  1. No, its specific in the US and even European football is mostly consistant of americans it really makes no sense to add it


  2. No, you just said it yourself. AMERICAN FOOTBALL, no one else plays our sport, too many injuries in the olympics, nah it wouldn't work out to well. Maybe in the next 20 years when other nations try the American version of Football, but again no other countries play american football except for Canada.

  3. No do you really want a bunch of Felons that are really only a 1/2 step above Professional wrestlers representing our country?

  4. Yes, it should.  And I said that I thought the Olympic team would consist of the Pro-Bowlers...

  5. lmao

  6. Ya it should

  7. I don't think it should be made an Olympic sport, although I love the game.  First, football players need time to recover.  You really can't play more than one game a week.  The Olympics only last about three weeks, and that's not enough time to get every country to play and get seeded to determine the winner.  Second, would it be in the winter or summer Olympics?  While I know that football players are supposed to be able to play in a variety of climates, extreme heat and extreme cold make playing more difficult, and sometimes add so much of a distraction they take off the competitive edge so the players are playing against the weather more than their opponents.

    Not to mention the fact that during the Olympics there are preseason games to play, with the regular season being just around the corner, for pros, and for college football the season is about to begin too.

    And football is played in other countries.  I was witness to the 2004 World Bowl held in Koln, Germany between Berlin and Frankfurt.

  8. NO. because the REAL  football is already an olympic sport. the world wide football.

    ...american football? ..??? american handball! ...right!  

  9. No. There are only 2 countries in the entire world that play it.  

  10. What other countries play football?  As much as I like American Football, it is not popular world wide.
