How can I learn about football, both college and NFL?

Generally, I'm not a big sports fan. Alot of my friends watch football, but I never got into it because I don't understand the game. How can I learn the game, so I can become more involved?

Watch the games and read the book. I started to watch football 1997 and love it now.
Definitely watch the draft coming up in a few months, as well as the Super Bowl. These are the two main events ever created in modern footballdom. Once you see these, the basics have been covered. Who Dey!!!
read up!
I am from Australia and i live football(Gridiron).

you need a rule book, read it until you understand the rules, then get on the net and review the seasons stats @www.nfl.com

Play some madden2006 on console and buy both the pro football andcollegefootball annual previews and watch the draft.

This should make you understand the game and the players!
go to nfl.com or go to google it
Sit down next to somebody that knows the game well and watch a game. Never stop asking questions. Keep watching and watching. Then go out and play it a bit. You'll never learn without experiencing it. You have to experience it to know exactly why they do some of the things they do.
Watch it on TV...you don't have to watch every game...but as long as you watch it once in a while you will catch on. Also, you can find someone who knows a lot about it and ask them.
Subscribe to Sports Illustrated, read columns online on si.com, sportsline.com, and espn.com, and watch ESPN an hour a day. That's not to mention watching as many games as you can find on TV, and reading your favorite newspaper's national sports section.

Do you think the nfl needs to put restrictions on its players?

The whole PacMan situation and Tank johnson where they were caught with weapons or their "friends" were caught with weapons or doing illegal activity. And recently with the whole Sean Taylor incident which i completely understand he wanted to be with his family during a time where there might of been threats or something going on with his house..but i think he should of just taken his family to one of the redskins facilitys and i am sure snyder would of taken care of them...and then with charels grant at some club. what are your feelings about this?

Do you think the nfl needs to put restrictions on its players?college football

The NFL should put clauses in players contracts that if they do illegal activity that they get suspended or lose money. Well you have to keep in mind that whether they like it or not these are million dollar athletes! And they need to have higher security levels and body guards...i guess they have too much pride. Its sad seeing these players get killed and harmed, when it could easily be avoided.

Bunch of hoodlum gang bangers
no, the teams sponsors need to call the team and say we will not support you if you have those type of players on your team.

They should allow teams to have sponsors logos on their uniforms, then they would care more about who is wearing their symbol, and teams would be more selective.

im not positive i think dwight freeney from indy is the smallest and as you can tell it doesnt stop him from making plays even though he may be going against an offensive lineman that outweighs him by 100 lbs

Elvis Dumervile is one of if not the smallest DE in the league. He's shaping up to be a pretty darn good player.

http://www.nfl.com/players/elvisdumervil...
The smallest weight for a DE I know of is Mathis from Indy around 245. Bennett from the Buccs is also 245. Average I would guess, in 4-3 defenses, is 265. In 3-4 it would be more like 285.

Freeney is 268, Dummerville is 260.
Elvis Dumerevil (Can't spell today) He's like 5'11 and i think the average is like 6'5

Does anyone else think that Mike Vick form the NFL should have done to him what he did to those dogs

I think if someone kills a dog, cat, or any other pet they should also die. Some may think I鈥檓 taking things a little to far but i believe a person who could commit such a crime (killing dogs by shocking them, hanging them, and drowning them when nothing else worked b/c he did not win a bet) should be punished the same way鈥eath.

Does anyone agree?

Does anyone else think that Mike Vick form the NFL should have done to him what he did to those dogs?nba finals

A life is a life and he should suffer the same thing that he inflicted on another living thing.

maybe he should be stoned to death. Report It


Wat are u a fuckn idiot? A human life is equal to a dogs. I love dogs, but theyre not people. Go fuckn join peta and stop eating meat u raving lunatics, ull fit rite in with the rest of those fuckn wookies. Report It


What he did was horrible, but you can't compare a human life to an animal. By saying "A life is a life %26amp; he should suffer the same thing that he inflicted on another living thing." you're saying that if you swat a fly you should be swatted to death as well? A fly is a living thing. Report It


you say u believe in dealth penalty for someone who kills another person. well whoever gives the shot is just as guilty as the first person, taken a life is taking a life Report It


get real u losers, they were olnly dogs for christs sake Report It


NO, But a Lifetime Ban from the NFL would make more sense.
No, jail time is fine with me. Just because he did something horrible doesn't mean we have to stoop down to his level.
Human life=dog life? get a grip on reality

