Re: Football?
In Response To: Re: Football? ()

Mark's right. The clue is in the name; Foot. Ball.

Is that a photo of Australian rules football?

I think I saw a film once where the Aussie football players learnt ballet to improve their game. Hmmmmmm

I also remember on an episode of Buffy (I'm that age group ok!) where Giles, the slightly stuffy English Librarian/'Watcher' commented on American football by saying something like "I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby".

Anyway, joking aside, good luck to all your respective national teams but bad luck, coz England are gonna win this time!!

Maybe.

: as football, not rugby for cowards or what is pictured there,
: which appears to be rugby for Bee Gees impersonators :)
