Amerifag here.

I'm curious, in Europe does anyone even know any NFL or MLB team names besides the Yankees and Giants?

Honestly, the Average America only knows Manchester United and David Beckem(IF that at all), I'm just curious as to what the average European knows about America teams/players.

inb4 cancerous Euro vs American shit.

Britfag here - I used to have a black Raiders jacket with massive print all over the back of it when I was 14 as all the hardcore older guys in my school had them and everyone thought it was the dogs bollocks, but I knew fuck all about amerifag fatball.

Other than that, the only ever time i've paid attention to the sport was when i watched a superbowl in a hotel room once. I could name some teams from the MLB and NFL if I had to, but as far as players... pssh, fuck knows.

Britfag here -

MLB teams i know of - Angels, Red Sox, Yankees, Dodgers.

Hey Europeans, what sports do you have besides soccer?

Cricket? Rowing? Ha, don't make me laugh. Your World revolves around your boring failball. At least here in America we celebrate diversity. Let me guess, was it rainy and dreary in England today? How many non-white people did you talk to today, for those of you that ventured outside of your loft?

We have Baseball, a sport that is now as Worldwide as Soccer claims to be, Basketball, which is approaching that claim, and the great old American game Football.

Also in b4 some retarded Eurofag bitches about it being called Football for the 5000th time. I know you were to drunk to remember the last time I told you this, but football was not named so it would piss off greasy retarded European virgins in the year 2008, but was named instead to distinguish it from Horse racing or Polo, WHICH WAS PLAYED ON HORSEBACK. Football was PLAYED ON FOOT. They didn't follow your totalitarian, ONLY SPORTS WHERE THE FOOT TOUCHES THE BALL mentality, because simply they didn't care.

And why should you give a fuck what we call it anyways? If you don't start walking the line, we're gonna kick your ass like we did in the Revolutionary War. Or maybe we'll wait until you guys piss off some dirt country and trigger WW3, and then sit on our asses and laugh at you. Remember, if it weren't for old Dwight Eisenhower, you'd be typing auf deutsch right now.

Eurofag here. I'm a big NFL and NBA fan and have been so for many, many years. I even watched the recent draft on nfl.com and I plan on watching the NBA draft on the 26th. I also play FF and FB every season. I recently got a satellite so I'm watching the MLB for the first time in some years, however since I don't know half the players it's somewhat hard to get into.

Soccer will always be my favorite. But I love the amrican sports as well. This combination is possible, believe it or not.

Germany here. I'm not a big fan of Baseball, but I've become a football fan over the last few years. My favorite teams are the Seattle Seahawks and the New York Giants (not only because they won the Super Bowl). I'll now recite teams from my memory:
Green Bay Packers
Washington Redskins
Oakland Raiders
Minessota Vikings
Miami Dolphins
New York Jets
Tampa Bay Buccaneers
San Francisco 49ers
New England Patriots (well that streak was bound to break. Tough luck it was in the Super Bowl)
Chicago Bears
San Diego Chargers
Indianapolis Colts
Dallas Cowboys
Pittsburgh Steelers
New Orleans Saints
St. Louis Rams
Huston Texans
Buffalo Bills
Philadelphia Eagles
Baltimore Ravens
Cincinati Bengals
Kansas City Chiefs
Denver Broncos
Jacksonville Jaguars

Red socks!

Not one NFL team.

Only the Celtics and the Lakers (cheers /sp/) in b-ball. But I actually don't mind b-ball, it's better than rounders or rugby.

NHL I know loads I used to follow it, and went over to see a few games back in 2001; Maple Leafs, the Islanders, and a NYR/NJD match at the square gardens. My unfortunately interest when the team I supported went bust. Then the inline team I for years played clasped... Though when a 14 year who practices twice a week, is good enough to get into a U-21 team regularly and number one goally in U-21 the quality isn't exactly gonna be that high. (inb4 Theo Walcott owning AC Milan at 18).. Then the lock out. Which I think/thought was completely unprofessional for a bunch of highly paid professionals. After that I kinda lost my passion for it.. got into my music a lot more, and picked up watching lots of football (soccer).

Oh and some red top tabloids blamed NFL for England losing the game that effectively knocked them out of Euro 2008.
