but i freakin' love watching Aussie Rules on tv. i think it's the refs with their nice white coats doing the robot whenever someone scores (or whatever it is that happens when the ball goes through the goalposty-things)

If it goes between the inner, taller posts. It's a goal and six points.
If it misses the inner posts but goes between the outer ones, it's a "behind" and one point.
A "mark" is, basically, a pass (kick) reception; the pass has to go at least 15 meters. The guy who takes the mark gets a free kick from the point of the mark, or he can play on.
That's about all I know. :blush:
Look for "Mark of the year" at YouTube if you wanna see some good stuff. :thumbsup:

9. Where are you catching it on teevee? |
|
I haven't seen Footy on the tube in years. ESPN used to show it, but that was back when they showed tractor pulls.
Not that it matters, since I'm cable-deprived. But I'm curious.

12. It's on way too much at my house -- Fox Sports World |
|
You have to pay for just about the most expensive channel package possible and support Rupert Murdoch just to get the friggin' Premier League games just to watch Tottenham lose yet again...
Sorry, just swallowed my bitter pill, can you tell? :D

If I wanna get any Faux Sprots Nut channel besides Faux Sprots Bay Area, I gotta order The Most Expensive Cable/Satellite Package — which means I don't get to watch the Dodgers unless I want to refi the house. :grr:

college and nfl...but went with college because I can see/watch more games...:) My only gripe with the college system is the BCS, its the most skewered disgusting thing in c. football. As for the the NFL...I can hardly ever catch a Hawks game, but with them winning more, hopefully they will be showing more of their games on teevee...its a sad day, when my team is the superbowl loser, and yet, I can't find any gear anywhere, my hawks, nor the NW gets no respect...
:cry:
