first time I got into sports this year and was wondering what do american bros do whenever theres no NBA/NFL season. Its already been a day and I'm already feeling the tilt
i just watch baseball while getting drunk with my bros
>>68746255
>first year i got into sports
Okay, so
A. you're a faggot
B. Watch baseball and go outside with friends, or you could be like a europoor and stare aimlessly into oblivion hoping for a "transfer", as those retards like to call it
>>68746255

Why not alleviate summer boredom with some CFL? It starts this week.
I'll answer any questions and give a description of the league.

Question 1:
Why is Canadian Bacon an American invention ?
Question 2:
How do you stay awake during a CFL game with zero running plays ?
>thanks.
>mfw the lions win da grey cup
The BC Lions are one of the few dome teams in the league. They play in a giant but mostly empty stadium. They're named after a cat and have a red haired (backup) qb, so they're the CFL's Bengals. They're the only team in the western timezone and play home games at 10 EST which is a big advantage.
>>68745928
It's Canadian.

CFL RBs run fewer plays, but for as many total yards. They often average around 5 yards a carry. With Goodell's rule changes, the NFL often resembles the CFL in number of running plays.

Are you good at playing a sport, /sp/?
I qualified for the national U-18 football team selections back when I was young but had to withdraw because I decided to finish my Biology degree instead. I regret it a little bit desu but I know this was the right decision.
>>68745341
I used to play as a Goalkeeper. Have to say, i wasn't half bad but then i had an injury and never fully recovered. So yeah, life sucks.
I played baseball and footy.
I was okay for high school level but never had the makings of a varsity athlete.
>>68745442
>i had an injury and never fully recovered
What happened?
>>68745476
Can understand. Larger countries have higher competitiveness. I started football when I was like 4 and never really felt the pressure of rivalry. Not because I was particularly good, but because very few here train aiming to become pro. IIRC baseball in the US is competitive starting very early (Little League and whatnot). Don't know about football there.
>nothing to watch tonight

m8, it was mental
the shitposting was unreal.
this was at the height of the "yuros vs amerifats" era as well where we would have daily threads slinging shit at each other. the rivalry between americans and europeans back then was very heated.
people were looking forward to this game for months when the draws were announced, it was billed as an /sp/ megabowl. then when the match finally came it was incredibly shit. but when that goal went in yeah the shitposting was as you would imagine. that the US won it 1-1, that england didn't even...
Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
No because the yanks realised that we literally fathered their shitty nation and fathered the sport we were playing.
Also, Robert Green was a CIA agent.
Where would they finish in the Euros?
>>68744384
Quarter or semi depending on opponebt
>>68744384
They would make it out of the group stages, that's for damn sure. They would get knocked out by a team like France or Spain. They could comfortable get to the quarterfinals.
>>68744384
Round of 16 or quarters depending on opponent
It's easy, just remove the goalkeeper role. Have only eleven outfield players, none of which can use their hands. Make the goals smaller if necessary.
This pretty much solves everything.

Why not just get rid of draws

Who qualifies from Boreball to make it a clean sweep?
Nobody pays attention to the baseball draft
>yfw its Bryce Harpers time
>>68744111
This honestly. When it takes players like 4 years to make it up, the draft is boring
