as much as 'footie' is. I'd like to see some real games.
