I've noticed that American sports tend to be turn based rather than in real time. Is there a reason why we like thoughtful strategy while Europeans tend to prefer twitch based reflexes?

Uh.. no? The person I was responding to was judging intelligence based on nationality. You've ignored that person though, nice bias there fag.

I don't judge anyone's intelligence based on what country they come from. But if you're an American and you're calling Europeans dumb... well people in glass houses and such.

Europeans know each nation likes specific sports. Americans don't.

Generally if you're a sports fan and you live outside of the US you know some places like the Indian subcontinent love Cricket, the south pacific Rugby, the US with their own sports, etc and you're fine with that.

But the US is like it's own little bubble when it comes to sports. They don't even like mentioning that there are other sports out there. So when they come to /sp/ and find out it's not 100% American, they RAAAGE hard. The idea of say the NFL not being the biggest thing in sports really annoys them for example.

tl;dr Europeans are ok with everyone having their own opinion, Americans aren't.

Nazi Germany was stretched way before the Americans decided to join. They were fighting on two fronts, and were losing battles to the lowly British forces.

have you heard of the term spheres of influence? do you understand the meaning behind the expression the enemy of my enemy is my friend? the treaty signed between the allies was signed just b/c it was of mutual importance to get rid of the nazis. imagine if the americans didn't come into the picture. yeah, you could say the nazis were beat on both fronts. now russians win their front and and the rest of europe whips german ass. what's next? do you think the russians would've fought just to save europe from fascism? the answer to that is a resounding no. and do you all know what would've happened next b/c europe could've fought the nazis and won because a stalemate would mean just a delayed loss for the germans but could have they defeated the russians after a costly war against the nazis?

I'm an American. I enjoy both Soccer (as I will call it only for clarification due to being an American) and Football. Both are fun sports.

Along the topic of history, I do thank France for their contribution during the American Revolution, you really allowed us to make the killing stroke. Now before I go too far remember that France refused to join until they were sure we were winning, so I only give you credit as far as making it so many unnecessary deaths were prevented from an even longer war.

More sprinting
Pads are there for protection of players, but are also used as weapons, since generally, the hits are much harder then in other sports.

Endurance sport
Constant action
Slide tackles can be a bitch
different styles of play, different strategies