so everyone that eats a burger or a pork chop should die to?
no i don't agree u crazy so what do thin k of our president invading and killing all those in irak?
maybe you should move to Saudi Arabia or something, that is kind of how their legal system works, but here in America we barely even kill murderers much less some one who kills a worthless mutt
i would have to disagree with you. I dont think he should die. But he should get punished to the full extent because he is famous. everyone knows who he is. Kids look up to him. wtf kind of example is he setting for them by dog fighting. god damn. not only did he kill innocent animals but he also corrupted the minds of americans children. thats F******* MESSED UP. He should like have to fight someone to the brink of death and see if he likes it. he is disgusting and creul and he will burn in hell when his time comes. :)
NO! I am an animal lover, but animals are not people! He needs to ride the prison bench for a while, and no more NFL. We should NOT torture him him or anything like that. You are as bad as he is!
Killing him is a little excessive, but I still think he should get alot of jail time. He should never have hurt those poor dogs in the way he did. He shouldn't have hurt them at all. It's not their fault they fell into the wrong hands.

I also heard on the news earlier that "bodyslammed" a few until they died.

They've also said that the dogs that are left are scheduled to be "put down" soon.

That, I'm sure, will not happen.

Anyway,

I agree with you for the most part:)
Maybe not die, but a warning should go out to all women, when they see a man being violent or brutal to an animal, they can expect to be knocked around and have their children suffer from abuse too.

Women need to let men know they reject this behavior and want real men that are psychologically sound and not cruel.
excessive I think.

An eye for an eye leaves everyone blind-Gandhi
I glad your not a judge. You probably give me the death penalty for accidentally running over a squirrel or a dog.
Do you believe in the death penalty for people who murder other humans?

What he did was wrong, but I wouldn't say that he's worse than or even as bad as murderers. Think your solution is a little much. Again, I think what he did was wrong, but you also got to remember that he wasn't the only one involved, so it's not like he personally killed every dog there. Doesn't make what he did any better, just don't forget that he wasn't the only one involved here.
Yes, I agree. He is just a worthless bum, and has no feeling for animal life. He should be put to death. The world would be a better place without him.

What's the worst play you've ever seen in an NFL or college game?

I'll give you an obscure one:

At a University of Colorado football game a few years back, our punter absolutely SHANKED a kick nearly straight at the moon. It finally came down about 8 yards past the line of scrimmage and took a monster hop backwards. The punter ran up and touched the ball to prevent it from losing more yards. Thus, the punter actually DOWNED HIS OWN PUNT!! I've watched a lot of football and never seen it before or since. Now that is sucktitude.

What's the worst play you've ever seen in an NFL orcollegegame?nba trade

Has to be the Jim Marshall wrong way run to his own end zone after recovering a fumble followed by throwing the ball in the stands for a safety.

What's the worst play you've ever seen in an NFL orcollegegame?nba season ,nba teams

I'd say the Bill Gramatica field goal celebration where he rode a unicycle into a drum of gasoline, causing an explosion that burned 85% of his body.
...the most recent one i can think of is the denver broncos special teams...specifically the punter laying on his back and flailing as devin hester sped by...classic
pros: back in the day the giants had the ball deep in their end of the field, the lead, and about six seconds left on the clock. they were playing the eagles, and instead of taking a knee, they decided to run larry cszonka(?) up the middle. FUMBLE! herm edwards who was a safety at that time for the eagles scooped up the ball and ran into the end zone for a eagles victory.

college: the time that TCU player, (also back in the day), came off the sidelines to tackle a runner headed for the end zone. that is the funniest thing i've ever seen in a game. the runner was going down the sidelines with nothing between him and the goal line. then out of nowhere this player on the sidelines jumps out and tackles him. (ref's awarded the touchdown)
Aaron Brooks "passing" the ball backwards after escaping a sack.
In the super bowl when Ben was down like a yard before the Nzone and they called it a TD.
Running the wrong way in the Rose Bowl is pretty dumb I forget his name though.Jim Marshall also did it with the Vikings
When I was 4 years old, I saw a dog named "Sue," she was a beautiful dog, and I was a beautiful Jew. We lived in a house so big, and every morning we would dig, for the treasure we craved, until Sue went to her grave. I never found that treasure, but now I dance for pleasure.

Will there ever be another good asain player in the NFL?

Is troy polamalu asian because he is the only good 1 in the nfl.

Are there going to be any other?

Will there ever be another good asain player in the NFL?nba score

Will there ever be another good asain player in the NFL?jerseys ,nba teams

There was a linebacker for the Cowboys a few years ago that was of an asian descent.
polamalu is polynesian and i remember a guy named dat nguyen whose asian but there are not too many

Timmy Chang???
idk but just like in the replacements, sumo wrestlers wold be the best offensive line ever.
Years ago the Rams had a starting quarterback by the name of Roman Gabriel who was Filipino.
being asian myself it's rare to see any over 5'7" anyone lower than that can't survive in the nfl. but i'm pretty sure in the coming years there will be some.
u mean hes samoan
