He also doesn't understand American Sports. The most regulated game is most

certainly American Football. They have 7 officials on the field PLUS the video officials for f**k's sake. They also have a rule book like War and Peace.

His crap about drawing penalties - it's no different to drawing pass interference, holding or roughing the passer in American Football.

His reference to the violence is also bollocks. OK, in the USA there's not often violence in or around the stadiums, which are miles out of town - actually often in a completely different town than the name suggests - although it does happen. However many Americans have told me their cities are war zones after a loss. In particular residents told me that Denver is a no go zone if they lose - vehicles set on fire, shop windows put through and an increase in shootings (more than the average shootings which happen every f**king day in the USA without any sport to instigate it).

I don't know why I even typed that.
