Pass interference has become a joke though, must admit.

Dude, the defenders are at such a disadvantage. Mine as well not even draft corners anymore, just pick them up after the draft. They can't touch the WRs.

They have basically taken defense out of the game. Its pathetic now days. Can't hit people low and can't hit people high. What the hell is a defender supposed to do anymore?

Excatly I mean it's gotten to a point where every single Defensive play you gotta pause and wait to see if a flag was thrown.

Alright then,and just wanted to add in England we play it the proper way,not a ton of flopping like some of these countries.

I'll be watching the World Cup, I'll have to check it out. Sucks the US isn't in, but we suck anyways. I watched a lot of the EPL this year, I love the offensive teams like Liverpool and Man City. It really is beautiful the way they move the ball around.

You going to root for us if Costa Rica gets knocked out.

If Brazil or Argentina win the WC I'll get $1000 out of commission work I do for a high stakes handicapper

So as much as I hate Brazil winning it again I have to root for my money

But I do think England is due for a WC title and this team is quite talented and solid... especially now that Spain and Germany seem to have been dwindling down... also no Italy or Netherlands

It can be an enjoyable Sport if played the proper way,should adopt England as you're Team since the States aren't in it,we play a very similar sort of hard nosed style.

Can't let a few bad apples spoil the bunch mate,I mean Christ theirs some NFL players that flop in order to get penalties.

On the hole English players will normally get up after a trip and continue playing,not like these South American or Italian players that act like they've been shot with an elephant gun.

You've had some really legendary players mate,not taking anything away from you on that score.

And I do like the passion you're fans have,you remind me of the English fans in that respect.

Oh yeah, we are fire. I'm an AS Roma fan, always have been. Is quite a test to one's loyalty I gotta say, being a giallorossi...

I have been a huge EPL fan for years... especially early-mid 2000's when I was watching all games cause I was playing semi professionally myself... nowadays I sweat a game here and there but dont have much drive to watch 20+ games a week

Which Club did you support

Always been a Liverpool kinda guy cause they are very similar to AS ROMA imo... longshots that play good football! with hard aggro players, I loved Steven Gerrard... Luis Suarez was the shit when he was there...

But Arsenal was just a magical team during that period... Henry, Vieira, Campbell, Cole, Seaman, Petit, Pires, Bergkamp...

And Man U as well, Forlan, Scholes, Becks, Keane (LOVED KEANE), Van Nistelrooy... so many legends
