Anyone else play pickup football on Superbowl Sunday?

Post by AlaskaHawks »

Been doing this for quite a few years now. I love getting together and playing some football with the friends.

What are your traditions for game day?

Once and a while on Sunday morning me and my friends do go play football. It's great to go out there and kick the ball around.

As long as you have a good net minder, it's great. Usually it's some scrub who cant stop anything. At least for me.

Yeah, actually, the GK is normally solid for both sides.

Lol. Our games get heated. We have 2 fat guys that play, but they aren't really part of the game.

Soccer fans are so bitter.

It's okay though. I understand this is your only outlet. Don't wanna say it in public and catch a beating from real athletes.

It's popular in poor countries because of how cheap it is to play. They get offended when people call it football. Whatever, have your futbol, I'll keep the 'merican version

Yes, Germany and England are very poor countries.

Face the facts, American football is for uneducated hillbillies who just sit around each nacho cheese and drink moonshine.

If you thought the NBA was bad with flopping, watch a soccer game.

Looks like you are watching a diving competition at the Olympics.

Wrong, the NBA is on par with soccer as far as flopping.
