Scotland vs USA

[SF1900]

We have a country the size of one of your states... Your all so tough and powerfull, how did we manage to win any?

I actualy enjoy watching NFL, but you have to wake up and realise you don't grow 'special' athletes over there

Of course USA is not going to dominate EVER sporting event. I never stated that.

Don't take it so personal, broskie. Its just a bunch of adults playing games.

And the stoppage after each play.

The clock only stops "sometimes".

I think US Football is a great sport, but so is Football, Rugby, Cricket, Hockey, and a host of other sports.

The US did... between 1619 and 1865

Scotland has a better national anthem

america rules at invention. we invent pretty much everything tho 

think you will find Scotland has a history of great inventors

what you did invent

was losing wars

killing your own troops

causing unstability all over the world

and owning guns for the purpose of doing forward rolls in your garden shouting fuck yeah

We invented atomic and thermo-nuclear weapons. Making the world a safer place since 1945.

[CalvinH]

Didn't know they were playing.

[polychronopolous]

The rest of the world's athletes are a fucking joke compared to the United States.

"Scotland" 

[WalterWhite]

I'm surprised the US was leading at halftime.

Do they ped test rugby?

Pretty much everything of any significance for the past few hundred years was invented by Scotsmen.
Best engineers in the word too.

Why else do you think the chief engineer of the starship enterprise was Scottish (ok a Canadian Irishman who could murder a Scottish accent).

And groundkeeper willie in the Simpsons. A man who can wrestle wolves and win.

And all from a population of 5 million.

There isn't 5 rugby players playing right now in the world that are tough, strong or fast enough to play in the NFL.  IF they were they would come here for their millions contract.  They are not at that elite level.  They would get embarrassed if they tried.  

completely different games. not only do rugby players have to hit hard, tackle hard and be athletic... they also have to have exellent anaerobic and aerobic conditioning. an NFL player wouldnt last 5 mins on a rugby field without having to rest. it is 80 mins of non stop work. the forwards are 260-280 pounds and a fit as soccer players. most offensive linesman couldnt run down the street without having a heart attack.
