Violence is not the least bit why i watch football. Watching Reggie Bush is like poetry in motion or seeing a 70 yard bomb tiped and caught.

And That still doesn't make it better, NFL is over - commercialised, Rugby .. is under...
It's not just the UK who play or watch rugby though.Quote:
Because there are millions of people in the USA! And much less people in the UK! [/b]
Have any of you who said you don't like rugby actualy played it?
If not you should, you would see it does take a lot more skill than you think and it is a good game.
This is like an apples and oranges debate. These are two very different games. :P
P.S. For the sake of hypocrisy: I like Rugby, but not as much as FOOTBALL (soccer)

Vermilion, amen to that brother.
Shit, I thought it was exactly the same thing.
Lol rabs xD
I enjoy football more, more tactical etc, however rugby is fun too, its probably because when i get to watch football i do, i can watch rugby alot, heck i go down to the local club alot (they PWN :| though, if they keep doing as well as they do and get moved up to 1st dvision, (under he Zurich premier) then they wont have enough money :()
And about the pads thing, some rugby players wear pads too, just not mega huge ones..

Nobody commented on my diagrams :'( They where good diagrams too.
I did, and I quote
"True, but there are also flea flickers (pitch passes) and laterals in Football too. So in all reality, your Rugby diagram could work in the NFL too. So that's no argument."
It's in the first post, in my big rant.
Swabs, I gotta hand it to you for not giving up, and being a good sport. Cheers. ^_^
^^ I'm not the kind of person to degrade into a from of argument invloving insults and things like that. Civilised debates are much better:)
