My comments about parochialism were not directed at you, or dyl, or mtthw, or anyone else who was being sensible.

They were directed at those who were flat-out bashing america and american sports.
😉 No worries, mate. I see it now.

America's love affair with insipid, over-hyped tedious sports such as baseball and American "football" (cough, cough) is indicative of their shallow, vacuous society where fast-food rules and words like foetus have to be simplified so that their moronic populus can spell properly.

Are we teaching our poplar trees to spell now?

Or are you part of the most moronic populous on the site?

Ouch.
Don't you hate that? Slagging off at someone for their spelling and then stuffing it up yourself ...

Ha Ha Ha Ha

I'm still laughing.

I hate the spelling police on this site.

But, this one was too good to let go.

It may have escaped your notice, but this thread was evolving nicely into a civilized discussion and debate about the differences and similarities between the sports that we play. I've enjoyed reading about cricket, and its vast differences from baseball in the Youtube thread, and I've enjoyed participating in discussions explaining the nuances of American football to the uninitiated.

If you would like to join our discussion, by adding some relevant insight or thoughtful questions, you're more than welcome to. If, instead, all you wish to do is to continue vomiting your vitriolic anti-America rant all over this thread, then I will ignore you from here on out. And I would ask the other participants of this and other threads to do the same.
