Yes you buy them from special breeders, then raise them yourself.
They come with prepackaged Ninja-huntering software plus weaponary. They also make mean hedge trimmers.

Rugby Owns.

Football (http://www.pupinc.com/gallery/hawt/index.html) is good.

Never played american football, but it sounds really fun.

Our PE teacher, who is English and plays football every week for a club still now, went to uni in America and he said that yes, they DO wear pads, and yes, there is normally about 5 seconds of play before the whsitle goes, but it's 5 incredibly intense, crazy seconds, and it does sound like brilliant fun.

God, you know who i sound like?

Pimms o'clock! 3 of you, one of me! 10? Well, if we don't mind sharing glasses...

I personally believe that football was a game made for our resident asylum community. The action lasts, if you can believe it, less than five seconds, and is fucking boring: Everyone but the QB and a couple of rushers just tries to hold the other guy off. Plus, professional football playes have an average lifespan of around 45-50 years :eek:

Its called socker people, not football. Football is a very different sport. Damn brits :p


Actualy to be honsest the brittish way of refering to those sports makes alot more sence. American Football dosen't even use feet except for kicking off and field goals. Socker uses feet alot more and thus fits the name football much better.

Soccer you mean. Soccer is the only sport I can play with any skill... I hate football and basketball, I cannot play them... so therefore they suck.

I would explain why F***ch is censored but i dont have 300 years :(

The beautiful game is called Football not Soccer, and i dont really understand why they call the American version Football because yer foot barely touches the ball

I know why. It's because originally, in England, there were two games, both called Football, which are known today as Rubgy and Football, in England. Now, it wasn't until the 1700's, approx, when schools like Oxford and Cambridge started making rules about all the games and giving each other matches, like how we know them today, as opposed to mass, 400-aside mass kickabouts with pig spleens. However, by this time, we had already colonised parts of America, and so over there, there were still some who called Football Football, and some who called Rugby Football.

Now as you know, the North of England tend to play Rugby more [in fact, there are still small towns up north that call rubgy 'football'] and generally speaking, at the time there were more working class up north than down south, them tending to be more of the businessmen type people. So obviously, when they colonised the America's, all the businessmen were terribly business organising stuff and shooting Indians to play Football, so the only ones who played much sport were the northerners who played 'Football' [rugby]. As a result, the community that followed, made up of Englishment, Irishman and other Europeans, played a form of Rugby that got a bit changed over time, yet still called it Football, thus the strong correlations between Rugby and American Football.

By the way, I wrote this out, i didn't copy it from a site. And THAT's why you guys call Gridiron Football, when you hardly use your feet - because in rugby you DO use your feet a fair bit, especially back then when it was more like Aussie Rules [a similar thing happening there, when we colonised Australasia] and it slowly got changed over time to use the feet less and less.

So, there's your lesson of the day.

I don't mind American Football, once you get used to all the rules and stuff.

Still, why didn't you call American Football, Soccer? And keep football as football since you actually use your feet?

And wtf you on about "Brazil".... it's the european finals :p

Yup, we have so many Australians teachers, its unbelievable, though Australians are effectively English anyway. but the reason i said he was English was because i then went on to say that he went to uni in America, my point being that he has tasted both sides extensively.
