Is American football overrated?


Baseball is one of the most boring sports there is. Even baseball players have admitted it's boring. Standing around for most of the time. Nothing big happens most of the time. NFL leads baseball for that reason. What's actually treated like religion is actually soccer or futbol, that's the world's sport. It's only in America that football is king.
Most of the people who think baseball is boring 1) haven't ever played it, 2) know nothing about it and therefore don't understand its nuance and what makes it great, or 3) both.
I understand it, but it's such a slow pace and could careless about the aspects of it, because they are the changes are nothing worth waiting for. Football, you have hard hits, explosive jukes, ankle breaking jukes, long pass bombs and each games matters a lot since it's just 16 games for regular season and 4 more for playoff teams that make it to the superbowl. Baseball, most of the games are meaningless or so many games the whole season, most people don't care until playoff time. Whereas one loss in football can make a difference with winning the division or playoff implications. An nfl team has only so many losses they can afford because only a few games are played. Basketball is high scoring and explosive dunks, and alley oops, nice cross overs and happen almost every play. You have to wait forever for anything watch worthy with baseball. Football and basketball are more fun to watch and have more flash as a result. Baseball can be at least decent at a stadium, but not on tv.
Ha ha, are you trolling? Clearly football is awesome. Both college and NFL are great, top TV shows.
Nope.
Both baseball and football are boring, I think, because I am so bad at throwing. I can throw like 3 feet. I fail at ball sports or anything having to do with throwing things.
Sounds like you just haven't had enough practice!
It's fine to like football but people who obsess over it and like decorate their house with team stuff are kinda sad lol

Personal preferences. Don't forget a lot of the hype around football is intentionally generated by NFL marketers. College football, on the other hand, seems to have a life of its own.
Most sports are boring to me. I really don't get how it's entertaining. Sports in general seem overrated. I couldn't just sit there and watch it.
Even the Olympics? The Olympics are great.
Lol. That is putting it too far to call it a religion, it does not nourish your spirit.
That's how people treat it. You must not live in the States.
I do and its sad.
It is.
