Who dislikes football here at HBH?

Ok, so the Euro 2008 season has finally started, so staying up late won't look so odd.

But to be honest, I'm not really a fan of football (or soccer for the Americans) and after chatting up with a couple of hbh guys on msn, I realized that some of them either hate or couldn't care less about it.

So I decided to start this thread to see how many people here in HBH dislikes football, just for a laugh.

i don't hate it but i could really care less about it i like all the riots they have over the games though haha thats the best part :happy:

I really am not too bothered about football,

I have many other interests and personaly do not see the attraction to the sport,

I dont mind playing on a sunny afternoon down at the beach once or twice a year for a laught but other than that its just not for me.

Whats everyone elses opinion on the topic, Me and fuser would be interested to know.

Football …Its god damn football.

And Football is awesome would of been much better if England was in Euro . .Reason to skip work and Drink I say.

When I was younger, I played Soccer. It's fun to play imo, but watching it on TV or some other media would be like diving off a diving board into a swimming pool without water.

I don't like soccer, but I don't hate it. I'm not pitiful at it, I'm actually decent (well, when playing with my friends or in P.E. at school). I just don't like it very much. I'd much rather play (American) football, basketball, golf, tennis, or (sometimes) baseball. Or I can just post here and watch SportsCenter on ESPN… :D

Yeah, I like sports.

like to play, like to watch, but not particular fan. I much more prefer basketball or tennis, or some forms of martial arts :ninja:

Thank fuck someone else agrees! I edited the original post to support the fact that it is named FOOTBALL, NOT SOCCER!

I like playing soccer and watching the occasional game, but other then that i don't really place that much interest into it.

i dont care for soccer but every once and a while (when im really stoned or drunk) ill watch it. i like nija worrior more though lol

i like to play sometime, but my heart really goes out to basketball :love:

Football takes too much time on TV - and it's boring as hell. All the good shows are cancelled just because there should be hours and hours of football :angry:

yeah like one time there was supposed to show the final episode of Criminal Minds (season 2) and on the paper's TV programming showed the usual programming, until I turned the TV on at the exact time only to find out there was a football match going on. My sister remembers how pissed I was since it involved throwing stuff and screaming at trying to smash the TV (good thing they stopped me)

To make matters worse, on the following week, it started airing Battlestar Galactica, so I just bought the DVD to watch how it went.

and to jamie_90; I have to say that spyware is correct, since the football I'm talking in this question is also soccer. So your logic does indeed fail, I'm sorry to say so, especially with the double posting.

to system_meltdown: originally I wanted to say football, but I thought that if I use the word soccer, the damned Americans will at least know I'm not talking about NFL, thanks for changing it anyway.

"fuck America"…..Ok Bud :angry:.

I'm from America and I'll call it soccer ;). I hate soccer, its the lamest sport ever made. Foot ball and rugby are some bad ass sports. Basket ball is fun too but soccer is not a fun game to play OR watch in my opinion.

Most of us, HBH members, are guys. Most of those guys are complete nerds and think sporting is bad thing, because you can hurt yourself doing it or you can get tired. (Sorry for the stereotypish stuff) I am not like that. I enjoy all kinds of sports and I myself train at least 4 hours every week seriously. Not football, but that's not really the point. (As a matter of fact, we are ranked first in the national rankings for our age category.) Regarding football, I like to play it occasionally, with some friends. I wouldn't choose it as my profession, but I can understand some people do. I also like to watch a match on TV. I'm not that interested in the national 'eredivisie', but I do follow the European and World Championships and stuff like that. "Our country" beat the world champions with 3-0 last monday. I thought Sneijders goal was absolutely beautiful! :) I think we might make a reasonable chance to continue to the quarterfinals and escape the 'group of death' :D

4-1 Against France :D We'll continue to the quarterfinals!!! :ninja:

I'm in the varsity team in my high school American FOOTBALL. Wide Receiver. I live a double life most of my friends witch are a bunch of skater ,EMO ,and Goth kids don't even know that I'm a hacker except one and i kinda want to keep it that way. I don't care much for EURO Football.

are you peopl;e crazy? football is the greatest sport in the world and it is probably one of the greatest things on this earth

Bowling is the greatest sport in the world :P Football is just mass hysteria.

Bowling does not require any big set of skills apart from just aiming that ball to ensure that it hits down as much pins as possible .football on the other hand does. example -passing ,ball control,dribbling ,tackling ,shooting,heading.Not to mention off the ball movement and postioning.it is a game that requires some level of athleticism,fitness and yes ,brain power.it also provides great entertainment to the fans.just watch games of maradona ,pele,zidane ,charlton and beckenbauer.

I like football. I am from Croatia and Croatia beat up English footballers and now German footballers too lol we are great. WE WILL WIN THIS!!!!!(or at least 3 th position)

Ok, this is just my opinion, but I think commercials are better entertainment than watching football :D or something equally boring like ice hockey. Actually commercials can be quite fun/interesting sometimes ;P you can spot all kinds of mistakes/illogical things they put in them :D

that is true. they just want to sell products and tickets. but you have to say some of them are really funny lol

DAAAAMN, I can't believe that Czech actually lost against Turkey, Damn again!!!!!!!

lol did you see that that was great
