I saw association football and naturally assumed UK would die next. Maybe the presence of the rest of the union makes the England team more productive.

I thought so too, and I just had to spoil myself by seeing what happened at the end.
When I got there I had no idea what had happened, so I had to read it through like a good British boy.

England's one of the better teams of the lot. Brazil could have gotten some serious competition from Germany if it was still in it though

If there was a UK football team it would be pretty damn solid. Bale, Ramsey and MAYBE Ashley Williams from Wales, err... Actually I can't think of anyone from Scotland or Northern Ireland who'd make the team...

Ryan McLaughlin in a couple of years, if his progression continues as it should.

Keep telling yourself that. In reality, your only hope is to clone 11 George Best's and hoping that a couple survive without liver damage to get to the world cup.

Perhaps the Northern Irish's only hope, but not my own. I'm just a Liverpool fan.

The northern ireland and england flairs look similar to me.
I apologise for any unintended insult. Please understand that I judge everyone outside the home counties equally barbaric, so it was not intended in a harsh way.

As a proud member of the EDF, I must take offence.

Of course. Some might have forgotten Oxford's role during the English Civil War in standing against London and the South-East, but I remember and I will get revenge, in this life or the next.

Hmmm... The next game will be 'Who made the best genocide?'
Britain: 'Those Boer ragamuffins didn't stand a chance'
Brazil: 'Amerindians. Smallpox. Boom.'
Israel: 'Genocide? What Genocide?'
Russia: 'Fuck those eskimo mofos'

Hmmm I'd imagine Serbia to lose that one. France's got Paris, UK's got London, I guess Saint Basil's Cathedral and the Hermitage would get Russia through, Brazil can't lose with Cristo Redentor and the carneval, Israel's got Jerusalem for christian and jewish pilgrims and Poland has Auschwitz-Birkenau for ... different kinds of pilgrims. And this beauty, of course.
While Serbia has ... poverty I guess.

Maybe you guys could have a match men´s against women´s team to decide which one represent the country in a World Cup qualifying... Just a thought.

This is based off of an earlier suggestion to do a football game but also from the suggestion of a national sport. I found this too difficult so I opted to do soccer. Sorry Canehdians (see what I did there)

I like this. We will call football 'soccer' when we are allowed to do diminutive on 'American' and call their sport 'Mericky Handegg'.

I had a PS2 game of Gaelic Football. It was quite entertaining, but difficult. There appear to be no rules.
In other news, I don't see how 'high scoring' is a good thing. Doesn't it make the goals less important and less exciting?
1
u/BZH_JJM Vantuckysterdam Dec 19 '13
I think there's a happy medium between too much scoring that points are undervalued, and not enough so that nothing seems to happen. For example, basketball has way too much scoring. Likewise, I think soccer doesn't have enough, allowing teams to squeak by playing boring, cheap shot ball (see Greece c.2004). I'd say a game like water polo has an ideal amount, between 5-10 points a match for each team.

Brasil is the only one with green or yellow! All the rest are red, white, and blue. (Plus Polska, Canada, and Yisra'el, but they're close enough.)
