The Break Room

Whee! My alma mater, the University of South Florida, just upset the nationally ranked Auburn Tigers in college football.

I know it's early in the year, but the USF program is still pretty young and to see them defeat Auburn in overtime was just incredible.

(Now I'm starting to re-think my opposition to the football team during my days at the USF Oracle...)

Yeah you're right Lantham, only for some strange reason you guys call it soccer whilst the rest of the world calls it football

As a side note, I'm not supporting football as I don't actually like it! And since I know nothing about american football, I'll echo Brody and say GO BULLS!

I could have sworn we had a "break room" forum for anything not MUD related, but either I just imagined that or it fell by the wayside when we switched forums. Anyway, seems like a good idea to add one.

In the meantime, "Go Noles!"

Ack - you Americans and your misconceptions about the meaning of the word Football.
Perhaps we should start a new thread about it...

Meanwhile - go GAIS!

Speaking of soccer, why is David Beckham such a wuss? Gets a paper cut on a million-dollar bill and suddenly he can't play.

WEAK!

Xerihae · 09-09-2007, 12:58 PM

Cause he's a footballer, and all footballers (with the exception of Vinnie Jones) are pansies.

Real men play rugby.

And this is absolutely the best time to watch rugby!

Erm.. go Seahawks?

Yep! You can gleefully watch as England get absolutely hammered. I doubt we'll make it to the final four this time around.

Personally I'm a FAMU fan, and I'm currently attending classes there because when I was younger I didn't have the dough to attend college. Our football program is not the best in the world, but the Rattler band program is second to none.

None of the big teams played well really, other than NZ. Probably a bit early to really know what'll happen. We'll see where it goes!
