Stuff you could NEVER get into

Agreed on the soccer thing. I used to play out, then golie, then I stopped playing it. As the years go on, I started to dislike being constantly kicked in the shins, and having balls kicked into my face.

And part of the confusion might be that everyone else refers to it as American Football and Football, and don't see why we can't do the same, except here American Football is just Football. Same problem with hickey sometimes. In some places (warmer places), hockey refers to the field game. In north America, Hockey always refers to Ice Hockey, and the field version is always Field Hockey.

I actually can't get into field hockey either. All the sticks are right handed (its actually a rule), and I shoot left (I also golf and bat left, even though I am right handed). Besides, real hockey is more fun.
