I love football.I love the aesthetics of football. I love the athletisism of football. I love the movement of the players,the antics of the coaches.I love the dymanism of the fans.I love their passion for their badge and the colour of their team and their country.I love the noise and the buzz and the electricity of the stadiums.I love the songs.I love the way the ball moves and ebbs and flows. And the way a teams fortunes rise and fall,through a game, and through a seasonBut I love the football that brings people together.Across religious divides, geographic divides, political divides.I love the fact that for 90 minutes in a rectangular piece of grass people can forget, hopefully whatever might be going on in their lives and rejoice in this communal celebration of humanity.The biggest, diverse, invasive, or pervasive culture that human kind knows is football. And I love the fact that at the altar of football; human kind can come and worship and celebrate.

People moan at me for enjoying watching wrestling and then people come out and say stuff like this about football.
Nice, you love 22 men on a field.

I don't complain to you about wrestling, because I have no problem with it, still watch it myself some times, so why mention it?

People who dislike other sports they don't like themselves are dickheads. Wrestling, American football, whatever. The only sport that is truly shit is Cricket

That's a quality video. Football is one of the few sports that can be properly romanticized

Wait a minute I'd say cricket is better then Golf, how can you class Golf as a sport?

There's a lot of technique and skill required to play golf. It's not like they take a swing and hope for the best.
Not saying it's fun to watch but still.

I think taking balls to the face at 140+km/h takes skill and technique, he he he

Because Golf has a governing body. Any activity with an international governing body is considered a sport.
