U2's Bono's comments

[scottieUK]

Apparently he said that football is just guys "dressing up as cars and crashing into each other"

As a Brit I can't stand those kind of stupid comments. Only people who don't know or understand the game say stuff like that.

Martin Johnson captained the England Rugby team when England won the world cup in Australia not so long ago. He also played football (American) for the Leicester Panthers when Britball was at it's best in the late 80's. So his comments on the sports are worth noting. He loves both games and couldn't separate them, he said that 'rugby is tougher but American football is more violent'. He does have issues with the Super Bowl champ calling themselves world champions though, which I kinda agree with but can see both sides of the argument.

So Bono, keep your comments to subjects you know about please!

Bono, just shut up and sing. You are a man with exaggerated sense of self importance. You fancy yourself a deep social thinker, when you are nothing but a simple minded, hypocritical, anti-capitalist proponent of socialist global governance.

Until there is another league as big or as popular as the NFL is in America, the Super Bowl Champs are the World Champs. Sports like soccer and rugby are played by mulitple nations and are super popular in those nations. I know Americian style football is played outside the US, but doesn't hold the popularity that it does in the US. We all remember the NFL Europe league. Those games didn't have close to the attendace that NFL games have. Well they might now with the way ticket prices are going, but that's beside the point. But I could understand if that guy had a problem with the MLS champs calling themselves World Champions. That is soccer and there is a World Cup that is played for to determine the World Champion so they would not have any place claiming to be the World Champs.
