it's awesome that FC St.Pauli have an American football team though.
They also have a chess team...so that's not that weird i guess.

Gotta go with my two faves:
Dallas and Notre Dame
For some reason, I'm getting the sound of the video, but the screen says it's no longer available.
Is it just me? or are you guys having trouble viewing the video too?

You know - when they had the Euro American Football league - Germany was mad for it - they had like 3 teams I think!
Tommy - I just was in South Bend the other day - walking the campus - as much as I dislike the team, you really can not question that South Bend Indiana is a MECA for American Football - gives me chills
With that said - J - E - T - S Jets Jets Jets (and our new QB)
and of course - my college team - U-Dub - go Dawgs - woof woof

Very true. :D

Oh, and I finally found a Knute Rockne DVD, starring Ronald "The Gipper" Reagan. Haven't seen that movie in YEARS. Can't wait to watch it.

Hey guys just out of curiousity, is kicking a football that much different from a soccer ball? They want me to kick for the football team at school and I really really hate football and don't want to do it but they won't leave me alone about.

Obviously the shapes are totally different, but you already knew that. Its not much different at all. In fact, many soccer players are taken off the pitch and put on the gridiron because they are naturals.
I think your biggest problem will be the football players telling you that soccer is a girls sport-they work so much harder than soccer player-two a day practices-tackling-having to wear pads-etc.

Yea well if I decide to play and they start with that crap, they can shove it up their ass because then they won't have anyone to kick for them.:)
