Want to be an American citizen?

[Shoma]

Love America! Especially atheists, who now are free to believe what they wanna believe. But they now complain about the Pledge Of Allegiance, saying "why under God".

THe dudes who made it believed in God so why, you who are born late try to change it. You're free! Just live life dude....

Ooops, still in my debate mode..Anywho...

I LOVE AMERICA FOR THE BEST AMERICAN GAME.....BASEBALL!!!

55%. But America sucks anyway. I'd move to Canada if I could. Word. And give it up for FOOTBALL!!! (which the american tards called soccer because they were so special they had to give it a special name. Interesting how the american football isn't actually about kicking the ball much. retards... )

Actually, American football used to have a whole lot more kicking involved. Players could drop kick the ball for points and do other foot related actions. Now, rules have been made against excessive kicking.

I <3 America. I wouldnt mind seing other places, but i wouldnt wanna live elsewhere

CFL rules incorporate more kicking of the ball than NFL, but even though I'm Canadian I can't stand watching CFL games. 110 yard field that is narrower than the NFL, 1 more player and 1 less down.

 

Single point, called a "Rouge"

Single Point or Rouge

If the ball is kicked into the goal area by an opponent, a rouge is scored (1) when the ball becomes dead in possession of a team in its own goal area or (2) when the ball touches or crosses the deadline, or a side-line-in-goal, and touches the ground, a player, or some object beyond these lines.

AR Team A kicks to Team B. B1 attempting to catch the ball on Team B 3 yard line, fumbles it and is tackled with the ball in possession in the Team B goal area. Ruling - rouge (ball deemed to have been kicked into goal area by Team A).

AR Team A kicks to Team B. B1 catches the ball in the field of play while moving towards own goal line and, in the judgment of the official, the momentum carries B1 into own goal area. Ruling - possession deemed to have been gained in the goal area.

After a rouge the team scored against shall next put the ball into play by a scrimmage as first down at any point between the hash marks on its 35-yard line.

If the single point was scored as the result of an unsuccessful field goal attempt the team scored against may elect to scrimmage the ball at any point between the hash marks on its own 35 yard line or at the previous line of scrimmage.

Note: For the purposes of this Article a drop kick or place kick shall, without exception, be deemed to be a field goal attempt.

Note: If during a kickoff the kicked ball proceeds through the goal area and across the deadline or sideline in goal without being touched there shall be no score and the ball shall be awarded to the receiving team at any point between the hash marks on its own 25-yard line.

 

Also, the uprights in the CFL, are in the middle of the endzone. Whoever thought of that should be shot and pissed on. I played 3 years of HS football, and I never could understand that crap.

Rules were made to reduce kicking in "foot"ball? Only in America.
