I find NFL games to be much the same as proper football games in that most of them are not that entertaining. But then every now and then you watch an absolute blinder that reminds you why you put up with the dullness the rest of the time. They're still both more exciting than Kick n Clap though.

My mate was building it up all yesterday, and he was like it's starting it's starting...!!!

After 5 seconds of starting, the game had stopped, I turned it over then, I hate how the game has no flow to it, there's so much build up and excitement, yet the game doesn't do it for me.

Glorified Rounders.

Surprisingly, they're World Champions at that as well. :)

Well I was going to put it in the same thing in the main thread but decided that might be childish and annoying so I opened a thread for the detractors.

I just can't understand the hype hype hype. It has the basis for a half decent game and then they stop and start it every two seconds to show an advert.

And they have the gall to call the winners the world champions of football.
