I hate when Europeans judge us on our version of football. It’s like hey dude, I hate the NFL too. The culture is contrived and trashy. Lacks real passion unlike college football. And then they have a confused stare when you mention college football and greats like LSU, Michigan, etc. Now that’s real culture and passion that can exceed that of the Premier League. They’re just completely oblivious that CFB even exists..and they think we’re ignorant…

Quote to say Wow. I'm laughing most at you having Europeans ribbing you about sports. Where? You making up a thread is hilarious.

Who gives a frick what people from other countries think about what our pastimes are here?

In a nation that doesn’t care much for soccer, we can sponsor a World Cup without help, though we let Mexico and Canada help this time around.

University athletics in the rest of the World are negligible. There’s nothing to compare our system to anywhere else.

They wont ever grasp the fact that our sporting history and lore is in the college game. Which is much older than the pro game.

This is bs. They are fully aware how massive of a following college football has in the states. Just bc they may not be fans doesn’t mean they aren’t idiots

You’d actually be very surprised. Worked in a central European country and no one knew about cfb. Have a lot of family in the UK and Ireland (dual citizen) and it was on me to educate them on how the NFL is inferior—all of them didn’t know or care who LSU or Alabama was.

Dumbass. This is why that Frank guy from Germany on Twitter is so surprised by these non NFL stadiums outside of major cities.

Can I get first dibbs at chopping off your balls? We can’t have you producing now can we, you stupid frick?
