| 1326438 | 2013-02-04 02:02:00 | Not a fan personally but still wondering if anyone is following the NFL - Super Bowl that is on today? It's always cracked me up how Americans call their National Sports *World Championships* . It's like the Chefs winning the NPC to be named World Champs in Rugby . . . (oh wait a few of those boys are!) . ***SPOILERS BELOW*** 28 - 6 Ravens up just after half time . |

The general public still appear to believe and gloat that it is a global competition As far as the NFL goes, not my cup of tea. Still, I have 'merican friends who enjoy it. |

| 1326447 | 2013-02-04 19:41:00 | Not a patch on the Stanley cup, American football is just rugby for wimps and posers But least it's on FTA TV unlike here where rugby is pay TV only. In fact there is a lot of major sports in the US that is on FTA as well as pay . Baseball I think is the only one that's not on FTA.. |
