Football more exciting than crappy USA sports

[DoTheFandango]

Baseball is the greatest sport ever. There is so much freaking strategy involved in every move, every pitch. There is science with every opition and every decision. It's boring to some, but I find it the single most interesting sport ever.

If the pitcher wants ground balls, he's going to pitch alot of cutting pitches and he's going to make sure he is placing them low and away. If he wants it hit to one side, he has to put it where he knows the batter will go for it, while it still would be safe to pitch.

The base running and hitting is another part that takes thought. If someone is on base, you have to make sure that you get it hit to a place the runner infront of you can advance as far as possible.

All this takes so much talent, people just don't even realize.

Ipswich (my team) were playing Portsmouth (my city) today, so I refrained from wearing my Ipswich scarf around town like I usually do

This is why millions of people flock to the stadium, this is what makes football great to watch, you don't see stuff like this is American Football, or Baseball, this is pure skill and enjoyment.

what exactly is it about that video that happens in soccer and not other sports aside from the fact that they are kicking the ball instead of doing other things with it? it seems to be a mix of guys miraculously pulling off showboating plays which luckily dont result in turnovers and guys executing short, effective plays. i assure you, there are showboaters and effective plays in pretty much all sports.

Don't know if you have ever played football.. but most things happening in that video isn't just something that happens every game for 90 minutes long, it's not something you just do. And most of it is something that prob 60 to 70% of the profootballers aren't even able to do DURING a game.. I am sure they can do it during a practice where it's no problem to fail. But during a match, doing something like that..

(I don't know THAT much about American Football) But doing MOST of the things in that vid, is like the same as in an American Football match where one of them would take the ball throw it up in the air diving past 2 defenders catch it again and run or.. or something like that.

That is all stuff you don't just do, because it's not easy to just do it, and the risk off losing the ball with something like that is higher then using a much simpler action, and losing the ball on attack in football can be very deadly.
