The true story of the birth of Football...? |
The Settlers are offensive. As they march West, they carefully mark off land they鈥檝e gained on a grid, one yard at time. Their goal is to kick a pig鈥檚 skin between two palm trees in California. The Natives are defensive. Their Chiefs, the strongest among them, line up to push the Patriot settler鈥檚 tail back and deny them any receiving. The Government steps in. They鈥檙e the Referees. They get in the way, slow the pace and influence the decision. As the battle rages on, it becomes clear that the offensive always win. 鈥淣ot so!鈥?some will say, but it is true. It is true because the moment a brave snatches away the pig鈥檚 skin, he himself becomes offensive. He looks for slower warriors to block the angry mob whose pig he has plundered, and, as he runs down the field, he dreams about the goal and kicking balls. Football is America. Amen to that, brother...!!! Incidently, The History of "Whup-***" ties in nicely with The History of Football... no.... I Elizabeth the II have created football... sike...srry I didn't read any of ur additional details... I'm just being a smart ***.... -_- No, in ancient China people used to kick rocks into goals. Footbal is bloody England u idot! Yo! Holy, are you sure of that ? I thought the Brits invented bubbles and squeak, spotted dick and warm beer... There are documented examples of Asians playing something very familiar to football, at the time when your Brit ancestors were swinging by their tails from tree branches in Anglia. One of the earliest forms of soccer in which players kicked a ball around on a small field has been traced as far back to 1004 B.C. in Japan. With all due respect Sir, and I mean it in the most Y!Sincere way possible... I remember everything with my patented Quantum Pre-birth Photo Memory Enhancer from Fluffinox鈩? and I must say that I can not find any memories attached to this supposed "Football Pig Skin"...So, you are either crazy, a liar, or both you crazy feckin' liar!... Oooops, my apologies the light on my QPPME is off. Damn theoretical flashlight batteries.... I dream about kicking balls ... but only when I'm angry. good one. |
