Here, this may be unfamiliar to you at first, but keep looking & hopefully you'll be able to make some sense out of it.
I'm serious. No matter how hard it is for you to believe, the majority of the world doesn't even have a clue about "American football".
I understand the Japanese picked up baseball in the 60s, or something, but apart from that, your country is highly irrelevant to sports worldwide.
People just don't care about your circuses.
Let me put this in simpler terms - the "foreigners" that you deal with in this forum are a bit more knowledgeable about the world than your average person.
The vast majority are as clueless & ignorant about anything outside their home town as you are.
Here's the only map that matters. The one of the KINGS OF THE MOTHERFUCKING WORLD.
Now take your foreign inferiority complex elsewhere. You are sounding like a whiny bitch.
Kings of the Motherfucking World?
That's a map of the United Mexican Emirates, not China you dumbass.

"If the American people had ever known the truth about what we (the BCE) have done to this nation, we would be chased down in the streets and lynched." - Poppy Bush, 1992
This is true. It doesn't figure a great deal in sports coverage here in the UK. I don't know about the rest of Europe. I think they tried to start up an American Football league in recent decades, but the thing is sport is really a deeply cultural thing. It's in the place, and it's in people's histories and traditions. There's a reason why it's American Football and not Australian Rules Football or Rugby.
Those are all sports that in their own ways have found it difficult or impossible to transplant into other cultures that don't have some sort of shared history. Rugby is more widely played, but mostly -- with a few exceptions (Romania, Italy, etc) it is a sport of the ex-British Empire. So, it's mainly a cultural thing, part of the cultural heritage.
THINK LIKE THE WAVES
Seriously, this is what passes for entertainment these days? This sucks. They should have had Winger play the whole show.
Well, if there is one country - or amalgamation of countries, or whatever it is you call that mess you guys live in - where American sports would take root, would be the UK, or one of its countries, damn this is confusing to word correctly.
As you said, it's a cultural thing & the UK, for better or worse, shares the most with Von's shithole in terms of culture.
All this to say, if you guys don't give a fuck about American sports, then imagine the rest of the world. Nada. Zero. Zilch, fuck all!
Then Ed comes out on the field, with his electric twanger geetar and gets run over by both teams running back out onto the field. Holy shit that would be the best half time show EVER!!!
Well, it is on TV now! BBC -- so theoretically accessible to the whole country. But it is nearly 2am here, and therein lies one of the big differences -- time zones. For me it is just colourful shapes occupying my visual field as I sink yet another beer, and blast Live Bootleg by Aerosmith and ask myself, 'am I having another ...?'
Yeah, we used to have the NBA season here, I don't know if we still do, but it was relegated to a low ratings channel despite being live, while the other channels just showed movies, or something.
Much as Von likes to inflate his country's importance, nobody really cares. There's Hollywood & not much else.
This game went exactly the way I wanted it to. The Hillary Clinton of the NFL - arrogant little self entitled bitch Cam Newton - got his ass handed to him. Repeatedly.
Oh Christ, they're playing Van Hagar in the background??
Yeah, I'm sure Newton would call me one, since he seems to have deluded himself into thinking he's the first black man to ever throw a football.
Guess he forgot about Warren Moon, who won the Rose Bowl in 1978 (before Bitch Newton was born, even) for the mighty UW Huskies, and then went on to play in the NFL for the Vikings, the Oilers, and the Seahawks.
You can tell Frankie Boyle is Scottish because of the awkward phrasing.
It's obvious he used Google to translate his text to English.
Moon never won a Super Bowl. But he was a great great QB. One of my all time favorites.
Doug Williams and Russell Wilson have won Super Bowls.
Air McNair was a great QB too.
How do you know Peyton Manning is a redneck?
Because the man is a multi-millionaire & could easily afford to drink whatever quality beer available and instead he talks about drinking Budweiser. Maybe that's why his head is so huge, from all the hangovers?
Well, Bud Light is the official beer of the NFL. And I think he is part owner in an AB distributorship. So yeah, it's this new thing called marketing. As if you didn't know that already
God damn it!
God fucking damn it. Now all of these F A T fucking white trash fans around here won't shut the fuck up for weeks.
I thought he was the part owner of the Papa John's pizza chain (which is why he's in so many of their commercials)
Speaking of marketing, Budweiser makes entertaining commercials even if their beer sucks ass. They opted for Helen Mirren doing a drunk driving PSA this time rather than the usual "horses doing funny things" gimmick, but she was funny.
Fuck, I dunno - go to Wyoming.
Wyoming? That shit hole?
How about some place a bit more pleasant like Hawaii or even Alaska?
Well, Wyoming might not be so bad after all.
This, for example, seems like a nice place to stop by the side of the road for a piss.
Watch it all get washed away into some reservoir or dam, so unsuspecting people can drink it.
Hey look, I found Pete's Bro home turf.
Oooh, lookit the pretty colours!
yeah, alright. Wyoming ain't so bad, I guess.
