| Post subject: College Football (US variety, not that soccer rubbish) |
Any suggestions of where to catch some US college football games? I did the search and it sounds like the usuals like Bamboo and Malones might show a few games. Any others?
For those from the west coast, there is UW vs. Oregon (ranked 21) at 10am our time Sunday. Go Huskies!!!
As this is a night game in the states (10pm EST), I am hoping one of the available satellites pick this one up.
Please...any help is welcome! Thanks. |

From searching old posts I saw that Bubba's seemed to be the go to place to watch American football in prior seasons. I haven't seen anything about it for this season yet, but I'm interested in learning where a good spot to watch games at is as well. |

We show games all day on Sundays starting generally at Noon. They are same day delayed, and I play the best match ups in order that they are played in the U.S.
Next week I think we will open for a live showing of USC vs Ohio State. That will be Sunday Morning. KJ |

Or to see the real Football, Aussie Rules, head to the Bamboo at 12.30 today. Finals time, today Geelong v Saints.
None of this rubbish with big dumb guys wearing more padding than a chinese lingerie show. Just blokes with mullets going hard at the ball. Doesn't get any better! |

true....all true.....
OSU better play better than they did yesterday. That was a pretty good game, and maybe it shouldn't have been.
I think....THINK...the kick off will be at 9 a.m. our time. |

Well, I've watched AFL a few times, and the sight of these blokes running around with their little shorts didn't appeal (much) to me. I didn't quite get the meaning of "mullets" above and looked it up on answers.com. Below is what they have for a definition. Indeed, if he was going hard at the balls, it would strike consternation in my heart. I differ that it couldn't get any better than this however. Think I'll stick with my American football. |

haha....yes...what is up with the short shorts????
I think most rugby players would give a left arm to play and compete in the NFL. Actually, some of the elite have actually made it onto payrolls in America...only to be relegated to kickers.
Usually, I find people that take a stance that rugby is much tougher and violent than American football comes from those who've probably never played either outside a street game.
Here's a pretty good article, that compares the two, written by someone who's played both. I don't mind rugby, by the way, and enjoy ozzie rules a lot. But the argument is stupid that I hear over and over that it is tougher than the American version and the American version is for pussies.
I think the last thing you guys want to see as American football athletes organize into a real rugby squade. I think the trophies you have that float around between countries would have a permanent home in America.

Actually a few retired Aussie Rules players are heading to the NFL. Saverio Rocca and Ben Graham are playing at the moment i believe. They play as kickers. 10 seconds of game play, earn a few million a year. Nice work.
Funny how though they have to retire from Aussie Rules because they are too old and slow, but can still play NFL. Hmmmm, ponderment. |

and Rocco took one big hit last year on his first start and I guess that finished him. He no longer plays. Same as graham. They sure didn't last long. |

Aussie Rules, NFL, Rugby, they're all sports for woofters as far as I'm concerned.
Playing on grass?
In the summer?
It's sport, not a picnic.

Will the OSU-USC game be available live anywhere online? If not, where can I get a glimpse of it in real time? Thanks in advance! |

We showed it live and it was awesome....for about half the customers. ha ha. I didn't promote this one because I was afraid of over spill, and at 8 a.m. I would have hated to turn away people.
As it was, we had over 50 people enjoy the game and a soft taco bar.
I will start putting out a weekly game schedule by e-mail this week If you want on, please send me a PM.
DON'T FORGET ABOUT THE THIRD ANNUAL SHANGHAI CHILI COOK-OFF. PM me on this as well for details or how to enter to compete for BESt CHILI IN SHANGHAI. |
