A question for non-Americans!

[Merkavar]

i thought the superbowl already happened but anyway.

i have only ever watch like 15 mins of a superbowl game in my life and do you know what, that 15 mins of the game took nearly a freaking hour for then to play with all the time outs and crap.

If all games are like that i dont know why it is even slightly popular.

I dont really watch sports that much but i would prefer to watch any thing else other than american football. Its too slow with all those plays and stuff.

I just finished work, and it was on TV, watched the opening ceremony, someone from Glee just sang America the Beautiful, and then Christina Aguilera sang the anthem, after that I stopped watching.

I was actually really interested in watching it but it goes on til 4am. that is just too long.

 

[Vignirj]

Nope, don't have a TV subscription. Can't say I would watch it even if I did.

 

[DragonBorn96]

No, the ony thing i know of the Steelers is in their Easter egg in Fallout 3, besides, im not really a sports person

 

[RichardThompson]

I'll respond with a question: Are YOU watching the Hurling final?

actually yes, but i'm from ulster so my opinion is invalid.
I have no interest in the mysteriously-named football, to which foot has so little infolvement it would be the equivalent of calling soccer handball because you do throw-ins, so no. But I know for a fact some of my class-mates are staying up for it.

 

[Foxbat Flyer]

No, do you watch the state of origin? I Know what it is, but i think, why watch sports that arent even in my country (other than olympics)... I support Australians not americans.... (Sorry, but my country comes first for me)

 

[Soullegend]

no way hoosay - american football is no different to rugby - wait what am i saying american football is very different to rugby.

The name for a kickoff is pretty poor and when it boils down to it, its no more violent than rugby, less interesting than rugby mainly because the players spend more time standing around doing sod all than playing and finally all the players are pretty boys who couldnt last a moment in a game of rugby.

 

[Zizzousa]

Tried to watch it a little, but seriously, WHY DO THEY KEEP STOPPING? I think they've spent more time paused than actually doing anything. The only thing that's better about this than the Six Nations is that Scotland can't possibly lose this one.

 

[Vouk]

I'm Austrian and I don't care for most sports.
But somehow football really entertains me. Don't know why!
And yes, I'm watching the Superbowl right now.

 

[Gitty101]

I have no intention on watching the Super Bowl. It perplexes me how something that only takes place in one country can be called a 'national' event...

Not my cuppa tea ^^

 

[octafish]

No. The closest I've come to an interest in Gridiron is playing PnP Blood Bowl as a kid. That got boring pretty quickly but we felt sorry for the guy who bought the books.

 

[Merkavar]

maybe if the super bowl was a real sport. like one that was played and finished in under 3 hours and the players werent covered in wussy armour from head to toe it might be worth watching

 

[The Afrodactyl]

Living in London, not watching the superbowl.

I normally watch a couple of NFL games a month, but I've never shown any interest in superbowls.

 

[Hashime]

The american game is boring compared to the Canadian game. I watch the grey cup.

 

[Tdc2182]

it is the most boring.

You should try watching Baseball and Nascar.

 

[Daniel Laeben-Rosen]

Honestly... No. I just don't care as such. I don't even care about the general sports in my own country. I'll watch the big events for hockey or football(as in soccer to you), or even handball if I feel like it.
But basically... I don't care about sports in any major way. At all. So... Super Bowl... Sorry, falls way off my radar.

 

[balanovich]

I won't
I don't care about it.

 

[thenumberthirteen]

No. I don't even know who's playing. Or how the game is played, or what they're playing for, or when it's on.

I'm much more interested in the Rugby.
