imagine if this was about football fans
I can only watch so much football as can a rare other people like me. If I am watching football I want the view of one position. I don't care that the quarterback got sacked on the play, how did the running back avoid the defense in his attempts to become open for a pass - or some such that I want to emulate when I next play. (i think that is a likely thing - I consider football too dangerous to play so I'm guessing - in reality I'd prefer to see other sports that I'm likely to play)
edit: spelling
i can't make heads or tails of this reply :P
"how did the running back avoid the defense", i'm assuming there should be a "to" in there? who runs back? i can't parse it...
They went with American football, where “running back” and ”defense” refer to positions.
...huh.
The game most of the world calls "football" is called "soccer" in the US. We have a very popular game we call "football" in the US that is unrelated to "soccer", instead it is related to rugby (still very different from rugby, but there is a relation)
strange
Welcome to the world. There are strange things all over. Sit back and enjoy laughing at the ride.
oh i gave up on that a long time ago
