What's a superbowl? -----Original Message----- From: Ray Zorz [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, 5 February 2002 15:14 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: The day after superbowl Best of the best.

And perhaps those tough guys ought to put the pads on and take a hit from Ray Lewis or Levon Kirkland. In the early days of the NFL, many players did play offense and defense. But as the game became more popular, it also became more sophisticated, and as such lead to specialization. The idea is it's the best of the best doing what they do best - run, catch, block, hit, throw. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Glenn Corbett Sent: Monday, February 04, 2002 3:33 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Re: The day after superbowl I think the reason more Aussies dont try is that American football is right down near the bottom of the list of career choices. Soccer (Real Football), Aussie Rules, Rugby Union, Basketball, Rugby League, Baseball, and even Cricket (possibly even Curling) are above American Football. Aussie rules is a bit of a wierd game, sort of a cross between soccer (strategy) and rugby (voilence). Its those damn tight shorts I think. I dont want to spend my weekend looking at lots of men running around in tight shorts *shudder*. Basically the yanks are seen as wimpy for putting on all that padding before playing a game of "footy". Rugby League (whilst I cant be called a fan), has about 1/4 the padding of AF, but the tackles are as equally violent. Also those breaks seem to interrupt the flow of the game IMHO "damn, we ran 10 yards, better stop for a few minutes to compose ourselves". Oh, and whats the deal with that ghey dancing when they score a touchdown ? Are they surprised they managed to make it to the end of the field without a map ?? I can understand the carrying on with soccer, since goals are few and far between (typically). And why do they have an Defensive and Offensive team, cant the Americans manage to do both ? :) Glenn Australian by Choice ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ray Zorz" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Exchange Discussions" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, February 05, 2002 8:55 AM Subject: RE: The day after superbowl > I dunno how that would be.
