Why is it, that TALKING FOOTY to some people are extremely hard to do?

Question

I can not imagine talking footy to deedubya....simply because all he would do is talk about Collingwood. We would not see eye to eye on certain things and to be honest ....I would get sick of the bullsh*t he will come up with.

Answer 1

Hmmph, my daughter was in Oz on holiday and her Freemantle mate wouldn't let her buy me a Bombers shirt.

Answer 2

B***S*** is all you will EVER get from a Magpie mouth.

They see only 2 colours & that's that, no further discussion gets entered into. Whereas the majority of other supporters will at least listen to what you have to say. I'm a Lion supporter & still get given grief over the 2 flags that we got against Collingwood, the umpires this, the umpires that, the Lions played dirty.

BUILD A BRIDGE..............GET OVER IT!

Answer 3

Why can't he just give it a rest. AFL season is over so he should talk about the cricket anyway. lol.

Answer 4

You ask this question in here & a respondent answers saying that because they don't like what a particular person says they have blocked him!

Yes, in that case talking footy to some people is extremely hard to do.

I follow the Lions & don't like Collingwood because of their supporters ( plus their president & coach. And also some of their players! And also some of their past players. Plus some of their future players.). I don't even like the suburb!

Answer 5

bahahahaha

i think i used to b like tht...but i learnt from my dad and all th guys in th family....they taught me barrack 4 WC or be rejected, lloyds a poofter for kicking too many goals, etc etc. But now im over that...when I realised tht the other players were hot!!

I cant imagine talking to u  .... no offence but ur probably like duble or triple my age.

Id still talk though :) Im not THAT mean. lol

I wanna watch th cricket!!

Answer 6

WTF THE SPORT YOU CALL FOOTBALL IS NOT FOOTBALL IS IS CALLED AUSTRALIAN BOGAN SPORT FOOTBALL IS THE WORLD GAME SPORT

Answer 7

Mate I know where you`re coming from, some people are like a broken record! I find it hugely ironic the parrris has blocked someone for their annoying answers......all he/she does is whine about how the umpires help the interstaters - WTF? and c**p on about the swannnnies.

Deedubya may have a few roos loose in the top paddock, but at least his answers are entertaining.

Answer 8

Well take me bigkev!!

how i was kind to sea eagle when his team was playing our Queensland team

not that i could talk of football in the sense like who kicked what goal etc

but i could listen & be sympathic

Answer 9

Well we do all have to try and get along, but I agree B.K I find it annoying when some people can't move on from their pet subjects and say something interesting instead. I am used to this problem being a Swans supporter in Eagle-land! LOL

Answer 10

This is the sort of question that will get people in trouble.

We are all a little biased when it comes to AFL here as we all have our favorite team. Depending how one eyed a supporter is (and there's nothing wrong with being one eyed), depends on the response or lack of response you get from them.

In my opinion Hawthorn is better than Adelaide ........ I'm sure you'd disagree with me Big Kev. hehehehe

Just remember that everyone has an opinion, ...... But that doesn't mean you will agree with it.  Just another aspect of our great game.

Answer 11

Maybe you should just agree to disagree and move on..

Collingwood supporters are very one-eyed (myself included), but I dont think deedubya would dismiss everything you said.

I'm quite happy to discuss teams other than the Pies, but it just gets old when ppl just jump on the slagging off the Pies for no good reason bandwagon without the facts to back it up..

Unlike some, deedubya doesnt talk bullsh*t, he has tremendous knowledge of the game and maybe if you all stop attacking eachother, you may be able to have a civilized mature converstation/debate.

Answer 12

Kev I probably wouldn't rate as one of your favorite people either but I normally don't have any trouble talking to supporters of other clubs my brother is a Geelong supporter we give each good natured ribbing about our clubs and move on.

The other day i was not having a shot at you personally there are just times i get annoyed at people who get stuck in to the club I have followed for nearly 40 years as I'm sure you do when the same happens to what ever club you follow in the SANFL

but when its all said and done remember its just a game and sometimes we all take it a bit to seriously

Answer 13

mate,

i agree the bloke is a fool, i get so sick of his dribble i blocked him

Answer 14

Hey there Big Kev,

Yes I am a Geelong member from Kansas, but I will talk footy any time with anybody. That is the one of the things I like about Yahoo Answers. There are not many footy supporters here in America that can carry on not necessarily an intelligent conversation about Aussie Rules, but they just don't know anything about the sport. Like my co-workers, they only know what I have told them, no other background of knowledge of footy.

Collingwood people are the most one-eyed, but most on this site state an opinion and so be it. That is OK, I guess. I like Eddie McGuire, he was very cordial when I met him, but he is still a Collingwood person. I don't like Footscray, but I really enjoyed meeting and visiting with Doug Hawkins. I don't necessarily like the Swans, but when I met Bob Skilton, I felt honored. Rex Hunt interviewed me on a 3AW pregame in 1995 and that was an honor in the footy for a Yank.

Answer 15

Hey Big Kev, I would imagine you and I could talk about our beloved crows all night.

Mind you, I love a bit of banter back and forth, some of my good friends on here are rivals of the crows, Collingwood, North Melbourne, you name them they support them.

We're all gonna disagree about our teams, and we are all slightly biased with our own.

Lets have fun, someone once told me to "take it with a pinch of salt", best advice she could have given me.

Chill Kev :)

Answer 16

Now Come on Kev...That was really uncalled for.

Yes you both have different opinions but to call what he says is Bullshit is not on.

Just agree to disagree.

Edit: that's OK Kev,I understand how people get so passionate about the game.I just don't like it when people put others opinions down,that's all.

Answer 17

GO THE BOMBERS
