Arena Football - Why Arena football is a poor excuse for football!

chriso_cd
so heres the thing.. ive been watching the AFL because there is no real football on right now... and i cant believe they call this football!! if you ask me, the AFL is where the wanna be's of the NFL go when they dont get drafted.. because there just not good enough to hang with the real football players! i mean look at the facts: the field is half as long and wide... an excuse for not conditioning; the rules are bent... an excuse for breaking them!; and its played indoors!... an excuse to look cool by hitting into the walls, and to get out of the weather where the real men play! if anyone has a different view on this.... i will keep an open mind... but for now, the AFL is NOTHING compared to the real NFL!

Well, that then raises the question - why on earth are you watching AFL anyway? I agree, AFL is not real football, but mind you, several variations of football have come with the history of the game. NFL's a standard we all know and love because it's a good one. There are others, but ... well, obviously they're not respected. And one thing:

and to get out of the weather where the real men play!
Really? I personally don't see much difference between playing outside and inside. Then again, I don't mind playing in rain or snow. Meh.

Well I know Kurt Warner is the only NFL player who came from the AFL to make it big, as in winning the Superbowl Big, but its not the matter of wannabe football players as the CFL and Euro Football league is places were NFL players keep in shape. You be surprise how many NFL go back to the small leagues to play, because its not about the cash its about the game. Yeah AFL is a cheap version of of the NFL, remember the XFL, I doubt anyone but me remembers that football league.

  4. Should Technology Be Brought Into The Game Of Football?
    (1)
    Many times if you look over history there have been controversial incidents within football, mainly
    goals, should football, FIFA, UEFA, or the FA try and bring in new forms of technology to get these
    key incidents right? The first few that bounce off the top of my head are: - Hurst vs Germany (

    hangs out. So it's easy to recognize the same players. It's fairly active throughout the
    week and weekend with a diverse amount of players from the United States to Australia. Because
    it's a community of people, the competitive atmosphere is very high. We all are usually on a

    felt the need of charity in our hearts and have we prepared ourselves to lend a helping hand?
    Unfortunately, those of us who are left with surplus still want to build up treasures for us and our
    children. In short we make an idol out of money. Andrew Carnegie, a Scottish born American

    So i have ( for an unknown reason ) been reading and watching quite a bit of American Football
    related Fiction ( Bleachers and Playing for Pizza by John Grisham and Friday Night Lights, Remember
    the Titans and Varsity Blues mainly )and a few questions have popped up: 1: What does being an All
    American mean? 2: When Teams win a State title, doe they then go on to a competition between the
    other State title winners to find the best in the country? 3: why are the plays so scripted, can

    season, and we lost with the same score.... it sucked but it was fun... I'm debating whether or

    Right having played for a bit here's what I'm noticing. I haven't spotted a difference
    with scouting. The closing down thing obv. Too many fouls from crosses. Too many penalty claims.
    Seems there is plenty controversy in every game. Game seems a smidgen faster to me. Saving
    especially. Scout reports that suggest a guys character is "run of the mill" is just silly. I
    can't find a button that takes me to my squad page, is there one? I'd rather go to squad
    page than tactics for "pick team". As in FM07 we need something between "disappointing"....

  13. Ceiling Fans A Poor Mans Air Conditioning.
    keeping the house cool on a budget. (3)
    Hi I discovered this a long time ago and it works rather well. There are a few tricks to keeping
    cool on a budget as many do not want to buy a AC unit and those in apartments who do not want to pay
    the land lord a large monthly fee. Now main thing that a ceiling fan does is eliminate dead air or
    rather it keeps the air in the house moving. Dead air in your house can cause you to bead and sweat.
    Now you do not need expensive fans but they should be able to keep the air moving. Your main focus
    is the areas that you spend most of your time. Where you watch tv, sit and r....

    school).I like the early in the year part, but not the early in the day part. Should I go to this or
    just go and do the regular conditioning in? I always like the extra practice, but I can't get up
    early. What do you think I should do?....

    It was 3 years ago. We were leaving Chapters (Bookstore in Canada, I don't know if it exists
    elsewhere) and I noticed on one of the tables a book someone had left there titled "Rich Dad, Poor
    Dad - What the Rich Tell Their Children About Money That the Poor Do Not". Not exactly being born in
    the richest of families, I was intrigued by what secrets might lie within this book. Secrets I
    would never learn unless I opened and read it's pages. I pointed the book out to my mom, she
    looked the price then put it back on the table. We left. I was kind of disapointed ....

    find the new game extremely hard. The most annoying thing is having to change tactics every few

    My windows media player 11 has seemed to have developed a problem. Well actulally it has always been
    doing this. I am running a P4 (2.8GHz with 512 ram, 64MB vram), and when I try to activate the
    visualization in WMP 11 all it is horribly slow and pixelized. I would guess about 5 fps Normally I
    would just accept this and keep saving for a new computer but the second that there is something
    covering even part of the visualization screen, it ups it's performance. If you put a separate

  23. Favorite College Football Team?
    (7)
    Who is your favorite college football team & why? My favorite college football team has to be the
    West Virginia Mountaineers. Mostly because i'm from West Virginia & I grew up watching them.
    Whenever they are playing I always have this wierd adrenaline from watching them. No other sports
    team ever gives me that kind of feeling, if any team comes close to doing that to me it would have
    to be the Cincinnati Reds. I guess it might just be because thats the only team I love to watch &
    can't miss a game. I also love going to the West Virginia Mountaineers football g....

    Hong Kong for example! Also,there are numerous graphical add-ons for this game,like face
