Well I don't really watch that much French or German football, but I'd say it's the most boring out of the other three.
I find it kinda sad to see no comments about the death of Tommy Burns on here.
I actually find it the least boring, and the most skillfull.Quote:

Italian football just doesn't appeal to me. It looks slow, sensitive, not mentioning the diving and the constant bitching to the referee (I agree that happens in other leagues too, but Italy especially) and the referee approaching scandals
I think thats just a stereotype.
If you watch any games from Inter, Juve, Milan, Roma, Fiorentina, Palermo, Sampdoria I dont think you'd be saying that. Roma play some of the most attractive football in europe.
Teams like Palermo (Amuari), and Sampdoria (Cassano, he really is back to his best) don't have an all around good team, but those two players I mentioned make watching their games alone.
Maybe some of the smaller teams can be called out for just being defensive, but I think thats like that in any league. They know they can't match up outright with the big clubs so they try and get the point.

PARMA, Italy (May 18) - A police officer was in a serious condition with spleen wounds following clashes with Inter Milan fans Sunday, local reports said.
Another officer was slightly injured in the clashes before Inter's game with Parma, the ANSA news agency reported.
Inter fans were barred from attending the game, which Inter won 2-0 to clinch the Italian league title.
The clashes involved fans without tickets attempting to climb over fences to enter the stadium. One Parma fan was slightly injured, ANSA reported.
Despite the ban, about 1,000 Inter fans still managed to attend the match.
After the game, Inter fans heavily damaged a school near the stadium, ANSA said.

American Soccer Fans Prepare For World Cup By Pushing Each Other Through Chain-Link Fences
CHICAGO—Nineteen soccer fans have been killed and 73 injured in a series of practice soccer riots conducted to prepare for the June 9 opening of the World Cup, in which Chicago-area fans took turns crushing each other against chain-link fences in local parks, soccer fields, and vacant lots. "Too many Americans think of 'European football' as an endless series of passes, an arbitrary and unfathomable penalty system, and little if any scoring," said 28-year-old hooligan-in-training Alec Murrow. "While those are important traditions, there's much more to the way the rest of the world celebrates the Beautiful Game, such as rushing the field if your team is losing, grunting like apes when a black player has the ball, and beating supporters of other clubs half to death in the streets." The rioters, all of whom follow European soccer teams such as Millwall, AC Milan, and Juventus, claimed that casualties would have been higher if not for the difficulty of maiming people without using one's hands.http://www.theonion.com/content/them...terminator.gif

This is the only influence we can find from European Football?
^^ happens all the time. actually too many times. kinda surprising this can happen in Italy though, after the fans killed a cop last season. you would think they stepped up the security.
I know it happens all the time. Europeans are fucking morons.
its called supporting the team. sometimes supporting goes over the top just a little.
Rioting isnt supporting,rioting is idiotism and...is just plain dumb. And Europeans aren't dumb,they just have more hooligans than they should.Here people stick torches into eachothers mouths in the name of 'supporting'.Supporting my ass.More like civil war.
