Im guessing this is going to be aimed more at Oric as i beleive he actually watches the sport.
Phantom asked me if i wanted to go watch a game of it next sunday(at wembley i think) and i thought what the heck itll b a laugh.
Apart from watching some on Tv when i go to america i have no idea on rules or anything , more of a rugby guy tbh
sooo, if anyone knows of a nice website or something to easily explain the rules and stuff thatl be nice
Cheers
Plus i wanted to be the first to post in here

My dad gave me a brief rundown yesturday, before that you probably knew a lot more than me. From what he says, the 100 yard pitch is split into 10 yard sections, and the offensive team has 4 attempts to move play into the next 10 yard section, after which they have another 4 attempts and so on until they get to the end.
The quarterback gets the ball and can pass to line runners or try to throw it or run it himself, and the defensive team need to stop him getting to the next line, preferably tackling him further back than when they started.
Oric can probaly explain better than me.

Your going to Wembley?!?! Go. All I have to say. I am. So go.
As for the rules, i'll write a brief set later on.
Yeah my dad bought 4 tickets (the max i think), so me, my sister, my dad, and i got to bring a friend

Possibly, but I won't try and meet up. Last time I tried it at the last NFL game, we spent 45 mins trying to find each other. Where are your seats? I'm ten rows back on the bottom tier in a corner. I kick ass.
I'm not sure, had a look but can't remember them.

Back on topic - here is the exact guide that got me going. Not the small, speedy, Devin Hester-like that helped me, but an actual written guide.

And if you don't know who Devin Hester is, watch and learn. The first is him returning the opening kickoff of Super Bowl 41 for a touchdown (first time ever, and forgive the intermittent crap). The second is the reaction in Chicago to that feat.

He won't be playing, he plays in Chicago. And the guy on the N.O Saints which comes closest to him, Reggie Bush, is injured for 3-4 weeks and won't make the trip.
so how was it phantom?
how did it go?
who won? who played? etc
i rember watching it in the usa, my god it was boring lol, took them 30 mins to move 5 yards /yawn
I don't think they have gone yet lol!
Phantom said my last signature was a bit gay so i replaced it with this........
We haven't gone yet Brad.
